Other business brought before the Commission but not on the agenda:
John Kitterman’s request for a site development plan off Caraway Road behind the Garden Restaurant was not acted upon.
Roger Moore came before the Commission to request permission to build on land on South Caraway Road, located North of Mack’s Hamburgers and South of Danvers Restaurant. The land in question had not been platted into lots and was sold on a meets and bounds description. The MAPC decided they would not hold the previous owners to fulfill requirements of the city because a final development plan had never been brought before the MAPC. By a raised hand vote, with all members showing approval, it was recommended that Joe Tomlinson, Building Inspector, issue a building permit to Mr. Moore on the meets and bounds description of this property.
Being no further business, the meeting was adjourned by the Chairman at 10.35 p.m.
