MOORESVILLE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS <br />MINUTES <br /> THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2001 <br /> <br />The board of Zoning Appeals met on Thursday, November 8, 2001, at 7:00 P.M. at the <br />Mooresville Town Hall. <br /> <br />Members present were: President Don Barry, Alan Kramer and Jon Swisher. Mike <br />Young and Jeff Justus were absent. T;m Currens, Town Attorney was absent. <br /> <br />Motion was made to approve the minutes as amended by Son Swisher and second by <br />Alan Kramer. Motion carried 3-0. <br /> <br />Next on the agenda was Coyote Creek to determine the zoning classification for an <br />indoor shooting range at 940 State Road 67 South. Mr. Jack Perry, owner of the <br />Mooresville Bowling Center, said the bowling alley was closed last May and they have <br />built storage on the property. They want to use the existing building as an indoor <br />shooting range. The property is now zoned 1-2, but there is not a classification for the <br />indoor range. Mr. Ken Fisher, owner of the Ace Hardware and Fisher Automotive, Inc. <br />in Mooresville, stated they wanted to mm the bowling alley into a pistol shooting range. <br />They have contacted the National Rifle Association on the regulation required to build a <br />shooting range, such as how to insulate the building for sound and safety regulations. <br />They have examined several other firing ranges. They have determined the building can <br />accommodate sixteen (16) fnSng lanes or fn'ing booths, they plan to start with five (5) <br />booths and then expand as business grows, eventually having ten (10) booths. They also <br />plan to sell guns, ammunition and offer training in use of guns and safety. They have a <br />Federal Firearms license to sell guns and ammunition and their son-in-law has been <br />trained by the NRA in firearms safety. <br /> <br />Mr. Barry stated the duty of the Zoning Board was to set the classification for an indoor <br />shooting range, since there is not a classification in our town ordinance. Mr. Barry read a <br />letter from the Town Attorney stating that in reviewing other Ordinances that this type of <br />use is generally placed in a B-3 General Business or I-1 or 1-11 Industrial classification or <br />all three (3). He thought this information from other communities might be helpful and it <br />would seem logical if it fits to allow it in each of these areas. It seem that a higher <br />industrial use would conflict with the commercial use. <br /> <br />Mr. Barry stated that it is up to the Board to determine if the shooting range shouM be <br />allowed in one or all three (3) classifications. Mr. Barry stated that the boundaries for <br />buffers enlarge for each classification. Mr. Kramer asked if that area was all classified as <br />Industrial? Mr. Barry stated that the area was all-industrial. He said that if the <br />classification was higher that I-Il that a Commercial business could not build next to <br />them because of the buffer zone requirement without ''asking for a variance. Mr. Fisher <br />asked if with a B-3 classification could a shooting range go into a shopping mall and <br /> <br /> <br />
