CZ-2021-19 — Public elementary school and associated site amenities in Kannapolis, NC
This case amends the conditions of an existing R8-CZ (Residential 8-Conditional Zoning) district on 33.3 acres to allow development of a public elementary school with 842-student capacity and associated amenities, scheduled to open August 2028. The project will impact traffic on Sudbury Road and surrounding intersections, requiring NCDOT improvements and a traffic impact analysis for areas including Davidson Road, Odell School Road, and Highway 3 intersections. Environmental and traffic concerns were raised by neighbors, with conditions requiring final site plan approval, NCDOT driveway permits, and compliance with land development standards.
