PUBLIC HEARING - 6:00 P.M. - A public hearing was held regarding the abandonment of an alley located in Culberhouse Subdivision of Knight’s 2nd Addition. Mr. Roger Abernathy had requested the abandonment. No opposition was voiced.

APPEAL HEARING - 6:05 P.M. - An appeal hearing was conducted at the request of Mr. Joel Taylor for The Merritt Group regarding the failure of the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission to grant a Conditional Use Permit for a cell tower located at the 2300 block of Brown’s Lane. Mr. Taylor’s request for the cell tower was filed prior to a moratorium being enforced on permits for the location and construction of off-premises billboards and high-pole signs and for communication towers, Resolution No. 2003:25. City Planner, Glenn Batten explained the matter had been appealed one time before and was returned to the M.A.P.C., but the property owner of record had not signed and should have been pulled from consideration. He also explained the site development plan was only received last Tuesday, with no documentation being received by Alltel. Due to the application being incomplete, Mr. Batten recommended the matter be tabled until all information had been received.
