Item No. 3:                                                       Old Business.

 

In Old Business, Chairman Sherwin advised he had forwarded the proposed zoning amendment for “CC” Commercial Campgrounds to East Alabama Planning Commission and it had been reviewed by Mrs. Dawn Landholm.

The Planning Commission read the amendment and discussed the proposed changes made by Mrs. Landholm.

Chairman Sherwin will call Mrs. Landholm and discuss with her some questions concerning the proposed changes to the parking pad and surface material.

 

Item No. 4:                                                       New Business

 

In New Business, Secretary/Clerk DeLana Martin advised the Commission she had been approached by Mr. B J Gambill about rezoning property located on Old Highway 9 and possibly building efficiency apartments.

Mrs. Martin also informed the Commission of a situation on County Road 617 involving property that was annexed into the town limits in 2003 and has never been rezoned from the “RR” Rural Residential Zone.

The potential buyers of the property are trying to finance the property and with the current “RR” zone it can’t be financed because it is only suitable for camper trailers.  The buyers feel it is the town’s responsibility to rezone the property since they annexed it and put a pumping station on it for the campers.

It is the consensus of the Planning Commission that the property be looked at and consider what needs to be done about the situation.  Chairman Sherwin and Commission Member Summers will go look at the property and let the Commission know about the situation.

 

Item No. 6:                                                       Adjournment.

 

There being no further business to come before the meeting, a motion was made by W K Summers, seconded by DeLana Martin, that the meeting be adjourned         (6::06 p. m).  Motion carried (5-0).
