Case 08-14 .. this is across from Don Lees ... Unless this plan is for a Sheetz .. I don't think we need another store/gas station. Anyone heard if they have a specific fast food place in mind for this intersection?
the Don Lee Empire is about to grow some more...thats probably whats going on....he is going to upgrade!!
The land in the zoing cases at that intersection are owned by Son-Lan ... seems like they are planning to give Don Lee some competition.
In the Herald it also lists property purchases. The property Walmart purchasee in the Cleveland area tops the list. I guess they are still coming.
This is actually the other corner where the old house was tore down. The guy wore tore it down did it with hopes of turning it commercial.
I think doesn't the other corner where Triangle Landscape Supply is located already have the change and has plans for a supermarket. They are just waiting for the landscape place to move. I think I remember someone posting a commisioners comments about it 6 months ago or so
I had heard their plan or permit or whatever had expired and they are now looking to move forward so have to reapply. I believe I read that on the zoning discussion board.
I believe ncmom was correct. The corner with the Landscaping Co. is the tract in question. That tract has @ 13 acres.. Where the house was torn down is only about 1 acre. The adjoining property belongs to the Fords and is 20 acres or so, and while it possibly might be under contract, I think they still own it. Therefor, I would conclude that "mom" is right.
I say competition is healthy- Don Lees needs some competition I would love to see a little price war between them and another gas station! And maybe, just maybe their receipt printers will work too!!!
As usual, I'm confused! If the corner lot where the house was torn down is only 1 acre, how come there is a sign adverstising Cornwallis Crossing (or something like that name) shopping center? Can they really build a shopping center on 1 acre? I'm under the belief this corner is where the house was torn down because it is my understanding it is still zoned as residential. The planning dept. discussion board stated that it is not a commercially zoned area when the shopping center sign went up. There is no shopping center sign up for the corner where an actual shopping center plan is being submitted to the Planning Board for approval. (Just a huge vote for Fred Smith sign) This corner is where Triangle Landscape supply will be vacating and was approved as a commercial site years ago- so I don't believe it needs to be re-zoned again. The name of this proposed development is Cornwallis Commons.
I know they drained the pond behind that as well, I think they bought the land behind that house as well, from what I understand
NcMom, Just curious, does the Herald say if these zonings are going to be reviewed at the next Commissioner's zoning meeting in April? I also looked online for more info and found only two of the above listed on the April agenda. Were the others already decided in March? At this point, the March minutes is not available online. Thanks for the info.
ncmom could probably be correct in stating permits had expired. No, a shopping center can't be built on an acre. The 20 acre tract where the pond has been drained has been "under contract" at least a couple of times in the past, and may be now. As I explained in an earlier thread, brokers and/or developers will often tie a property up by putting it under contract, and then try to line up tenants to lease the spaces. That way they don't have to put up all the money to purchase a property until they have tenants in place. The banks like to see pre-leases/ presales before lending money on a project of any size, but particularly larger ones such as a shopping center. They like to know that the loan can be repaid.
