Executive Summary:
The subject property is currently zoned Single-Family Residential 10 (SF-10). This property was developed as a YMCA community facility with a pool and a 2,700 sq/ft clubhouse building. The property is located on Westgate Drive, although it has a Hope Mills Road address. However, the property does not have access to Westgate Drive, which is a private road. The owner is requesting to rezone this property to CC - Community Commercial.
