The property contains 1 residential structure and 2 accessory structures which are located on the northeast side of the property. The eastern most property boundary is the approximate centerline of Little Poplar Creek. The 110 lot residential subdivision of Whitley Height is adjacent to and south of the property considered for rezoning. The 62 lot residential subdivision of Wedgewood is not adjacent to the property proposed for rezoning buti is in close proximity and located to northeast and just across Little Adjacent to and north of the property considered for rezoning is an existing LI (Light Industrial) zoning district which is approximately 45 acres in area.

Other Light Industrial parks in the area include an unnamed facility that is the home of OPW Containment and Airport Industrial Park located off Swift creek Road and adjacent to the airport. All of the these facilities are located within the Town of Smithfield Planning and Zoning Jurisdiction.  Poplar Creek.  Consistency with the Strategic Growth Plan  The proposed rezoning to the LI (Light Industrial) zoning district is not consistent with the Strategic Growth Plan which recommends the property be zoned for low density residential development. However the property is adjacent to an existing LI zoning district and the  proposed rezoning is a logical extension of this district. Consistency with the Unified Development Code  The rezoning will be consistent with the Town of Smithfield Unified Development Ordinance provided that all proposed future land uses and developments are constructed in accordance  with minimum development standards. Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses  The property considered for a rezoning is located on a major corridor entering the Town from the west and is in close proximity to other like zoning districts. Rezoning this property from residential to a Light industrial zoning district will not create any compatibility issues with the adjacent residential uses to the south provided that adequate buffers are installed as part of  any future land use plan or subdivision.  15    OTHER: FIRE PROTECTION: SCHOOL IMPACTS:  The Town of Wilsons Mills will provide fire protection.

The Council has the responsibility to determine if the zoning map amendment is warranted. The Town Council of the Town of Smithfield shall decide the matter of this rezoning application by motion and vote on each oft the following eight findings ofi fact. Any motion to find against the application must be supported by statement of specific reason or conciusions reached in support of the motion.  1. Finding One of Eight: Smithfield... Circle One A. Agree  ..The zoning petition is in compliance with all applicable plans and policies of the Town of  The rezoning request from the low density residential zoning district to al lighti industrial zoning district is not consistent with the recommendations of the Future Land Use Plan which calls for low density residential uses. However, expanding the existing light industrial zoning district to the subject property  will create opportunities fori future job growth in the area.  B.D Disagree  The Future land use plan has identified this property as being suitable for low density residential development and open space. The additional commercial activity and the traffic generated by such intensive uses offered by the light industrial zoning district will allow for harmful and adverse impacts on  the area, particularly to the adjacent residential properties to the south.  1of5 RZ-15-05  17    2. Finding Two of Eight  ..The rezoning petition is compatible with established neighborhood patterns of the surrounding  ared.... Circle One A. Agree  The rezoning petition is compatible with established neighborhood patterns of the surrounding area. This area contains some of the most productive industrial properties located within the Town of  Smithfield Planning and Zoning Jurisdiction.  B. Disagree  Although no known compatibility issues with adjacent land uses have occurred in the past, rezoning the property to the light industrial zoning district could create the potential for additional congestion along US Hwy 70 in the form of additional retail shopping centers, restaurants, gas stations and urban sprawl  ingeneral.  3. Finding Three of Eight arezoning... Circle One A. Agree  .The rezoning petition is compatible with the changing neighborhood conditions that might warrant  The rezoning request from the low density residential and highway entrance business zoning districts to ali light industrial zoning district is consistent with historical trends suggesting that some industrial and manufacturing facilities prefer to be located in close proximity to. Johnston County Airport.  B. Disagree  The rezoning petition is NOT compatible with the changing neighborhood conditions that might warrant ar rezoning because recently constructed residential subdivisions have been built along Swift Creek Road  and within the airport overlay zoning district.  4. Finding Four of Eight 2of5 RZ-15-05  18    ....The rezoning request is in the community interest....  A. Agree  The rezoning will allow for a wider range of commercial and light industrial uses and provide additional area for consideration of large scale manufacturing uses and developments. Any development that will  occur from the rezoning will increase the tax base as an additional benefit.  B. Disagree  The denial of the rezoning will bei in the best interest of Smithfield because it will maintain a reservoir of  low density residential properties for future development.  5. Finding Five of Eight  ..7 The request does not constitute "Spot Zoning"...  A. Agree  Iti is unlikely an argument could be made for "spot zoning" or "small scale" since the rezoning will be  expandingo ona analready existing lighti industrial zoning district.  B. Disagree  Since the rezoning does not meet the definition of spot zoning then there is no valid basis for denial.  6. Finding Six of Eight  ...Present. regulations deny or restrict the economic use of the property...  A. Agree  The property is currently zoned for residential and agricultural uses. Additional manufacturing and industrial uses such as those permitted in the light industrial zoning district cannot occur unless the  property is rezoned. B. Disagree  There are no considerations for residential development in the light industrial zoning district. Residential uses should be pursued in more depth prior to rezoning tol lightindustrial.  7. Finding Seven of Eight  3of5 RZ-15-05  19    .-the availability of public services allows consideration of this rezoning request...  A. Agree  Ina addition to public water and sewer being available to the site, the property is served with electricity by Duke Energy. CenturyLink and Time Warner also serve the area with phone and cable respectively.  B Disagree  Since allt the above utilitiesserve the area then there can be no justification to deny the petition.  8. Finding Eight of Eight  .Physical characteristics of the site prohibit development under present regulations...  A. Agree  There are no physical restraints to the area considered for rezoning such as wetlands, stream buffers, potential fiood hazard areas and storm water that would outright prohibit development of the property. There is no limiting geological and hydrological formation that would prohibit development (rock  outcrops, lakes, etc.). B. Disagree  Since there are no physical features such as rock out crops that would render the rezoned area undevelopable and given the fact that proper permits more than likely can be obtained then there is no  basis for denial based on physical characteristics.  4of5 RZ-15-05  20    9. Once all findings have been decided one of the twot following motions must be made.  Motion to Approve: Based upon satisfactory compliance with the above stated eight findings and fully contingent upon full incorporation of all statements entered into the record by the testimony of the applicant and applicant's representative Imove to approve the Rezoning Petition RZ-15-05. Motion to Deny: Based upon the failure to adequately address all of the above stated eight findings and for the reasons stated therein, Imove to deny the Rezoning Petition RZ-15-05.  10.

Gower  Publichearing held on October 1, 2015 (Excerpt from approved minutes)  After all persons giving testimony were duly sworn, Mr. Foy opened the public hearing.  RZ-15-05 Steven H Gower: Mr. Foy opened the public hearing.  Mr. Helmer stated the applicant is requesting to rezone approximately 47.78 acres of land from the R-20A Residential-Agrcultural) zoning district and the B-3 (Highway Entrance Business) zoning district to the LI (Light Industrial) zoning district. The property considered for rezoning is located on the east side of US 70 Highway Business West approximately 220 feet north of its intersection with Cloverdale Drive. The property is further identified as Johnston County Tax Mr. Helmer stated the property considered for a rezoning contains environmentally sensitive areas to include wetlands and the Little Poplar Creek floodplain. The property is also located within the watershed protected area of the Town of Smithfield. Any further development proposal will be encouraged to limit encroachment into these areas and to maintain a Mr. Helmer stated the property proposed for rezoning is currently being used for agricultural endeavors. The property contains 1 residential structure and 2 accessory structures which are located on the northeast side of the property. The eastern most property boundary is the approximate centerline of Little Poplar Creek. The 110 lot residential subdivision of Whitley Height is adjacent to and south of the property considered for rezoning. The 62 lot residential subdivision of Wedgewood is not adjacent to the property proposed for rezoning but is in close proximity and located to northeast and just across Little Poplar Creek. Adjacent to and north of the property considered for rezoning is an existing LI (Light Industrial) zoning district which is approximately 45 acres in area. Existing tenants include North American Van Lines located in a 70 thousand square foot facility and Technion Studio located in a 55 square foot facility. Other Light Industrial parks in the area include an unnamed facility that is the home of OPW Containment and Airport Industrial Park located off Swift Creek Road and adjacent to the airport. All of these facilities are located within the Town of Smithfield Planning and Zoning  ID# 17308004.  maximum built upon are of 24% orl less.  Jurisdiction.  32    Mr. Helmer stated the proposed rezoning to the LI (Light Industrial) zoning district is not consistent with the Strategic Growth Plan which recommends the property be zoned for low density residential development. However the property adjacent to an existing LI zoning district and the proposed rezoning is a logical extension of this district. The rezoning will be consistent with the Town of Smithfield Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) provided that all proposed future land uses and developments are constructed in accordance with minimum development standards. The property considered for a rezoning is located on a major corridor entering the Town from the west and is in close proximity to other like zoning districts. Rezoning this property from residential to a Light Industrial zoning district will not create any compatibility issues with the adjacent residential uses to the south provided that adequate buffers are installed as part of any future land use plan or subdivision. The Town of Smithfield Mr. Helmer stated the Planning Department recommends approval of the request to rezone approximately 47.78 acres of land from an R-20A Res.enta-Agrcutura) zoning district and the B-3 (Highway Entrance Business) zoning district to the LI( (Light Industrial) zoning district. The Planning Board is requested to review the petition to rezone approximately 47.78 acres of land from the R-20A esenta-Agrcutura) zoning district and the B-3 (Highway Entrance Business) zoning district to the LI (Light Industrial) zoning district a make a recommendation to  will provide water and sewer, Duke Energy Progress will provide electric.

Mr. Foy asked if there was any opposition.  Mr. Helmer stated he was not aware of any opposition.  Daniel Sanders asked how this project would affect the two churches near the property. Mr. Helmer stated the churches were not notified of the project as they are not immediately Mark Lane asked how this property would be compatible to established neighborhood patterns.  adjacent properties.  33    Mr. Helmer stated that rezoning the property would not create conflicts providing that any use creating noise, dust, odor, and glare would only be permitted by Town Council as conditional use. The property will also be buffered from the adjacent residential subdivision and will not be accessible from Cloverdale Drive. Mr. Helmer also stated that there are two existing Industrial parks nearby and the current proposal is an expansion of an existing light industrial zoning  district.  Teresa Daughtry asked ifthe applicant owned the large warehouse in that area.  Mr. Helmer stated the applicant does not.  Mark Lane asked if giving up residential land is a good decision.  Mr. Helmer stated the area is appropriate for this project and a residential development may not be the most appropriate use given the property is in such close proximity to the airport. Mr. Helmer stated that if there is any future interest in a residential project on the subject property, the property could be rezoned back to an appropriate residential zoning district.  Teresa Daughtry asked ifthere would be any cost to the Town.  Mr. Helmer stated this land is not within the corporate limits and I'm not aware of any cost to Mr. Foy stated he was aware it is not required for applicants to be present during the public hearings, however there are questions that need to be answered and would think someone Teresa Daughtry stated her concerns about the applicant not being present.

Teresa Daughtryasked if this would be something they could obtain in the future. Chris Johnson stated feeder lines for natural gas are pretty easy to tap into.  37    There were no further questions. Steve Upton closed the public hearing  Stephen Upton made a motion, seconded by Jack Matthews, to move to the Finding of Fact. Article 13 Section 13-17 of the Town of Smithfield Unified Development Ordinance requires all applications for a zoning map amendment to address the following eight findings.

The Smithfield Planning Board unanimously made the following finding:  1.

That the rezoning petition is compatible with the changing neighborhood conditions that might warrant a rezoning because a demand for manufacturing facilities is creating a need for additional 4. That the rezoning will allow for an additional industrial zoning district that can support manufacturing jobs while rehabilitating and underdeveloped and underutilized property located on a major commercial corridor.

Please note that this is an average and some rate classes will receive more than a 5.03% rate reduction and some will receive less than a 5.03% rate reductions.

The rates reductions take into account the known increases in costs and capital additions for the next several years. If the analysis is correct, and staff believes that it is, the energy and demand rates should be able to remain stable for the next few years.

Approval to amend the Town's Code of Ordinance allowing the Town to prohibit truck Chief of Police Michael Scott addressed the Council on a request to begin the process of allowing the Town to prohibit truck traffic on South Third Street. Chief Scott explained that during the October Council Meeting, the issue of semi-truck traffic using South 3rd Street as a cut through between Market Street and South Highway 301 was discussed. The DSDC met on the issue on October 20"h and supported the concept of prohibiting semi-truck traffic on South 3rd Street, with the exception of trucks making deliveries. The Police Department supports this recommendation and asks that signage  traffic on South Third Street  44    be created for' "no through trucks" on South Third Street from Market Street to Highway 301 and that  signs be erected prohibiting same.  Councilman Ashley made a motion seconded by Mayor Pro-Tem Moore, to adopt the amendment to the Town 's Code of Ordinance and authorize the necessary signage be placed to prohibit through semi-truck traffic on South 3" Street between Market Street  and Highway 301 South. Unanimously approved.  Town of Smithfield Code of Ordinance Amendment 485  Sec 10-135. - Truck Route.  Commercial vehicles shall be prohibited from traveling on all town owned roads where signage exist prohibiting no through trucks. A "no through trucks" prohibition is defined as allowing only commercial vehicles with legitimate commerce related business (this does not include gas, food, or lodging) to travel on the road to and from their destination to conduct this business. Any other commercial vehicle using any part of the route and not having legitimate commerce related business on the route is  considereda' "through" truck.  2. Approved the Police Department to hire a Reservel Part-Time Police Officer  Chief of Police Michael Scott addressed the Council on a request to hire a reserve/part-time officer who was previously employed as a full time officer with the Smithfield Police Department. This action would come at no cost to the Town, except for wages when the employee worked. This wage cost would be less than paying full-time officer overtime and additional benefits. See additional supplemental information for more detail. This arrangement would be identical to the one approved in November of 2014. Since that time, the previous hiring has proved to be a positive arrangement for  the officer and the Town.  Councilman Williams made a motion, seconded by Councilman Harris, to approve the request  as submitted. Unanimously approved.  3. Discussion regarding the demolition of the Old' Water Treatment Plant  Interim Public Utilities Director Pete Connet addressed the Council demolition of the Old Water Treatment Plant. Mr. Connet explained that at the October 6th Council meeting, staff was directed to move forward with obtaining bids for the demolition of the Old Water Plant on Front Street. Since we had several companies interested in bidding on the project, we thought that it was better to prepare a bid package that ensured that everyone was bidding on the same scope of work and was fair to all bidders. The package also includes copies of the environmental reports that were done back in 2000, and the remediation report of 2001 for the removal/disposal of some old barreis that contained some chemicals stored on the site.
