26-02 — Industrial Warehouse Distribution in Johnston County, NC

Longleaf Industrial is proposing to rezone 51.75 acres on Cornwallis Road from Agricultural Residential to Industrial 1-Conditional Zoning for a warehouse distribution facility, contradicting the Comprehensive Plan's Medium Density Residential designation for the area. The project includes traffic improvements, 50-foot buffers to residential uses, and stormwater controls, but faces significant opposition from adjacent residents concerned about property values, traffic impacts, environmental effects, and incompatibility with the rural residential character of the township.
