Section 1: That Title 14 known as the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Jonesboro be amended by the change in zoning district boundaries as follows:
From Residential (R-2) to Commercial (C-4 L.U.O.), property described as follows: All of Lot 48 & the West 10’-6” of Lot 49 all in Cobb’s Survey of the NW Quarter of the NE Quarter of Section 19, Township 14 North, Range 4 East, to the City of Jonesboro, AR, as shown by plat of record in Plat Book 48 at Page 109.
Section 2: That the subject property shall be screened from any abutting residential.
Section 3: That the existing structure shall be made to comply with all fire and building code requirements.
Section 4: Proposed uses for the land are scheduled to begin in the month of October, 2008. The inability to schedule these sessions due to unavailability of said property poses a threat to the health and welfare of the population served. The property has also been vacant for two months and, therefore, is not of public benefit to the community. For those reasons, it is found and declared by the City Council that an emergency exists and this ordinance being necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health and safety, shall take effect from and after its passage and approval.
