Minutes of the December 13, 1994 meeting were approved as submitted.
#1 RZ95-1 Jim Farmer requested approval of rezoning from R-1 to C-3 for 1.11 acres located north of Colony Drive, west of Richardson Drive.
A property owner on Colony Drive read a letter of opposition from property owners in the area and presented copies to the commissioners. They are opposed to the rezoning, stating decreased property values and aesthetic value of the neighborhood as being the reasons. Several of the property owners were in attendance. They further stated that they bought their homes where they did because of the surrounding R-1 zoning.
