The general location of this property is south of Race Street and west of Curtview Acres and east of Fairfield Road.
Mr. Tilton made a motion to deny request, seconded by Mr. Cooper. Reason for denial was based on MAPC’S previous position on limiting commercial zoning in that area to that which already exists.
