body
PUBLIC HEARING 6:00 P.M. - A public hearing was conducted for the purpose of vacating and abandoning a drainage and utility easement located in the Craighead Technology Park, as requested by the Chamber of Commerce. No opposition was voiced.
APPEAL HEARING 6:10 P.M. - Attorney C.M. Mooney, Sr. represented Mr. J. Gardner Lile. Mr. Mooney requested Council to conduct the appeal hearing but table the reading of the ordinance until July 16, 2001, because of an incorrect legal description. Councilman Kelton questioned the zoning classification of the ordinance. After some discussion regarding the most appropriate zoning classification, Mr. Mooney requested that Alderman Kelton fax his office with the correct zoning description so he could prepare a new ordinance for the next council meeting. Mr. Kelton requested City Planner, Glenn Batten to provide the zoning information to Mr. Mooney. Mayor Brodell informed Council that the City of Jonesboro owns approximately seventeen acres along the railroad track near the Southwestern Bell property, and the drawing provided by Mr. Mooney’s office was incorrect.
