Mr. Amick from Amick Construction came before the Board again
regarding Fox Fire (see minutes of June 11, 1974 meeting). He
requests a change in zoning from R1A to R1 which will permit him to
construct houses with 1000 sq. feet living area rather than 1200 sq.
feet. His intentions are to comply with all R1A requirements in
regard to lot size and setbacks, building 119 houses suitable for
expansion, in the $23,500 to $25,000 price range.
Mr. Turner made the motion to accept Mr. Amick's petition,
seconded by Mr. Brooklyn. Mr. Thomas suggested to the Board that
care should be taken to be sure the motion reads as previously
stated, containing all stipulations, agreements, and amendments. He
then called for comments from the audience. Citizen Frank Smith
stated that he felt that we should try to attract a higher class of
people rather than a greater number. It was explained to him by the
Board and Mr. Amick that this was their aim also.
Mr. Turner and Mr. Brooklyn then withdrew the motion as stated,
following immediately with another motion to recommend to Council
Mr. Amick! >s petition for this change in zoning with the further
provision that there be 100 ft. right of way and 50 ft. setback from
the center line on Wurst Road. Mr. Lait seconded the motion,
Carried unanimously.
Mr. McRobert made the motion that the next regular meeting be
postponed to August 29 and that would also serve as a special meeting
and Public Hearing for Mr. Amick's petition. Mr. Lait seconded the
motion. Carried unanimously.
There was then discussion at length around the table regarding
zoning commercial the area on both sides of Silver Star Road between
Bluford Avenue and Highway 437.
Mr. McRobert made the motion to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Turner.
There being no further business, meeting adjourned at 9:10 P. M.
