A motion was made by Don Taylor to approve the rezoning of this 3.40 acre tract from R-A to a C-I Zoning Classification. Motion seconded by Fleta Pepper and passed with Mark Revenew opposing.

 

2.   FRED WILLIAMS has Petitioned for a "Conditional Use" to build two apartments over the proposed real estate office on lot 2 of a 5 acre tract located in the southeast quadrant of Quacco/Pine Barren Road.
