BACKGROUND
Background
Per Guilford County Unified Development Ordinance Article 2 - Administration, Section 2.4.c.1.a.; Article 3 - Permits and Procedures, Section 3.5 Procedures for Specific Applications, and S.L.1985-485 HB651(attached), the Board of Commissioners has the authority to hold a public hearing to consider a less-than-75% favorable vote by the Guilford County Planning Board to rezone approx. 53.74 acres (Tax Parcel #107431) located at 1731 Rock Creek Dairy Road. The applicant requests that the subject property be rezoned from Agricultural (AG) to Conditional Zoning-Planned Unit Development-Residential (CZ-PD-R).
