An audience member asked what would happen to prevent Faith Mountain from changing their plans after the zoning was approved. McCarthy said that the corporation was applying for specific use zoning, not regular rezoning, and they would have to come back to the commission for any changes.
Amos ‘Clark* Clark said that he owns property at the top of the mountain, and he was concerned about continued right-of-way to the eastern access road.
Richard Caldwell said that he shares a driveway with Faith Mountain, and he was afraid there would be problems pulling in and out of the driveway. He felt that Faith Mountain should not have been permitted to move into the existing building in 1989.
“It doesn’t make sense to rezone a beautiful piece of agricultural property because of a mistake made several years ago," he said. An audience member said that under Title 11 of the Federal Housing Administration a neighboring property to a commercial property cannot get a mortgage loan, and the real estate agent must disclose that to any prosepctive buyer.
Mike Massie, the representative of the Board of Supervisors on the Planning Commission, said that although disclosure was necessary, he didn’t believe that could stop someone from getting a mortgage. “No matter where you put it ‘commercial property’, it will abut someone,” he said.
Massie pointed out that a goal of the county Comprehensive Plan in 1989 was to move commercial property off main highw ays.
Others in attendance spoke in favor of the rezoning, including several Faith Mountain employees.
