77-8774 — Residential Large Lot (currently vacant with some residential and agricultural uses) in Clayton, NC
This is a conventional rezoning of 476.82 acres of recently annexed properties to RLL zoning, required by state statute within 60 days of annexation. No development is currently planned; if the properties are developed in the future, a separate rezoning request will be submitted. Planning staff recommends approval as the request is consistent with existing Johnston County future land use designations, though it is not currently consistent with the Gateway 42 Small Area Plan.
