1
00:00:00,430 --> 00:00:09,650
And to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indenisable, with liberty and justice for all.

2
00:00:14,020 --> 00:00:23,360
Okay, I will now go over the approval of the minutes. Has everyone read the minutes from the prior meeting? Yeah. Any changes?

3
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:33,260
I'll entertain a motion to approve. So moved. Second. Second. All in favor say aye. Aye.

4
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,560
All opposed, the motion carries.

5
00:00:38,580 --> 00:00:48,660
We'll now move into public hearing and consideration of approval of SUP 012620604 Taurant's Chapel Road.

6
00:00:49,570 --> 00:00:54,980
I'll entertain a motion to suspend the planning board meeting and open as the Board of Adjustments.

7
00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:55,600
So moved.

8
00:00:56,060 --> 00:00:56,780
Senator Second.

9
00:00:57,260 --> 00:00:57,520
Second.

10
00:00:58,260 --> 00:00:59,240
All in favor say aye.

11
00:00:59,580 --> 00:00:59,940
Aye.

12
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:02,340
Any opposed?

13
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:08,580
I'll entertain a motion to open the public hearing for SUPO 126.

14
00:01:09,020 --> 00:01:09,540
Some moved.

15
00:01:10,020 --> 00:01:10,680
Is there a second?

16
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:12,000
Second.

17
00:01:12,580 --> 00:01:13,100
All in favor?

18
00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:13,960
Aye.

19
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:15,600
Opposed?

20
00:01:17,180 --> 00:01:23,840
We'd now like to have the legal representative, Erica, to read the conflict of interest narrative

21
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:29,380
and verify that the applicant, excuse me, would like to incorporate it all provided materials

22
00:01:29,380 --> 00:01:34,520
into their testimony. And then we'll ask the staff to swear in those providing testimony.

23
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,540
Yes, I decide to confirm. Has any board member had any undisclosed

24
00:01:39,540 --> 00:01:44,060
exparte communications regarding this matter? Any financial interests in the matter at the end?

25
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:49,480
A close relationship with the applicant or owner of an effective property, personal bias or other

26
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:54,840
impartiality. No board members shall participate in or vote on any quasi-judicial matter in a

27
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,040
manner that would violate the applicant's constitutional rights to an impartial decision maker.

28
00:01:59,380 --> 00:02:06,140
In permissible violations of due process include a member having a fixed opinion prior to hearing the matter that is not susceptible to change

29
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:15,820
undisclosed as part of a communications a close familial business or other associated relationship with the applicant or a financial interest in the outcome of the matter as

30
00:02:16,300 --> 00:02:17,760
any more member any of these.

31
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:27,720
No. No. We need to speak up please. Say okay. Okay. Mr. Cole. Oh, I guess we have to

32
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,500
slump swear in the anyone providing testimony.

33
00:03:05,540 --> 00:03:11,840
So before getting into the facts of the case, just wanted to take a second to give the

34
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,700
boards' information on special use permits. This is not an application type that we see every day.

35
00:03:17,340 --> 00:03:23,100
It's really reserved for very specific sort of application types in the land development code

36
00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:30,160
that really don't really rise to the level of sort of a larger rezone or board approval.

37
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:37,960
But it's something that we may need some special standards to make sure that the proposal

38
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:46,740
is a good neighbor to the projects, to the properties around it, and then also to ensure public safety, health, and welfare in this case.

39
00:03:47,780 --> 00:04:02,740
So especially use permit is a board of adjustment application type. So this is a quasi-judicial hearing. So it will feel like what you may recall from a variance hearing, but it doesn't necessarily rise to the same level nor will the findings be the same.

40
00:04:03,580 --> 00:04:09,120
And so, like a variance hearing or like any other sort of quasi-judicial matter, the

41
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,720
decisions must be based on competent, relevant, and substantial evidence provided by sworn

42
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:14,340
testimony.

43
00:04:16,100 --> 00:04:20,520
Conditions can be placed on the approval, provided that, of course, they're related to the request

44
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,100
at hand on the property.

45
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,140
Conflict of interest, like we just discussed, must be disclosed at the beginning of the hearing.

46
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:33,160
One key difference is this is an approval by a simple majority as opposed to a four-fifths majority.

47
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:39,520
And I'm going to get a little bit more into the background of what findings we're looking at tonight and why in a moment.

48
00:04:39,740 --> 00:04:45,220
But just zooming out a little bit, this is a special use permit for, in this case, a large flagpole.

49
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,360
So this is the property in question.

50
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,640
So this is 2604 Torch's Chapel Road.

51
00:04:52,980 --> 00:04:56,160
So this is the former location of Lake Norman Chrysler Dodge Deep,

52
00:04:57,020 --> 00:05:00,260
recently acquired in operational as Randy Marion Lake Norman.

53
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,280
So it's a car dealership.

54
00:05:02,420 --> 00:05:05,300
It's been a car dealership for many, many years.

55
00:05:05,580 --> 00:05:09,780
It originally was built in the 1980s, expanded refurbished in 2004,

56
00:05:10,620 --> 00:05:15,760
and car dealership as a use is allowed under a conditional use

57
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,980
department that's still valid and active on this site.

58
00:05:19,860 --> 00:05:21,760
The property is zoned Highway Commercial.

59
00:05:22,060 --> 00:05:27,580
It is located in the Torrance Chapel Overlay and also in the Watership District.

60
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,420
Here's a close-in view of the site.

61
00:05:30,580 --> 00:05:34,840
As you can see, it's got significant frontage on both Torrance Chapel Road and is highly visible

62
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:35,640
from I-77.

63
00:05:36,420 --> 00:05:43,720
It's one of the key landmarks as you exit the interstate heading south onto exit 28, very

64
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,620
visible property from both directions.

65
00:05:47,740 --> 00:05:51,100
So there are quests before we this evening is for a special use permit.

66
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:58,140
So Randy Marion Lake Norman would like to install a flag pole that is 114.84 feet tall

67
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:05,140
and he would like to hang a flag not exceeding 1,800 square feet on the flag pole.

68
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,480
So the applicant this evening, David Cogel, is representing Randy Marion Lake Norman.

69
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:16,540
The underlying property owner is also given permission for this application to move forward.

70
00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:19,260
And so a little bit of backstory here.

71
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,600
Y'all might remember several months ago, we did amend the land development code in chapter

72
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:32,080
10 and chapter 3 to allow larger US and North Carolina flags to exceed the standards of the

73
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,920
code subject to the special use permit process.

74
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:40,260
So this is the first applicant looking to use the new process and the new findings in order

75
00:06:40,260 --> 00:06:41,580
to get a larger US flag.

76
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:45,420
And so here's that background.

77
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,380
So typically flag polls would be capped at 30 feet tall,

78
00:06:48,620 --> 00:06:51,660
40 foot square foot flag, and a maximum of three per establishment.

79
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,300
This sort of recent code change that we did was

80
00:06:55,300 --> 00:06:59,080
in response to an October state statute change

81
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,660
that prohibited towns from restricting flagpole height, size,

82
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:05,260
and or number for US and with counter flags,

83
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,060
for anything except public health safety and welfare.

84
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,260
And so that's what we did.

85
00:07:10,260 --> 00:07:14,920
We sort of aligned our code to meet the state statute or match the statutory standards

86
00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:19,420
but the statute wasn't very clear on what public safety health welfare was so

87
00:07:19,820 --> 00:07:22,660
you know we crafted some common sense findings around that.

88
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,740
So the purpose of the hearing this evening is for the board to hear the evidence submitted by the

89
00:07:27,740 --> 00:07:34,020
applicant ask questions of staff or the applicant and really gauge as to whether the evidence before

90
00:07:34,020 --> 00:07:39,020
you indicates that the property meets all seven findings of fact listed in the code

91
00:07:39,020 --> 00:07:41,200
and those findings are pretty clear and concise

92
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,080
and they get towards public health, safety, and welfare.

93
00:07:47,530 --> 00:07:48,410
These are the findings.

94
00:07:49,090 --> 00:07:51,370
All seven, I won't read these verbatim.

95
00:07:51,910 --> 00:07:54,770
You do have copies of those findings

96
00:07:55,370 --> 00:07:56,870
before you this evening on worksheet.

97
00:07:57,230 --> 00:08:00,070
So as discussion continues, feel free to jot down your thoughts

98
00:08:00,070 --> 00:08:01,370
because just like a variance,

99
00:08:01,610 --> 00:08:03,190
we'll have to, at the end of everything,

100
00:08:03,370 --> 00:08:05,010
y'all are gonna have to do some deliberation

101
00:08:05,510 --> 00:08:08,510
and make those findings based on the evidence discussed

102
00:08:08,510 --> 00:08:09,750
and submitted this evening.

103
00:08:09,750 --> 00:08:14,280
So here's some photographs of the property.

104
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,520
So here's the view from I-77.

105
00:08:17,260 --> 00:08:19,440
Again, very visual, very prominent from the interstate.

106
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,020
This is the view from Torrance Chapel Road.

107
00:08:23,260 --> 00:08:24,300
And my apologies.

108
00:08:24,460 --> 00:08:26,520
This probably could have been a better angle.

109
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:31,040
I'll try to get one next time that doesn't have power poles in it.

110
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,700
So here's exhibits two and three submitted by the applicant.

111
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,540
So this is an elevation view of the flagpole.

112
00:08:38,540 --> 00:08:45,280
So, it indicates that the actual height of the flagpole will not exceed 114.84 feet above

113
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:50,960
grade. And on the left, this is sort of a high-level map prepared by the applicant, indicating

114
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:57,120
that the property is over 500 feet from the nearest residential district. The flagpole's

115
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:03,340
located well away from the building that's on site. It also shows the distance from both

116
00:09:03,340 --> 00:09:07,540
the DOT readily aligned to I-77 and the McDonald's property line to the self.

117
00:09:09,660 --> 00:09:15,260
This is exhibit 4 submitted by the applicant, so this pertains to the flag radius requirement.

118
00:09:15,780 --> 00:09:19,400
So that requirement essentially says that when the flag is flying in the wind completely

119
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:25,520
unfurled and mounted to the flag pole, the flag itself cannot encroach over top of a property

120
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:25,840
line.

121
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,420
So this exhibit shows that that flag radius of 70 feet is well within the property boundaries.

122
00:09:31,860 --> 00:09:43,660
This is exhibit five. This is the collapse zone of the flagpole. Essentially, if the flagpole were to fall, it's the full distance of the height of the flagpole plus ten feet.

123
00:09:44,140 --> 00:09:52,740
So the purpose of this standard is to ensure that the flagpole, if it falls, will not fall on top of buildings or will not cross property or right-of-way lines if that were to occur.

124
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:03,180
This is Exhibit 6. This is correspondence from NCDOT, essentially confirming that there

125
00:10:03,180 --> 00:10:09,820
are really no sort of safety concerns associated with the roadways presented by this flagpole.

126
00:10:13,530 --> 00:10:20,190
So that sort of concludes the staff overview for the project. We are recommending a condition

127
00:10:20,190 --> 00:10:25,710
be attached should the board choose to approve this evening. And that has to do with verification

128
00:10:26,290 --> 00:10:31,550
essentially that if the flagpole is installed just as built survey to make sure that the height

129
00:10:31,550 --> 00:10:37,770
of that flagpole doesn't exceed 114.84 square feet. So just because this, you know, the applicant

130
00:10:37,770 --> 00:10:44,130
will get the ability to construct. After this SUP issue that this board is the final decision-making

131
00:10:44,130 --> 00:10:48,550
body, this is just sort of a standard verification condition that we put on projects like this.

132
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:56,540
And once again here are the findings that this evening the board will be expected to

133
00:10:56,540 --> 00:10:58,960
review against and ensure that are met.

134
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:05,580
So the property must be located non-residential district, 500 feet from a residential district.

135
00:11:06,020 --> 00:11:11,100
Flypool must be located in a defined rear side yard, must be located on the property so

136
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:16,420
that when the flag is unfurled, doesn't encroach past the property line, the collapse and

137
00:11:16,420 --> 00:11:22,380
requirement, the DOT verification, and then, again, special consideration if there's any

138
00:11:22,380 --> 00:11:25,180
other sort of unique concerns that may arise.

139
00:11:28,660 --> 00:11:30,720
And that concludes our presentation.

140
00:11:31,060 --> 00:11:35,600
The applicant, Mr. David Cobles, also here to potentially provide some more information

141
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,660
or take questions from the board about the proposal.

142
00:11:38,460 --> 00:11:41,780
Any questions from the planning board for David?

143
00:11:43,300 --> 00:11:48,600
Can I have a question, even though I'm not a voting member on the sure topic for the conditions

144
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,060
is it only for the U.S. flag and for North Carolina flag?

145
00:11:52,060 --> 00:11:53,980
Okay, per the code, that's correct.

146
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,540
The only time you can exceed is if you are one of those two flag types.

147
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,420
Okay, with none others, we'll now hear from the applicant.

148
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,220
When you come forward, please state your name, address for the record.

149
00:12:10,020 --> 00:12:14,320
Hi, I'm David Cobal, 111, Timberfalls Court, Moore's on North Carolina, 28115.

150
00:12:14,980 --> 00:12:19,680
As staff is reviewed, we do meet all the requirements for the findings effect.

151
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,960
So I'm happy to answer any questions you might have.

152
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,320
Mr. Temple prepared the link. Did you prepare the application?

153
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:29,060
Yes.

154
00:12:29,420 --> 00:12:30,880
If you wish to report that to your test.

155
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,760
Yes. Any other questions for the applicant?

156
00:12:37,900 --> 00:12:38,200
Yes sir.

157
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,160
Keith Hiker, is this a similar to the one in the state's bill?

158
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:41,880
Yes it is.

159
00:12:42,340 --> 00:12:43,400
A little bit smaller though.

160
00:12:44,140 --> 00:12:45,060
This is smaller than...

161
00:12:45,060 --> 00:12:47,240
This will be smaller than the one in state's bill because of the flagpole

162
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,000
high-through requirements in the property land boundaries.

163
00:12:51,340 --> 00:12:54,680
The one in state's bill is a 130-foot pole and a little bit bigger flag.

164
00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:02,900
Travis, Julian, what's the purpose for installing a flag of this size?

165
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:05,140
Uh, Rainy Mary and lack of big flags.

166
00:13:06,220 --> 00:13:08,000
I mean, that's, that's really it.

167
00:13:08,140 --> 00:13:11,440
I mean, you know, he's a big supporter of Edren's plow sport of America.

168
00:13:11,580 --> 00:13:14,800
And all of his dealerships have large flags at them.

169
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,400
It's just part of the staple of his branding.

170
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:17,960
Okay.

171
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,140
Mr. Chair, this is Roxbury, and I just had one question for the applicant.

172
00:13:22,140 --> 00:13:30,900
And that is Mr. Cobbler, there was a recommended condition of approval to have an as-built survey prepared once after the poll is installed.

173
00:13:31,260 --> 00:13:33,620
Just want to make sure you're in agreement in accepting that condition.

174
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:33,920
Yes.

175
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:35,580
If the item were to be approved.

176
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:36,140
Yes, we are.

177
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:36,640
Thank you.

178
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,840
Any other questions for the applicant?

179
00:13:41,020 --> 00:13:41,780
Okay, thank you.

180
00:13:41,980 --> 00:13:42,860
Thank you.

181
00:13:42,860 --> 00:13:46,240
Now, if there is someone in the audience who would like to speak.

182
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:49,580
Okay, thank you.

183
00:13:51,020 --> 00:13:56,380
The board may now ask questions of staff, applicant or witnesses in regards to the case.

184
00:13:56,560 --> 00:13:59,960
Inquiry should be limited to the application salt.

185
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:06,560
Not other zoning matters that would be discussed or determined by another board or review process.

186
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:10,700
So I'm opening the floor for board members to ask questions.

187
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:16,640
Any questions?

188
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:24,160
With no questions, I'll entertain a motion to close the public hearing for SUP 0126.

189
00:14:24,380 --> 00:14:24,840
So moved.

190
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:25,400
Second.

191
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,200
All in favor say aye.

192
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:32,800
I will now ask the board to deliberate whether they believe that the application is

193
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,840
approvable based on the evidence provided.

194
00:14:43,300 --> 00:14:44,860
They comments or questions?

195
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,380
Yes, we're talking about this.

196
00:14:49,630 --> 00:14:58,230
Do you feel like this is, will there be any fallout or ripple effect by us approving this flag for them?

197
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:20,420
Describe what you mean by fallout. I mean, I don't even necessarily know. I mean, anybody else coming to us. So at the end of the day, Travis, I'm going to hold you. We have to rule on the seven findings of fact, only not. What if that might be mad at us, yeah? Right. Does it? No, not each of the. Okay.

198
00:15:23,700 --> 00:15:31,340
I'll now nominate individual members to read each finding of fact and make a determination as to whether the finding has been met and why?

199
00:15:31,340 --> 00:15:39,780
Please note that all findings must be justified with competent material and substantial evidence provided as part of this hearing.

200
00:15:40,340 --> 00:15:51,560
This is also the time to deliberate and decide whether any conditions staff recommended or otherwise, which we have discussed, should be reasonably placed upon the special use permitted approved.

201
00:15:52,620 --> 00:15:55,980
Conditions must be associated with the requested hand.

202
00:15:56,860 --> 00:15:57,500
Okay,

203
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:06,120
finding number one will be read west away.

204
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,040
Finding number one, the subject property upon which the flag court has proposed is located

205
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,560
in a non-residential district.

206
00:16:14,180 --> 00:16:20,060
I will say yes because it is in a non-residential district, okay.

207
00:16:21,860 --> 00:16:24,000
Finding number two, A book calendar.

208
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:31,840
The flagpole is located a minimum of 500 feet from the nearest residential district.

209
00:16:32,420 --> 00:16:44,120
Yes. This decision was made based on presentation by our staff and the drawing.

210
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,120
Yes, the drawing. Yes, that's part of presentation.

211
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,720
Okay. Number three, Keith Eichler.

212
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:57,520
The flagpole is located in a defined rear or side yard placement of the flagpole exceeding

213
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:02,600
a height and size 10 in this ordinance is permitted in primary or secondary grant yard.

214
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:08,800
It is located in the middle of the the answer is yes, it is located in the middle of it looks

215
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,080
like the parking line or the gerry of the cars, okay.

216
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,680
Okay, finding number four is myself.

217
00:17:17,180 --> 00:17:21,840
Bill Beck told the flag post, she'll be located on property so that the overall length

218
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:27,400
of the flag when entirely unfurled does not accroach upon the joining property lines

219
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,300
nor over a public right away.

220
00:17:30,940 --> 00:17:36,680
And the answer is yes, and it was described with a drawing that showed that beforehand.

221
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,960
Okay. Number five, Todd Little.

222
00:17:43,060 --> 00:17:49,000
The flag poll collapse zone remains clear of any on-site structure. And it is entirely

223
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:54,320
within the boundaries of the subject for property for this, for the purpose of this section.

224
00:17:54,500 --> 00:18:00,260
Collapse zone is defined as a buffer zone measuring from the base of the flag poll with the

225
00:18:00,260 --> 00:18:07,540
right, right, yes, equalling the total height of the tall hole plus 10% yes, and they

226
00:18:07,540 --> 00:18:14,280
should have sat in the, in the drawing. Okay. Finding number six, Mamie Lee.

227
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:19,140
A letter from the North Carolina Department of Transportation is provided with the special

228
00:18:19,140 --> 00:18:25,580
use permit application, which confirms based on a site study that no traffic concerns will arise

229
00:18:25,580 --> 00:18:30,620
Yes, with manner of placement of the display of such flag at the particular location.

230
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:35,800
Yes, decision to make this finding is based on the following facts that there was an email

231
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,380
from the Department of Transportation.

232
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:38,820
Thank you.

233
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:45,480
And number seven, Travis Julian, the overall placement of the flag on the subject property

234
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:51,460
does not create additional concerns regarding public health, safety, and welfare.

235
00:18:51,460 --> 00:19:01,520
there. And the answer to that would be yes. It does not create and for all the documents

236
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:02,420
that was submitted.

237
00:19:05,120 --> 00:19:09,380
Okay. We will now take a brief 10 minute recess in order for staff

238
00:19:09,380 --> 00:19:15,600
to complete the official findings of fact document. And staff will compile the findings of document

239
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,880
based on the results of the hearing and point and distribute it for the board prior to the

240
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,780
final vote. So we will take 10 minutes starting now.

241
00:24:37,780 --> 00:24:39,460
Okay, there we go.

242
00:24:44,390 --> 00:24:49,330
Yeah, so the board has proposed the following parties of back the subject property

243
00:24:49,330 --> 00:24:52,910
upon which the flag pole is proposed is located in a non-residential district.

244
00:24:53,650 --> 00:24:57,650
The flag pole is located at minimum of 500 feet from the nearest resident district.

245
00:24:58,090 --> 00:25:03,230
The flag pole is located in a defined rear yard or side yard placement of a flag pole exceeding

246
00:25:03,230 --> 00:25:05,010
and height and size standards of this ordinance

247
00:25:05,010 --> 00:25:07,430
is probably the primary or secondary front yard.

248
00:25:08,310 --> 00:25:10,190
The black hole shall be located on one of the properties

249
00:25:10,190 --> 00:25:12,570
to the overall length of the flag when entirely

250
00:25:12,570 --> 00:25:14,210
and for all does not encroach beyond

251
00:25:14,210 --> 00:25:15,690
the adjoining property lines,

252
00:25:15,910 --> 00:25:17,230
nor a group of public right-of-way.

253
00:25:17,850 --> 00:25:19,930
The black hole collapse zone remains clear

254
00:25:19,930 --> 00:25:21,170
beneath on-site structures

255
00:25:21,170 --> 00:25:23,030
and sits entirely within the boundaries

256
00:25:23,030 --> 00:25:24,070
of the subject property.

257
00:25:25,210 --> 00:25:27,490
A letter from the North Carolina Department of Transportation

258
00:25:27,490 --> 00:25:30,050
is provided with the special use permit application,

259
00:25:30,290 --> 00:25:32,010
which can be further spaced on a site study

260
00:25:32,010 --> 00:25:37,070
that no traffic concerns will arise with the manner placed with the slate of such flag at

261
00:25:37,070 --> 00:25:42,850
the particular location and the overall placement of the flag hold subject property does not create any

262
00:25:42,850 --> 00:25:47,930
additional concern regarding public health safety and welfare. With the following addition,

263
00:25:48,190 --> 00:25:52,090
the applicant must provide the town with an as-built survey to review verifying the height of the

264
00:25:52,090 --> 00:25:53,790
flag hold from grade upon its search.

265
00:25:56,830 --> 00:26:02,470
Okay, so now we'll have a vote and all in favor of approving this

266
00:26:03,790 --> 00:26:08,430
I need somebody to make the emotion to improve the slate that's presented.

267
00:26:08,670 --> 00:26:08,770
Okay.

268
00:26:09,250 --> 00:26:14,430
Would someone make a move to approve the slate of seven plus the condition?

269
00:26:15,550 --> 00:26:15,810
Okay.

270
00:26:16,130 --> 00:26:16,330
Second.

271
00:26:16,810 --> 00:26:21,270
And can you just, just for the motion, they're, they're, they're confirming that it includes

272
00:26:21,270 --> 00:26:21,970
that condition.

273
00:26:23,210 --> 00:26:23,770
Perfect.

274
00:26:24,110 --> 00:26:24,450
Thank you.

275
00:26:24,630 --> 00:26:24,770
Sorry.

276
00:26:25,090 --> 00:26:25,230
Okay.

277
00:26:25,670 --> 00:26:26,250
All in favor?

278
00:26:26,930 --> 00:26:27,310
Aye.

279
00:26:27,490 --> 00:26:27,590
Aye.

280
00:26:28,150 --> 00:26:28,490
Opposed?

281
00:26:30,870 --> 00:26:31,430
Okay,

282
00:26:39,120 --> 00:26:43,700
and so we've now approved the motion, so your motion is approved, Mr. Cobal.

283
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:49,760
It is formally up because then you will be getting this letter signed by us.

284
00:26:52,130 --> 00:27:01,250
Okay, we'll now have a motion to get back out of the Board of Adjustment.

285
00:27:01,250 --> 00:27:04,950
No move. Seconded.

286
00:27:04,970 --> 00:27:05,510
All in favor?

287
00:27:05,990 --> 00:27:06,190
Aye.

288
00:27:06,730 --> 00:27:07,130
Opposed?

289
00:27:08,010 --> 00:27:10,330
An emotion to go back into the planning board.

290
00:27:10,650 --> 00:27:11,030
So moved.

291
00:27:11,550 --> 00:27:11,690
Second.

292
00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:12,750
All in favor?

293
00:27:13,130 --> 00:27:13,350
Aye.

294
00:27:14,830 --> 00:27:16,310
Is there any old business?

295
00:27:17,430 --> 00:27:18,530
Mr. Rocks.

296
00:27:18,770 --> 00:27:19,770
No certain new business.

297
00:27:20,210 --> 00:27:21,430
Is there any new business?

298
00:27:22,250 --> 00:27:25,410
It's a couple of items here just to make you aware of.

299
00:27:25,410 --> 00:27:29,530
I think David kind of gave it introduction of it earlier during the workshop.

300
00:27:29,530 --> 00:27:33,790
And that is staff changes, so we've, first of all,

301
00:27:33,890 --> 00:27:36,050
Rochelle Ward is no longer with us.

302
00:27:36,310 --> 00:27:40,610
And so she took another job with a former employer in Charlotte.

303
00:27:41,030 --> 00:27:57,970
And so if we just ask for your patients and grace as we work through some of the details of her role in terms of getting the meetings put together and in the various documentation, we are certainly doing the best we can, but we just wanted to give you that update.

304
00:27:57,970 --> 00:28:05,670
And also Ms. Twintron is no longer with us, so she took a job with another local government

305
00:28:05,670 --> 00:28:11,330
in South Carolina, and so we certainly wish her well. We enjoyed working with her for

306
00:28:11,330 --> 00:28:16,010
about a year or so, but if she decided it was time to do something a little different.

307
00:28:16,290 --> 00:28:23,370
So we, again, wish her well with that. Also, just in terms of the October meeting, playing

308
00:28:23,370 --> 00:28:50,390
We have two potential items, and I want to use the word potential because some of it's based on these agenda items getting certain documentation in order to be eligible to be placed on the agenda, but we're thinking potentially the Washington plots subdivision conditional rezoning requests could be a candidate for October playing board and possibly Bethel Presbyterian church expansion could be a candidate for being on the October agenda for conditional rezoning.

309
00:28:50,390 --> 00:28:54,770
So I just wanted to provide this updates for you and that's all I have.

310
00:28:55,350 --> 00:28:59,270
The date for the meeting in October is the 12th.

311
00:29:00,230 --> 00:29:02,390
So hopefully all of you can attend.

312
00:29:03,570 --> 00:29:04,410
Love this day.

313
00:29:05,370 --> 00:29:08,550
If there's nothing else, I'll entertain a motion to adjourn.

314
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:09,330
So moved.

315
00:29:09,910 --> 00:29:10,290
Second.

316
00:29:10,910 --> 00:29:11,410
All in favor?

317
00:29:11,910 --> 00:29:12,370
Aye.

318
00:29:13,290 --> 00:29:13,990
We are.

319
00:29:13,990 --> 00:29:14,630
Thank you very much.
