#3 CONSIDER AND MAKE RECOMMENDATION: On a request submitted by Mr. Hoover
Edwards to rezone approximately three
(3) acres of land from R-l to GB
Mr. Edwards was present at the meeting to provide information about the
proposed use of the land he is requesting to rezone from R-l to GB. Mr.
Edwards presently owns a plumbing company on Main Street but he does not
have sufficient land available at that location for pipe storage. If the
land is rezoned to GB, he proposes to store various types of pipe on it,
such as iron and PVC, which he will sellout of the main business location.
He also advised that he would enclose the storage area with a chain length
fence and would probably have a building on site to serve as a small office.

Merwin Willman expressed his concern about increased drainage problems

and the City Engineer advised that he will continue to monitor development
toward the best possible solutions.
Ed Ford, the City Engineer, provided a briefing about the water lines in
the City and that, at present, there is sufficient water supply available.-
However, within three - five years, according to the amount of develop-
ment, he advised that larger lines would need to be installed and that
probably an additional water well drilled. Chairman Linebarger advised
that the P&Z Commission has already recommended that the city explore the
possibility of obtaining another water well for the future, even if it
involves a bond issue. '
Chairman Linebarger acknowledged the resignation of Bill Courtney from the
P&Z Commission because Mr. Courtney was recently elected to the City Council.
Mr. Courtney recommended that the P&Z Commission consider Mr. Camille
