NC Hwy 87 Mixed Use Conditional Zoning District Amendment
Sanford
Description
Amended the existing 2023 mixed use conditional zoning to add 1.3 commercial acres, detail the commercial site plan with architectural elevations, and allow bigger signage for a planned gas station/convenience store. Planning Board recommended approval unanimously.
Impact summary
Paves the way for a convenience store with gas on Highway 87 near Carolina Trace — neighbors reportedly glad they won't have to cross the highway for fuel — with signage larger than standard UDO limits.
