Page 2A-THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Thursday, August 19, 1993 Ballew to head Plannin Lou Ballew will become the first woman chairman of the Planning and Zoning Board January 1 on the retirement of 30-year member and chairman Wilson Griffin. Kings Mountain City Council Tuesday night unanimously picked Ballew for the job. The board tabled until the August 31 meeting the appoint- ment of a 15-member ad hoc com- mittee which it established as a land use plan/review commitice. Three members of city council, three members of the planning and zoning board, including David Faunce, Terry Baker and Roger Goforth, and nine members from the community at large will serve on the committee. A land use plan/review committee has not been active in 25 years but the city wants to rewrite its zoning ordi- nances and the land use plan/re- view is the first step in that pro- cess. City Manager George Wood said the process of writing a land use plan and rewriting an outdated zon- ing ordinance could take two years. The board also reappointed David Faunce and M. C. Pruette to the zoning board and Kay Shriners offer The White Plains Shrine Club is offering a S100 reward for anyone helping them recover two tents which were stolen in Kings Mountain two weeks ago. The civic organization hopes to avoid having to replace the two yellow and green tents that mea- Obituaries Cloninger and Rev. John Houze as ncw members. Pructte was also rcappointed to the Moss Lake Commission on a 5-1 vote with Commissioner Al Morctz voting against. Commissioner Jerry White was abscnt. The board delayed un- til the August 31 meeting the ap- pointments to the board of adjust- ment. Other members of the ninc- member planning board with unex- pircd terms are Roger Goforth, Ballew, Terry Baker, Joe Smith and Joe King. Smith, who was present at the meeting, was asked by Councilman Phil Hager to serve as chairman of the zoning board but he declined because he serves as chairman of the Moss Lake com- mission. Other members of the Moss Lake commission with unexpired terms are Jackie D. Barrett, vice- chairman; Billy Hawkins, Evelyn Hamrick, Charles Ballew and Willard Boyles. Terms of G. V. Birmingham, chairman; Bob Myers, Clavon Kelly and Forte Gamble are expir- ing on the board of adjustment. Other member is Allen Fuller. The board expects to appoint two alter- sure 16 by 16 fect and 20 by 20 feet. "Why the thicves wanted the tents is hard to figure," said Shriner Larry Adams. "The Shriners use the tents to assist them in fund- ° raising activities for the crippled and burned children.

The board of adjustment oper- ates on a level between the cn- forcement officers and: the courts. If there were no board, cvery ap- peal from a building inspector's de- nial of a permit would have to ci- ther be taken to the courts or to the city council in the form of a re- quest for a change of zone or other amendment to the ordinance. Wood said that either course would be ex- pensive and difficult for the prop- erty owner, regardless of how just his case might be. The city charges a $80 fee for administration for each case that comes before this board which has the final authority. Mayor Scott Neisler said the land use/review committee will be involved in an in-depth review of existing and future zoning and land use and will meet for five or six times during the year with an eye to long-range plans and growth. "What they want the complexion of Kings Mountain to be in 10 years is the question this commit- tee will address,” said Wood. "This committee is a guide for decisions about sub-divisions and zoning." Wood said that the updating of zoning ordinances is critical. He said that the day-to-day administra- tion of the regulations is the re- sponsibility of the planning and zoning board with city council hav- ing the final authority. After the ad hoc committee's study is over, that committee would not function. The mayor and Councilman Moretz pushed for a broad base of membership, up to 15, on the board. Councilman Fred Finger suggested nine to 12 but later rec- ommended each councilman pick one member and the mayor sclect two. Councilman Jim Guyton asked if the planning/use board updates the zoning ordinances and subdivision regulations and Wood said that du- ty was up to the zoning board. Moretz said that members of the new committee should get precise definitions of what they need to do. "This job won't be easy and they won't please everyone,” he said. Wood said that the new commit- tee is clearly a guide for determin- ing zoning issues and at some point $100 reward Greenville, SC or Cincinnati, OH and you would know why they work so hard to raise the money. That money should go to help the children, not to replace stolen property.” The tents were stolen from Kings Mountain's Jake Early Field sometime after an evening game on CARRIE SIZEMORE Saturday, July 31, and the carly morning hours of August 2. Anyone with information lead- ing to the return of the tents should contact any White Plains Shriner or the Kings Mountain Police Department detective division.
