building, single family homes and mobile homes. Mr. Riddick stated Mr.
Smith's business .has grown over the years and he has found himself not to
be in compliance with the zoning of the property. Mr. Riddick stated the
Building. Official addressed the matter with Mr. Smith who has corrected
the violations and is now in compliance with the all of the zoning
regulations except far the request that he be permitted to store his
contractor's equipment on his property. Mr. Riddick stated in addition to
the contractor's equipment, mulch and gravel would be stored on the site.
Roger Glover, adjacent property owner of Mr. Smith, voiced a concern
with burning and stormwater runoff .from a bank that would run into
Brewer's Creek.
Mr. Caskey stated ;any land disturbing activity that occurs on Mr.
Smith's property will have to meet the County's erosion and sediment
control standards. He noted that the, entire area is within the Chesapeake
Bay Area Watershed and the Department of Community Development will
verify whether or not there is any significant impacts in interfacing with
Resource Protection Areas under the Chesapeake Bay regulations.. .
Mr. Riddick stated Mr. Smith does not plan on any burning activities,
only the storage of his equipment when he is not on a job and some gravel
and mulch..
County Administrator Standish stated this is an unusual location
because it is a focal point on-the County's Comprehensive Plan and asked
Mr. Caskey if there was some alternative action the Board could take that
would temporarily allow this type of activity without permanently changing
the zoning in this area.
Mr. Caskey stated the Board is not in a position to attach any
conditions to the conditional rezoning; however, the County does provide
far a Special Use Permit- in its Zoning Ordinance which is intended for uses
that are not provided for under a particular zoning classification. Mr.
Caskey stated in the past the County Attorney has advised that it may be
appropriate for a Special Use Permit to be applied in lieu of a rezoning
which enables a governing body to attach .conditions to the proposed
activity.
Chairman Spady asked Mr. Riddick if this possibility has been
explored by Mr. Smith.
Mr. Riddick replied. no because Mr. Smith was told the proper way
to deal with this is to rezone the .property. Mr. Riddick stated he felt Mr,

Smith may run into a problem with a Special Use Permit but would be
willing ko amend his application to make it appjicable to his personal
ownership of that property.
Mr. Casket' stated this is a conditional rezoning and .the Board may
table the application to revisit the proffers, approve it as stated in the
application, or deny the application
Chairman Spady closed the public hearing and moved the Board table
the matter until the. November 17th meeting to allow the County Attorney
time to confer with Mr: Riddick and his client regarding the possibility of
not permanently rezoning the land and to provide Mr. Smith ::the
opportunity to modify his proffers. The motion was .adopted .unanimously
(5-0).

District. The purpose of the application is for Industrial. and.
.Business uses as proffered.
f.
Chairman Spady called for those in favor or in opposition to the

Jeff Gardy, Attorney representing Edward T. Rogers, stated industrial
sites. and users give areas what is needed for growth which is tax revenue
and jobs for the citizens. Mr. Gardy further stated the proposed 180 acres
of-industrial site should initially provide 75 jobs, with a potential. of 1,300.

Mr. Lardy stated the proposed. site is east of Franklin and on the south side
of Route 58, which offers three lanes for traffic and an active railroad site.
Mr. Lardy stated the majority of the land located west and south contains
M-2 zoned land which is also located in the growth corridor. Mr. Lardy
stated the area is not suitable for apartments or single-family housing or
light commercial uses, however, it would lend itself to an industrial site
because it is fairly isalated. Mr. Lardy stated the railroad is willing to
provide a $100,000 grant to install a spur based on their expectations that
this will; .develop into an active and viable industrial park. Mr. Lardy
stated over 400 citizens have signed a petition 'in favor of bringing in
industry to this community.
Bill Barrett of Carrsville stated he was in favor of the project because
of the tax. revenue. Mr. Barrett pointed. out that the Board has discussed
over the last several. years the heurealsestate t xeslgtot he p swl ht school
relieve some of the burden on
financing, as well as the operation of the County government. Mr. Barrett
continued for the benefit of the County as a whole and the revenue which
would be received from the project, he would urge the Board to approve
the application.
Gene Capps, Hunt Club Road, stated the idea of built-in-America,
.manufactured in the County and shipped to other countries appeals to him
and 'if the Board does not approve ,the application of Atlantic Building
Components, he would still like to have the industrial park in the County.
Mr. Capps stated growth is necessary to help lower the tax base and ensure
continued quality educatian for the County's children. Mr. Capps stated the
proposed site is suitable for industrial growth and previously approved for
such growth: Mr. Capps stated the proposed park comes at a minimum
cost to the `.County and is desired by over 400 residents and property
owners in the near area; as witnessed by a petition signed by 418
individuals. Mr. Capps stated these. same people want jobs for their
children and grandchildren and approving this application sets the pace for
continued .growth in the County. Mr. Capps concluded his comments with
Supervisor .Bradshaw°s quote from an earlier meeting "in order for the
County to survive and grow it must have businesses and if the Board
denies the rezoning it is sending the message that the County does not
want these businesses which fund additional taxes to fund the schools that
the County needs to build and establish the education for the County's
children for future generations" when he voted in favor of a temporary spot
zoning on Hunt -Club Road. Mr. Capps stated this industrial park would
provide. approximately 1,300 jabs at completion as opposed to six or seven
on Hunt Club Road.. Mr. Capps stated he hopes the members of the Board
will be able to see the: "big picture" and unanimously choose what is best
fore the County and.-the greater majority of its citizens. Mr. Capps stated -the
greatest .concern is jobs for the .citizens of the County and he believes
industrial growth in the County is mandatory.
Douglas Blythe of Hunt Club Road urged the Board. to approve the
.application and stated the Courtty needs jobs and industry and the citizens
have shown that they want the industrial park.

Hubie Dunnagan of Carrsville stated he is in favor of the proposed
industrial park which will bring the County lower taxes and provide
citizens with jobs.
Brian Patterson of Carrsville spoke in favor of the proposed industrial
park.
Taylor Williams, attorney, appeared representing persons. in
opposition to the proposed rezoning. Attorney Williams stated this area. is
an agrarian community and the citizens who live there own large family
farms and want to continue to farm the land. Attorney Williams stated
farmland is an asset to the County because it is the County's largest source
of revenue and must be. protected from the encroachment of growth.
Attorney Williams stated the County must contain an orderly mix of both
in order to grow but these citizens do not feel that the proposed rezoning
in this area will be the orderly growth. that is needed. Attorney Williams
stated the citizens are concerned with increased traffic and feel it will `
increase accidents and create a problem in the community that has. just , .
recently been solved by the location of the Route 58 Bypass to the south of
this area. Attorney Williams stated the citizens are also concerned a>:out
noise,. water and air pollution, and- would like to see the existing M-2
zoning .located down the road used up before any additional M-2 zoning
is brought into the community. Attorney Williams stated the existing M-2
zoning is exactly the same as the property that isbeing proposed for the
rezoning. and is adjacent to the railroad track with an existing spur and
adequate room for an additional spur. Attorney Williams stated this
property would have better access to arterial roads and there is a proposal
for an extension of Route 258 to the Route 58 Bypass which would be better
for the existing M-2 zoning. Attorney Williams stated utilities are already
in place or can be easily installed if necessary because'existing utilities are
located close by. Attorney Williams stated .the citizens of this area are
concerned because they feel that the failure to use up existing M-2 land will ~
set a bad precedent. Attorney Williams stated landowners wha have been '
paying taxes on vacant land currently designated M-2 by the County. should
be upset by the County proposing that a competitor come into the area
when there is not a need to have a .competitor there. Attorney Williams
stated when the matter was heard by the Planning Commission the
Planning Commission tabled action on this rezoning to .ask for additional
information from the applicants. Attorney Williams stated thirteen specific `{
areas were outlined and addressed at the .next Planning Commission '
meeting and several concerns were raised, one of which regarded ABCCO's
financial backing. Attorney Williams stated the Planning Commission tried
to verify. this information but. was unsuccessful and when an attempt was
made to verify information from Corridor Financial Services,. the address for
same could .not be located. Attorney Williams stated letters of intent were .
solicited from businesses that might ask ABCCO to build items for them,
specifically Red Bird Construction Company in Texas, and Red Bird
Construction Company could not be located in Texas. Attorney Williams {
submitted to .the Board that some inquiry should be made regarding
whether there will be sufficient business to support at least the ABCCO ~
portion of the. proposed zoning. Attorney Williams requested the Board to ~.
reject the. application or at least demand. verification of the information

provided to the Board.
Sid Barrett, .landowner across Route 58 from the proposed site, stated
he was opposed to the rezoning because the proposed site is located on
Route 58 which. contains a dangerous curve with elevations that reduce
visibility.. Mr. Barrett stated the entrance to the property would be across
a rail track .and would require aright-turn deceleration lane on Route 58.
Mr. Barrett stated the site would also require aleft-turn stacking lane for
tra#fic going west on Route 58. Mr. Barrett stated a traffic study indicates
that the industrial park would generate 9,223 total vehicle trips per day and
it is understood that VDQT will make changes to the highway as necessary,
however, VDOT must first review the concept and design before it is even
placed on the Plan. Mr. Barrett stated Mr. Cook's and Mr. Miller's
experience is in manufacturing and construction, however, it appears that
their main interest is in the sawmill and the component plants. Mr. Barrett
stated Mr. Miller. has stated that they have never developed an industrial
park and that they do not plan to construct any other buildings in the
industrial park but intend to sell the land to others to develop. Mr. Barrett
stated a market study has not been developed to determine the need for the
- type of businesses proposed in the industrial park and M-2 zoning allows
for the worst. possible mix of undesirable neighbors far this area. Mr.
~~ Barrett stated concerning the .fiscal impact s#udy, the average wage of
X30,000 per year per employee is used throughout the study, yet he has
heard Mr. Miller state .that entry level jobs would be slightly. above
minimum wage. Mr. Barrett stated hE would suggest that any tax revenue
decisions made by the Board should be made on the basis of .real estate tax
and tool & machinery taxes which can be verified. Mr. Barrett stated- the
Board must be realistic about the need for industrial land when there is
already land that is not being utilized. Mr. Barrett stated historically
commercial development follows residential growth but there is no
residential development in this area that would support commercial
development at_ this -time. Mr. Barrett stated many of the elements needed
to develop a successful industrial. park. that would attract users for large
parcels of land are not in -place and it would take years of concerted. effort
before they are in place and ready for these large users. Mr. Barrett stated
there is a natural boundary already in place, Beaver. Dam Swamp, and if the
- Board rezones any of this property for industrial use the County will create
a problem for. all adjacent property owners because their quality of life
would be compromised and threatened. Mr. Barrett stated a good
development would probably increase the value of the landowner's
property, however, this_is not the right development, and -the citizens are
very concerned that this project will never produce a quality development
they would be proud to have as a neighbor.
Chairman Spady asked Mr. Barrett what type of industry would he
favor.
Mr, Barrett stated light industrial/commercial would. be the best,
however he would prefer that it be left as agricultural.
Ed Harris, representing the interest of James F. Bracey who is an
adjoining:- landowner to the proposed site, stated Mr. Bracey wishes to
18

snoK 16 vact 89
preserve its agricultural and rural character. Mr. Harris further stated
rezoning the proposed site would be in direct conflict with the guidelines
established by the County's Comprehensive Plan which states the need. to
preserve farmland and recognizes the need to conserve andprotect natural
.resources and discourage growth in environmentally. sensitive areas. Mr.
Hams continued County planners .need to provide land areas with balanced
1
future commercial and industrial development in .locations which are
compatible with existing and planned residential development. Mr. Harris
stated there are many single-family dwellings on the property surrounding
the proposed site. Mr. Harris stated the residents are .concerned with
increased vehicular traffic -that follows the successful development of an
.industrial park Mr. Harris stated no comprehensive traffic impact analysis
has been completed which is a requirement of the 'Comprehensive Plan
before rezoning can occur. Mr. Harris stated the most important goal of .the
Comprehensive Plan pertaining to industrial and commercial development
is the need for environmental protection. Mr, Harris voiced his concerns
with the clearing of trees, loss of plant and wildlife habitat, loss of valuable
wetlands, groundwater contamination, degradation of the surface water
quality of streams and rivers, air pollution, and. an increase in solid waste.
Carlton Butler stated that Mr. Capps, Mr. Blythe and Mr. Dunning
.some months ago were present against a zoning request on Hunt Club
Road,. however, they are now in favor of an industrial park.
.Margaret Whitley of Franklin requested the Board deny the
application stating she. currently owns property located at the intersection
of Route 58 and 258 across from the Franklin Municipal. Airport v~hich is
zoned for industrial usage and suitable for an industrial parka
Sandra Hawkins of Franklin asked why the Department of Economic
Development or the Planning Commission did not verify the items that
Attorney Williams found to be incorrect or non-existence in the package
ABCCC? presented to the. County. Ms. Hawkins stated the citizens of -the
County look to these people for comfort of Life and income and the citizens
should not be at risk for overlooked items. on such a major project.
Attorney Gardy in rebuttal stated the proposed. project is located in s
the .growth corridor which is where the County has designated that it wants
to grow. Attorney Gardy stated State .boards and local .ordinances will
address the issues of noise pollution and traffic. Attorney Gardy stated any
building constructed at the proposed site will be controlled by bid and
performance bonds which must be in place before construction. Attorney
Gardy stated some of the citizens are suspicious of the applicants, however
they welcome them to come down the road and buy their own sites.
Attorne Gard stated the site some of the citizens wanted ABCCO to buy ~
was ten to fifkeen times higher in price and too small. Attorney Gardy
stated the proposed site wilt be buffered by planks and trees and buffered
on the north by the highway and the railroad, and buffered on the west and
south by M-2 zoning and Union Camp. Attorney Gardy stated regarding
the Bracey farm on the east, there will be a buffer of trees. Attorney Gardy
stated by approving this application, the County will -make more readily
available additional .land for a plant to .establish a site that will employ
f
19
BnoK 1V PAct a~
individuals, pay wages and provide tax revenue. Attorney Gardy stated the
applicants .must- also submit- a site plan to the County and obtain. all
necessary approvals.
Chairman Spady closed the public hearing .and asked for those in
favor of the application to raise their hands.
Chairman Spady asked. those opposed to the application to raise their
hands..
Chairman Spady asked for comments from the Board...
Supervisor Cofer stated the real issue before the Board tonight is
rezoning and he does not believe that in the past any applicants have been
requested to submit financial statements before rezoning land. Supervisor
Cofer stated 85% of the County is classified as the Rural Agricultural
Conservation District and the County's goal is to preserve rural agricultural
land. Supervisor Cofer stated he has seen many petitions but this is-the
first time he has seen 400 names in favor of a project.
Supervisor Hager stated since he has been a member of the Board he
has reviewed the income revenues and what counties can .gain to provide
and pay for their expenses. Supervisor Hager stated he is convinced that
the County must look for alternative forms of taxation and receipts of
revenues. Supervisor Hager stated he feels that coupled with the industrial
park in the Windsor area that the Board will need to develop mare taxation
income.
Supervisor Bradby stated his concern is for the entire County,
however, the School Board is requesting additional funding for educational
facilities which are needed and it is the Board's responsibility to provide for
the best possible education for the County's children.
Supervisor Bradshaw stated the County is being asked for funding to
build additional schools and the Board must generate the necessary
revenues to pay for these and other services. Supervisor Bradshaw stated
he is in favor of economic development and education and the Carrsville
area is in need of a new school and it is the Board's responsibility to find
additional revenue sources. Supervisor Bradshaw stated the application
under consideration tonight may not be the ideal application, however,
growth and change cannot be avoided. Supervisor Bradshaw asked
Attorney Edwards if the Board can address the financial backings and the
integrity of the applicant.
Attorney Edwards stated the only parameters to the Board's decision
making on a rezoning is whether or not the Board's actions would be what
the courts consider to be arbitrary and capricious.. Attorney Edwards stated
if the Board proceeds into a completely new field of inquiry that has never
happened with any other rezoning .then there is the possibility that could
be considered to be an arbitrary and capricious action, however, it is in this
Board's discretion at any time to table the matter or consider a matter
further. for an individual Board member to seek any additional information

needed. Attorney Edwards cautioned the Board not to create without any
type of notice to any applicant a new hurdle for an applicant to overcome.
Supervisor Cofer pointed out that .the applicant has proffered uses
such as crushed stone, petroleum storage, asphalt mixing, paper and pulp
'r orts coal yard and adult
i
manufacturing, Junk storage, meat. processors, ai p ,
entertainment be excluded from M-1.
Chairman Spady stated the applicant's financial backing is not an .
issue and if he purchases the property and develops it into an industrial
park this in itself will benefit the County because the County is currently
spending a considerable amount of money on Route 460 to develop its own
industrial. park.
Supervisor Bradshaw .asked what would happen if the applicant is
unable to obtain his permits or financing. .
Mr. Caskey stated the property will remained zoned conditional M-2.
Mr. Caskey. further stated the applicant will have to obtain all permits in
order to proceed with development of the project, and if not, the lend
would remain zoned conditional M-2 until development of the property by
an individual who would .also be bound by the same conditions.
