CHAIRMAN’S REPORT
Mr. Talbott reminded the members this will be his last year to serve on the Board of Zoning Appeals.
THE ZONING PRECEPTS WERE READ by Mr. Talbott TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING at
approximately 7:04 p.m.
Case S-20-002, Barbara Ann Warren – Mr. Talbott opened the public hearing at 7:04 p.m. Mrs.
Hayes, Deputy Director of Community Development, reported that Barbara Warren had petitioned for a
Special Use Permit on 1.03 acres, located on Ringgold Depot Road, in the Dan River Election District to
allow for placement of a single-wide mobile home to be used for her personal residence. She then stated
the Planning Commission recommended by a unanimous vote, with opposition, that the petitioner’s
request be granted. No one was present to represent the petition; however, the Board elected to allow the
application to speak for itself. There was no opposition to the petition. Mr. Talbott closed the public hearing
at 7:05 p.m. The Board discussed the petition as the Committee of the Whole. Upon motion of Mr. Easley,
seconded by Mr. Merricks, the following motion was adopted: Whereas, Barbara Ann Warren has
petitioned the Board of Zoning Appeals for a Special Use Permit to allow for placement of a single-wide
mobile home for her personal residence, and, Whereas, we find no substantial detriment to adjacent
property, that the character of the zoning district will not be changed thereby, and that such use will be in
harmony with the purpose and intent of the Ordinance, I move the Special Use Permit be granted.
Motion passed unanimously.
This concludes the Special Use Permit case.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 7:13 p.m.
