In October of 2000, City Council approved a Preliminary Plat and a zoning change from LI (Light Industrial) to PD-189-LI to allow the development of an indoor basketball/recreational facility (referred to as "Hoop Town") on 17 acres. In December, Council approved an amendment to the PD to Item # 7 enlarge the recreational site by an approximate .7 of an acre to better address tree mitigation issues. The zoning was never legally changed, the plat was never filed and consequently, the project was never built. In April of 2005, Industrial Development International (the applicant in this 3-acre request) purchased the property and an additional 10 acres and was approved to build a 375,000-square-foot warehouse/distribution center on the 27-acre lot.
