motion carried with all in favor .
APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR TWIN LAKES SUBDIVISION:
Code Enforcement Office Roy Faires stated that Engineering
and Planning had reviewed these plans. Everything seems to
be in order except for the two lots at the entrance of the
subdivision. These lots have easements on them and can not
be built on, therefore should not show on the plat as lots.
Mr. Tobin, representative for the owners, stated that they
knew these lots could not be built on. Mr . Faires said that
once the preliminary plat is approved, it has to remain the
same for the final plat. Therefore these easements will
have to stay on these lots. Mr . Tobin asked the board to
let him take the plans back to his engineers and explain
this to them and come back to your next meeting. Mr . Faires
stated that you could not make this type of variance from
the preliminary to final plat . The easements have to be
marked on the preliminary the same as on the final .
Chairman Chaney said the best thing to do is to table this
item until the easements and lots are correctly shown on the
plat . Motion was made by Mr . Peddicord to table until all
corrections are made. Seconded by Mr . Skipwith. This
motion carried with all in favor .
DISCUSSION OF POSSIBLE RE-ZONING OF LOT 1C, BLOCK 9 RAILROAD
ADDITION: Code Enforcement Office Roy Faires stated this
property is located around Second St . and Jefferson St .
behind the Nursing Home. Mr. Faires also stated that this
property was re-zoned in 1984 from Retail to Industrial at
the property owners request . The owner at that time made a
presentation to Planning and Zoning and to City Council and
was granted his re-zoning, but it was zoned on what was
told these boards and not with the understanding of what
could happen with this type zoning. Mr . Faires said a
present council member has come to my office and wants to
know what can be done about all the equipment being parked
there. Mr . Faires said that zoning could be done at the
request of the property owner or initiated by Planning and
Zoning or City Council . There was a lot of discussion from
the Board on how the Industrial Zoning on this property has
down graded the looks of the City at this intersection of
Highway 78 . Chairman Brian Chaney wanted to know if the
City Attorney had said anything about this or what could
come from a re-zoning at this time. Mr . Faires said he said
to go ahead , the City has the right to zone property.
Mrs . Wood said that Planning and Zoning would re-zone this
property back to Retail to conform with the surrounding
zoning. It was the consensus of the board to begin re-
zoning process on this property.
There being no other business , a motion was made to adjourn
with all in favor .
Brian Chaney, Chairman
Respectfully submitted,
Carolyn Jones , City Secretary

PUBLIC HEARING ON THE REZONING OF LOT 1C, BLOCK 9: Code
Enforcement Officer Roy Faires stated in 1984 a rezoning was
requested and granted to zone the property industrial . At
this time nothing resembles the presentation to justify this
request. Mr . Faires feels due to spot zoning it needs to be
rezoned retail . Chairman Chaney asked if anyone would like
to speak for the rezoning of lot lc block 9 .
Mr. Chester Zikowski was present at the meeting speaking as
a citizen living in the area who also spoke with neighbors
in the area speaking of whom were also in favor of zoning it
retail . He stated he was in favor of rezoning the property
retail because there is a narrow road by his house that he
felt would have to be inlarged if it was zoned industrial .
He felt zoning it industrial would interfere with his
property due to the road, so he was not in favor of zoning
it industrial .
Chairman Chaney asked if there was anyone present who would
like to speak against the rezoning of block 1C.
Mr. Mel Sherwood was opposed to the rezoning of the lots for
the reasons being:
1 When Mr. Sherwood purchased the land he was assured the
property was zoned industrial .
