HISTORY:
City Council rezoned the property to "C" Commercial in October of 1995,
in compliance with the terms of an agreement settling a lawsuit. The
Planing and Zoning Commission and City Council approved a
preliminary plat for the property early in 1998. During first quarter of
1998, the applicant submitted a commercial planned development zoning
change request which both the Planning and Zoning Commission and City
Council denied. Shortly after, the applicant submitted a variance request
to the Board of Adjustment to allow the 7,200 sq. ft. of required perimeter
landscaping to be incorporated in the interior landscaping. On January 7,
1999 the Board of Adjustment granted the request to the applicant. City
Council approved the site plan on this site at the March 9, 1999 meeting.
