APPEAL HEARING - 6:15 P.M. - An appeal hearing was conducted, as requested by Mr. Dale Williams and his attorney, C. M. Mooney, Sr. regarding denial by the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission to place a manufactured home at 610 Airport Road. Attorney Mooney submitted a petition containing 17 signatures of local residents in favor of the request. Mr. Rick Wyatt, Developer of a subdivision in the area, provided Council with a petition containing 56 signatures of local residents in opposition to the request. Mr. Wyatt also submitted a letter from Mrs. Valda M. Jordan who sold the property for development to Mr. Wyatt, and owns the property adjacent to the subdivision. Questions were raised as to whether or not this was a hardship case. It was determined by Mr. Wadley of the Inspections Department that it was not, because it was of a permanent nature. Mr. Wadley read the minutes from the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission which stated Mrs. Betty Shaw moved to deny the request because it would be a detriment to the type of development that is occurring in the area. The motion was seconded by Dr. Beadles. The vote of the MAPC was six aye votes and one nay.
