DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Randal Alvord, agent for the applicants, has filed an application to rezone two parcels from General Agriculture (A-1) to Light Industrial (M-1) on behalf of Gary W. Smallridge and Thomas Conrad, to change a ±30.21-acre site. The Parcel Identification Numbers for the two properties are 41520-001-04 & 41520-101-04 (No assigned addresses). The legal description is provided within the application. The subject properties are metes and bounds parcels located immediately west of the Three C’s Industrial Park, on the south side of CR 484, which is approximately 3.32 miles due east of I-75. The site is located outside of the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) and in the County-wide Secondary Springs Protection Zone (SS-SPOZ).
No letters of opposition or support have been received to date. Three letters of support have been received. No code cases have been found to be active at this location.
The applicants appeared at the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding this item on March 31, 2025, and requested a continuation of the application’s consideration to enable the applicant to further address and staff’s recommendation regarding the intensity of the proposed land use. The Planning and Zoning Commission voted to continue consideration of this application to the Planning and Zoning Commission’s public hearing on May 28, 2025, at 5:30 p.m. As such, the Board of County Commissioners' consideration of this item was rescheduled and advertised accordingly. This Board of County Commissioners hearing was conducted on June 16, 2025.
At the board meeting on June 16, 2025, this item was discussed and was continued so that this request can come back as A-1 to B-4 instead of A-1 to M-1. The County Attorney has stated that the B-4 zoning is less intense and is available for the Board of County Commissioners to approve. Growth services worked with the applicant and as long as all uses proposed are conducted being in a completely enclosed building then this zoning is appropriate.
