BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS SCRIPT
for Zoning Map Amendment Application (Z24-20)
Request by Cindee Wolf with Design Solutions, applicant, on behalf of ZCH Investments, LLC, property
owner, to rezone approximately 11.26 acres located at 4200 Castle Hayne Road from the R-20,
Residential District to the (CZD) CB, Community Business District for the use of Outdoor Recreation
Establishment.
1. This is a public hearing. We will hear a presentation from staff. Then the applicant and any
opponents will each be allowed 15 minutes for their presentation and an additional 5
minutes for rebuttal.
2. Conduct Hearing, as follows:
a. Staff presentation
b. Applicant’s presentation and supporter comments (up to 15 minutes)
c. Opponent’s presentation (up to 15 minutes)
d. Applicant’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes)
e. Opponent’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes)
f. Staff review of any additional conditions
3. Close the public hearing
4. Board discussion
5. Before we proceed with the vote, I would like to invite the applicant to the podium. Based
on the Board discussion and items presented during the public hearing, would you like
withdraw your petition or proceed with a vote?
6. Vote on the application. The motion should include a statement saying how the change is,
or is not, consistent with the land use plan and why approval or denial of the rezoning
request is reasonable and in the public interest.
Example Motion for Approval
I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to a (CZD) CB, Community Business district. I find
it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the
rezoning provides for the types of uses recommended in both the Community Mixed Use
and Employment Center place types. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is
reasonable and in the public interest because the application limits uses to those which are
more appropriate for the area and additional conditions reduce impact on adjacent
residential areas.
Proposed Conditions:
1. The only permitted use is for a miniature golf establishment and a golf driving range.
2. Hours of operation limited to:
a. 9 am – 8 pm Sunday - Thursday
b. 9 am – 10 pm Friday & Saturday
3. In addition to UDO Section 5.5 Exterior Lighting, which regulates max illumination levels
and full fixture cut-offs, the following will apply:
a. Lighting poles for security lighting in the parking area and mini-golf areas
would be limited to a 16’ height.
b. Lighting poles for flood lighting of the driving range would be limited to 35’
and turned off outside of the hours of operation.
c. Lighting fixtures shall be numbered such that adequate levels of lighting are
maintained, but that light spillage and glare are not directed at adjacent
property(ies), neighboring areas or motorists.
Approval is subject to the applicant signing an agreement acknowledging the applicant’s consent
to all listed conditions. If the applicant does not provide a signed agreement within seven (7)
business days from the date of approval, then the rezoning application considered denied.
Alternative Motion for DENIAL (if based on information presented at the public hearing or other
consideration beyond the scope of staff review, the board finds denial appropriate.)
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to a (CZD) CB, Community Business district. I find it
to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the
rezoning provides for the types of uses recommended in both the Community Mixed Use
and Employment Center place types. I also find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable
and in the public interest because the proposal is not consistent with the desired character
of the surrounding community and will adversely impact the adjacent residential areas.
Alternative Motion for Approval/Denial:
I move to [Approve/Deny] the proposed rezoning to a conditional (CZD) CB, Community
Business district. I find it to be [Consistent/Inconsistent] with the purposes and intent of the
Comprehensive Plan because [insert reasons]
