Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes <br />December 18, 1997 <br /> <br />Page 24 <br /> <br />than the four lane roads we are now using Lu our urban areas to <br />carry the traffic which is projected for this proposal. He said he <br />does not think that is a reasonable thing to propose. Dr. Hartgen <br />said it just does not seem realistic to him to approve projects of this <br />magnitude and then hope that the dollars will show up for the <br />irdrastrac~e. <br /> <br />Mr. Mark Sellers, Property-Owner Beech Bluff, addressed the <br />Board asking them why are they considering changing everything <br />in order to accommodate' some gentlemen who in his opinion want <br />to make money. The people who are making this proposed change <br />are making it to make money. The rest of the people in this room <br />are here to make a life, and he thinks that should be considered in <br />this decision. <br /> <br />Ms. Cynthia L~pscomb, Property Owner Beech Bluff, addressed the <br />Board stating this does not'seem to make sense to change the <br />zoning. She said she does not think it would make any of the <br />residents in the area very happy and it would change the whole <br />character of the area. <br /> <br />The Chair closed the Public Hearing on Petition 97-19. <br /> <br />The Chair said the overriding concern heard from the owners was <br />the buffer. He asked the applicant ff there was any compromising <br />with the buffer between the land in Beech Bluff. He said there is a <br />100 foot buffer offer, but the adjacent property owners in Beech <br />Bluff would like to have a little bit more. He asked could a wider <br />buffer be offered without impacting the project? ' <br /> <br />Mr. Beal said he would have to consult with the petitioners. <br /> <br />'Mr. Marshall said one of the logistical -difficulties with-this many <br />petitioners is what You are talking about in a buffer area affects <br />two of those petitioners, Hoyle Holland and Ralph Bonds. He said <br />the only thing he can suggest to resolve that is to group their <br />questions and allow them~to respond. The other option .is to <br />consider it as presented .then state those possible positions and they <br />could be considered between this mee~_mg and the Board of <br />Commissioners. <br /> <br /> <br />
