board noting that this plat had already been approved, but due
to the demands of the Environmental Protection Agency the
location of Westgate Way would have to be changed. Mr. Faires
stated the reason for this demand from the EPA was due to the
fact that some years ago a company had buried a lot plastic
insulation at this particular location, which is not
biodegradable, and therefore will not hold up to
construction.

from. Mr. Faires stated that he was not sure but that it was
just a minor relocation of Westgate Way and that the entrances
and exits of Westgate, Phase I would remain the same and that
engineering had approved this plat.

interior of their project and they met the guidelines of the

Chaney asked Mr. Faires to address the board on this item.
Mr. Faires noted that this particular piece of property had
been replatted several years ago from the corner of Jackson
Street and the railroad tracks, and between Jackson and
Birmingham with the intention of the Kreymer Co. building a
Savings and Loan Association. He added that because of the
economy the plans to build this Savings and Loan have been
changed and tonight the Kreymer Co. is requesting to divide
this piece of property into two pieces. Mr. Faires noted it
is the intention of their company to create a smaller tract
(RI ) as shown on the plans. Mr. Faires recognized Jim
McKnight, representative of the Kreymer Co. , and directed any
questions the board had to him.
Chairman Chaney stated to the members of the board that this
was a common practice for commercial properties.
Bob Skipwith asked Mr. McKnight if the dark dash line on the
plan was the building line.
Jim McKnight noted that they had 0. 344 acres or a total of
15, 000 square feet out of almost 2 acres to build their office
on. He also stated that the line Mr. Skipwith was referring
to was the Railroad Companies which as shown on the plan was
barred from any construction so as not to block the view of
oncoming trains.
Bob Skipwith asked why part of this property was zoned B2 and
part Industrial. Mr. Faires stated that the City Council had
changed this zoning several years ago. It was previously
zoned all Industrial and they did not want that zoning on
Jackson Street. Mr. Faires also added that this zoning of B2
on Jackson Street was a down grading from a more freer use to
a more stricter use.
Chairman Chaney asked if anyone had any more questions. Bob
Skipwith asked Mr. Faires if this met with all of the City' s
regulations. Mr. Faires stated that it did.
Bart Peddicord made the motion to recommend to the City
Council the replatting of this Item. This motion was seconded
by Marty Stovall. This motion carried with all in favor.
