ROLL CALL Members present: Messrs. Vanzin, Gaffney, Slaney, Petty, Mrs. Griffith, Mr. Landry arrived late. Also present: Mrs. Winks APPROVAL OF MINUTES Moved by Mr. Slaney, seconded by Mrs. Griffith, and CARRIED 5-0, to approve the minutes of the August 23, 1982 meeting. OLD BUSINESS Chairman Vanzin read Mr. Dunning's letter of September 16, 1982, withdrawing his application for rezoning of property on Park Ave West, and Mr. Slaney's letter dated November 4, 1982, clarifying his motion made on July 26, 1982. Mr. Clay Henderson who is representing the contract purchaser for the Bell property addressed the Commission. Mr. Henderson reviewed the history of the Dunning application noting that in the beginning rezoning of the Dunning property was considered to be spot zoning. Council then asked for the Zoning Commission to determine if they would like to consider rezoning the entire area. The Ordinance 81-0-25 was eventually prepared and advertised. After the first reading of the ordinance, it was changed to B-2 by the Council and then a public hearing was scheduled. Mr. Henderson stated that when Zoning recommended the rezoning of the entire area, the request changed from a personal request to a request from the governing body of the city. Therefore Mr. Henderson flet that since Mr. Bell's property was included in this ordinance he would not have to file an application. This ordinance was tabled by the Council and is waiting for clarification from the Zoning Commission. Members of the audience were concerned about the property east of the Dunning property being rezoned. Mr. Henderson explained that there was an error in the advertisement of the ordinance and it should not have included property east of the Dunning property. Mr. Henderson felt that since Mr. Dunning withdrew, all that Council should be considering is the property west to Wildwood. The ordinance would have to be reworded. The Commission noted that on July 26 they voted 5-0 to recommend to Council that the property east of Dunning's property be left with its original zoning and they voted 4-1 to deny Mr. Dunning's request to rezone. There was much objection from the audience to the rezoning of this area. Moved by Mr. Gaffney, seconded by Mr. Landry to give due consideration to Mr. Bell's request for rezoning providing that he submits those items required along with the proper application for rezoning. CARRIED 5-0. Moved by Mrs. Griffith, seconded by Mr. Landry, and CARRIED 5-0, to accept Mr. Slaney's letter as clarification of his motion and forward this to the City Council. Chairman Vanzin noted Mrs. Henderson's letter on the criteria for annexation. Moved by Mr. Slaney, seconded by Mrs. Griffith, and CARRIED 5-0 to table the discussion on annexation. NEW BUSINESS Amendment to Zoning Code, B-5 Permitted Uses Mr. Frank Cannon was present to discuss his request. He noted that under the B-5 Permitted Uses, Dry Cleaning Establishments are permitted as pick up stations only. He would like the wording change to omit "pick up stations only".
