1999. On March 2, 2000, the Board of Adjustment granted a variety
of requests for variances and special exceptions for Lot 5, to allow
reduced required setbacks and to allow less than five parking spaces
in a row. On May 9, 2000, City Council approved a final plat and
site plan for the subject lot (Lot 5) to allow a 5,046-square-foot retail
