Public Hearing to consider a Text Amendment to the Mooresville Zoning Ordinance for the Alcove Road Overlay. Mayor Atkins opened the Public Hearing at 6:50 p.m. Tim Brown presented the request. TA-2015-02 Chapter 4, Alcove Road Corridor Overlay District The proposed text amendment will serve as policy to guide the regulation and management of emerging development along the Alcove Road corridor. John Ong said he was an advocate of the small area plan. His purpose tonight is to indicate that he thinks the overlay district itself can be better and more closely in line with the goals of the small area plan. The small area plan is essentially nothing more than the goals and aspirations for the area. The individual parcels of land within that area have individual zoning classifications that give them certain rights and limitations. Nothing about the overlay district changes the individual zoning classifications. The overlay district provides teeth and formal structure to what can be done within the small area plan district. It gives consistency and guidance to developers and the public as what to expect. The overly district only has a restriction within 50 feet of a residential structure. It should do more than that. Why not simply state what limitations there are. 6
This is a very valuable area. It needs to be developed well. This is your chance to do it correctly. It should more thoroughly address height and uses. There is nothing that addresses the 25 foot of open space requirement that s called for in the small area plan. Action: A motion by Mr. Coble, seconded by Mr. Compton, to continue this Public Hearing to the March 2, 2015 Board meeting was unanimously approved. 12.

MINUTES FOR THE CLOSED SESSION HAVE BEEN RECORDED AND SEALED UNTIL PUBLIC INSPECTION WILL NO LONGER FRUSTRATE THE PURPOSE OF THE CLOSED SESSION. 13. Following the closed session, the Board returned to open session. 14. Final Assessment Resolution Regarding the Special Assessments Requested Pursuant to the Petition of Langtree Development Company LLC. At its December 1, 2014, meeting the Town Board received a report from the SAID Financing Committee concerning the request of Langtree Development Company, LLC. After hearing this report, the Board adopted a Preliminary Resolution concerning such special assessments and ordered that a public hearing for matters covered under the Preliminary Resolution be set for January 5, 2015. Such public hearing was continued until January 20 at which time such hearing was held where the applicant and members of the public were asked to offer information and comments on the application. This is before the Board for a vote on the final assessment resolution. This resolution is part of the statutorily mandated process in order to secure financing related to this application. This resolution is not the final step in the process; if adopted, this matter will come back before the Board for confirmation of the final assessment roll (i.e., confirmation of the properties subject to being assessed) and if approved by the North Carolina Local Government Commission, the Board must then consider whether to adopt a revenue bond order approving the sale of bonds necessary for the financing requested by the applicant. Action: A motion by Mr. Herring, seconded by Ms. Compton, to adopt the Final Assessment Resolution regarding the special assessments requested pursuant to the petition of Langtree Development Company LLC was unanimously approved. 7
