REZ 02-26 — 40-room inn, 7 rental cottages, and 4,500-square-foot spa and clubhouse (47 total rentable rooms) in Cornelius, NC

Conditional zoning request for the Cornelius Inn project: a 40-room inn, 7 rental cottages, and a 4,500-square-foot spa and clubhouse on approximately 6 acres at the northwest corner of NC 73 and Mayes Road. The property would be rezoned from Rural Preservation (RP) to conditional zoning, a departure from the adopted land use plan that staff recommended approval for as a low-intensity commercial use appropriate to this specific location.
