TRACT LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF STATE ROUTE 642
(ALLEGHANY DRIVE), 0.5 MILE NORTH OF U. S. ROUTE
11-460) IN THE CATAWBA DISTRICT
Mrs. W. R. Young, adjoining property owner, appeared before
the Board in regard to this request and advised that the app1ican ,
Mr. Rogers, purchased the property in question from her, but
without any knowledge on her part that Mr. Rogers intended to
place a mobile home on the land. Mr. Rogers was present at the
hearing and stated that there were six trailers in the vicinity.
Mr. Ti1don T. Tuttle, area resident, advised that the other
trailers in the area are on commercial property, not residential
lots. Mr. Tuttle stated that he felt a mobile home would devalue
his property and the property of others in the area.
This concluded the public hearing, and after consideration
of the merits of the request, Supervisor Myers moved that the
request be denied since this proposed use of land would be
incompatible with the surrounding area, which motion was
adopted by the following recorded vote:

therefore incompatible with the surrounding area, which motion
