A
If
you
will
please
silence
or
turn
off
your
cell
phones
this
morning
and
today
we're
operating
under
much
different
circumstances,
as,
as
you
all
are
aware,
we
have
some
commissioners
that
are
watching
by
television
and
by
youtube
will
be
forwarding
questions
to
me
via
text.
We
all,
we
will
also
have
citizens
calling
in
via
phone
with
questions
or
comments,
so
we
ask
those
watching
here
and
by
other
means
to
be
patient
with
us
as
we
move
these
cases
forward.
A
The
phone
number
in
which
to
call
in
is
706
225-3937
and
it's
scrolling
on
the
screen
right
now,
and
I
remind
those
the
audience
and
those
watching
on
television,
that
this
is
the
first
hearing
of
any
rezoning
text,
change
or
special
exception
request
brought
forth
today.
We
will
first
hear
a
reading
of
the
staff
report
for
the
case
by
planning
staff
and
ask
the
applicant
then
to
provide
a
brief
overview
of
the
request.
A
We
will
then
give
the
opportunity
for
anyone
in
the
audience
to
speak,
for
or
against
that
said,
request
or
to
inquire
about
the
said
request.
The
commissioners
will
have
any
needed
discussion
on
the
case.
Once
a
motion
is
made
and
seconded
by
the
commission,
a
vote
will
take
place
and
a
recommendation
will
be
rendered.
A
A
A
A
A
Okay,
so
we'll
consider
those
accepted
all
right
for
those
in
the
audience
that
came
for
45.90,
woodruff
road,
if
you're
here
for
4590
woodruff
road-
I
just
want
to
let
you
know
that
case
has
been
pulled
and
they
have.
They
have
decided
not
to
go
forward
with
that.
So
I
don't
want
to
waste
your
time
with
you
sitting
here
also
case
our
third
case,
which
is
a
noticeable
zone.
A
A
So
that
leaves
us
with
one
two,
three,
four
five
six
cases
for
today
we
got
four
zoning
cases
and
we've
got
two
special
exec
exception
cases.
So
we'll
move
on
to
actually
case
number
two
first,
and
this
is
a
request
to
rezone
1.08
acres

There
will
be

The
site
shall
include
a

Is
sfr3
45
property
owners
within
300
feet
of
the
subject's
properties
were
notified
of
the
rezoning
request.
The
planning
department
received
no
calls
in
or
emails
regarding
the
rezoning.
C
D
Please,
actually
my
name
is
richard
mobley,
I'm
a
commercial
director
of
big
staff,
farm
real
estate
and
reynolds
couldn't
make
it
today
he's
actually
at
home
with
with
cole.
But
now
so
we
don't
want
him
here,
but
but
we
do,
we
do
manage
the
property
for
for
the
owners
who
actually
live
in
new
york,
and
there,
like
I
said
they
were
built
in
1969
with
31
units
they
caught
fire
back
in
july
of
last
year
and
in
order
to
rebuild
back
remodel
the
ones
that
got
burned.
D
A
D
D
A
All
right,
thank
you,
mr
mobley,
all
right,
so
anyone
the
audience
like
to
speak
for
this
case
please
come
forward
at
this
time,
is
anyone
that
would
like
to
come,
speak
against
this
or
have
comments
about
this?
Please
come
forward
at
this
time.
If
you
would
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record,
please.
F
F
Having
lived
there
for
34
years,
I'm
an
eyewitness
to
the
impact
this
apartment
complex
has
had
on
the
area
from
the
time
when
it
was
young
bankers,
school
teachers
to
criminals.
So
if
we
can
improve
the
complex,
I'm
all
for
it,
but
I'm
not
convinced
that
rezoning.
The
area
where
the
complex
is
located
is
the
solution
that
would
help
the
area
or
be
in
compliance
really
with
the
intent
of
the
udo.
F
F
It
was
there
when
I
bought
my
house
and
when
the
neighbors
bought
theirs,
and
I
empathize
that
it's
burned
up
and
they've
got
an
investment
that
they
need
to
recover,
but
re-zoning
it
would
allow
a
lot
more
than
rezoning
it
to
ro
would
allow
it
to
do
a
lot
more
than
what's
there
ro
as
compared
to
rmf2
would
allow
a
10
story.
Building
ro
would
allow
a
hundred
percent.
F
F
The
purpose
is
to
provide
a
transitional
buffer
between
more
intense
commercial
zoning
districts
and
less
dense
residential
zoning
districts,
except
for
two
businesses
on
winton
road
which
adjoin
the
south
side
of
this
apartment.
Complex
everything
around.
It
is
residential
everything
to
the
west,
and
I
will
point
out
that
your
staff
report
contains
an
existing
a
land
use
map.
That's
entirely
wrong.
F
F
Residents
to
the
east
is
multi-family
to
the
northeast
is
multi-family,
and
then
this
shows
commercial
and
I
don't
need
to
get
into
it.
That's
not
there's
one
commercial,
there's
a
doctor's
office,
and
this
is
multi-family.
There's
a
small
office
and
the
rest
of
this
is
either
single-family
or
multi-family,
but
everything
in
our
neighborhood
has
always
been
single
family.
F
These
two
parcels
are
the
only
two
commercial.
This
is
even
single-family
residential
over
here
and
they
may
be
zoned
differently,
but
I'm
talking
about
existing
use
your
goal,
according
to
the
future
land
use
map,
is
this:
that's
what
the
whole
intent
of
the
udo
and
y'all's
planning
advice
is
to
accomplish
this
more
residential
and
less
commercial.
F
F
In
other
words,
if
you
put
what
was
there,
I
don't
think
people
like
me
have
a
right
to
complain
quite
frankly,
because
it
was
there
when
I
bought
my
house,
and
it
would
hopefully
be
in
better
shape
than
it
is
now
or
was
before
it
burned
down,
but
to
rezone
the
area.
I
just
foresee
more
complaints,
more
non-conforming
uses
to
what
is
appropriate
for
the
neighborhood
but
allowed
under
ro.
F
F
We
are
requesting
the
property
be
re-zoned
to
ro,
which
would
allow
the
owners
to
rebuild
the
damaged
units,
keep
the
zoning
the
way
it
is
and
let
them
rebuild
the
units,
that's
all
they
want
to
do.
They
don't
want
commercial
uses,
they
don't
want
43
units,
which
is
what
ro
allows.
They
don't
want
a
10
story
building
because
it
allows
150
feet
just
keep
it
rmf
too,
but
give
them
an
exception
because
they
were
grandfathered
in,
and
I
don't
is
that
possible.
A
G
G
A
F
F
My
concern
is
that
if
you
rezone
it
to
ro,
the
burden
is
now
on
you
to
speculate
or
to
cover
or
to
anticipate
everything
that
is
allowed
by
ro
that
you
don't
want
here
as
opposed
to
keeping
it
the
way
it
is
and
not
allowing
the
other
stuff
I'm
okay,
with
either
one.
If
you,
we
can
trust
that
some
future
owner
doesn't
come
back
and
say
well
when
y'all
authorized
us
to
rebuild
this,
you
forgot
that
we
can
do
this
and
you
didn't
condition
it
on
that.
Well,.
F
I'm
saying
if
you
didn't
condition
something
because
you
overlooked
it
right,
then
that
owner
doesn't
have
to
come
back
here.
They
can
just
do
it
now.
People,
like
me,
are
going
to
say:
wait
a
minute.
They've
got
a
an
office
complex
there.
Oh,
we
forgot
to
condition
it
they're
not
supposed
to
have
that
there.
Well,
I'm
sorry,
you
forgot
now
it's
there.
F
A
H
D
G
H
A
I
I
I
I
I
A
A
All
right,
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
to
restrict
the
height,
restrict
it
to
apartment
use
only
and
to
the
number
of
units.
That's
there
plus
they
will
have
to
follow
the
udo
with
regards
to
the
ro
zoning.
Is
there
a
second?
Do
we
have
a
second?
Yes,
we
have
a
second
any
discussion,
all
those
in
favor
to
accept
this
as
written.
Please
raise
your
right
hand,
as
stated,
I
should
say
all
right
and
all
opposed
got
one
opposed

two,
three,
four,

one
against

were

received

was
in
opposition.

A

A
A
K
K
The
south
side
is
already
full
of
all
different
kinds
of
everything
and
everybody,
and
we
feel
that
a
tire
shop
on
that
one
specific
corner
which
is
really
tight,
is
going
to
make
things
worse.
We
don't
want
it
there.
There
are
a
lot
of
other
places
that
they
can
get
besides
right
there,
it's
bad
enough.
K
We
got
people
out
there
with
young
people,
really
not
mature
people,
doing
donuts
in
the
road
and
running
up
and
down
the
street
and
the
store
across
the
street
they're
crowding
in
there,
and
we
don't
need
more
traffic
in
that
area.
Now,
a
lot
of
people
that
live
out
there
myself
included,
are
quiet,
elderly.
K
You
know
mature
people
out
there
and
we
want
our
neighborhood
to
at
least
stay
part
of
that
way.
Now
I
don't
have
any
grievance
against
him
trying
to
make
a
better
life
for
his
family,
but
not
right
there.
The
corner
is
tight,
it
is
small,
it
is
not
going
to
be
feasible.
People
going
in
and
out
getting
tires
in
and
out
of
the
store,
there's
a
four-way
traffic
light
right.
K
There
there's
a
house
over
here,
a
house
behind
it
house
across
the
street
house
over
here:
no
leave
it
com,
leave
it
from
family
or
what
is
it
remf
whatever
it
is,
leave
it
like?
It
is
because
all
these
people
and
a
lot
of
the
people
on
this
list
also
attend
the
church.
That's
right
down
the
street.
No,
we
don't
want
that
in
our
neighborhood
now,
if
it
was
going
to
be
something
that's
going
to
benefit
the
neighborhood
most
definitely,
but
that
is
not
going
to
benefit
the
neighborhood
you
got
tires
everywhere.
K
You
got
snakes
everywhere,
rats,
the
whole
nine
yards.
That
building
is
going
to
collect
everything.
No,
we
don't
want
it
in
our
neighborhood.
Why
can't
they
put
it
in
their
own
neighborhood
that'll,
be
even
better
put
them
in
your
neighborhood.
You
want
to
build
things
better
for
your
family,
put
it
in
your
neighborhood,
not
ours.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
L
Good
morning
my
name
is
shannon
hubbard.
I
live
at
3012
north
london
road
just
right
below
where
they're
talking
about
building,
and
also
I'm
opposed
to
that.
Like
ms
michael
said,
it
is
a
heavy
area
for
traffic,
but
I
went
on
victory
drive
and
there
are
different
buildings
with
better
parking
that
I
think
that
they
can
look
at
for
one
is
the
h
marked
that's
for
rent
and
it
has
the
parking
space
and
it
will
allow
heavy
traffic
due
to
being
victory,
drive
they
can
easily
get
in
and
out.
L
A
K
K
K
K
I
don't
have
anything
against
him:
building
a
better
life
for
his
family.
I
don't
but
put
it
in
your
neighborhood.
You
know
put
it
somewhere
in
your
neighborhood,
not
ours.
That's
all!
I'm
saying
we
want
to
keep
our
neighborhood
a
neighborhood,
not
a
commercial
hood,
so
that
and
that's
that's
what
we're
trying
to
do-
and
I
spoke
to
mr
menthro
several
times-
he's
very
sweet
and
very
kind
of
very
polite.
Thank
you
so
much
for
listening
to
me.
B
I
mean
basically,
general
commercial
is
our
most
widely
available
uses
category.
So
I
mean
tire.
Shop
is
just
one
of
the
150,
so
things
that
he
could
technically
put
there
unless
it's
conditioned
as
far
as
property
values,
I'm
not
a
real
estate
person,
but
normally
general
commercial
in
the
surrounding
area.
The
the
homes
directly
directly
adjacent
to
it
tend
to
tend
to
fall.
A
Okay,
we'll
take
all
that
because,
plus
you,
if
you
would
look
up
at
the
screens,
that
was
the
petition
that
they
brought
in,
and
I
did
manage
to
read
what
I
could
see
all
right.
Thank
you
all
very
much
all
right.
Anyone
else
that
would
like
to
come,
speak
for
or
against,
and
please
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record.
M
This
area
has
been
there
since
forever.
I
used
to
play
ball
there
at
the
south
columbus
boys
club
I
used
to
cut
through.
I
still
come
through
there,
probably
three
or
four
times
a
week,
because
it's
just
a
cut
through
from
casita
road,
30th
avenue
right
over
to
victory,
drive
in
downtown
and
the
neighbors
have
worked
really
hard
over
the
years
to
better
the
neighborhood,
to
get
people
in
there
to
demolish
some
of
the
old
houses
and
get
better
housing
up
and
they're
really
taking
great
care
of
the
area.
So
I
don't.
M
I
don't
really
see
where
this
would
be
a
good
fit
for
the
area.
Mrs
daley
cruz
has
done
a
great
job
in
the
area
she
owned,
some
other
property
down.
At
the
other
end
of
norfolk,
road
toward
the
victory,
drive-in
and
she's
done
some
great
things
in
the
area,
so
I
would
like
to
see
if
we
could
sit
down
and
talk
about
it
and
kind
of
put
this
on
delay
for
a
minute.
M
M
I
just
told
them
I
would
follow
up.
I
didn't
tell
them.
I
was
surprised
that
I
showed
up
this
morning,
but
it's
that
important
to
me.
It's
a
lot
going
on
in
the
area.
Columbus
is
growing,
it's
moving
the
right
direction
and
we
just
need
to
be
careful
what
we
place
in
these
spots,
because
we
have
some
tire
areas
up
on
the
casita
road
area
down
on
the
victory
drive
area.
So
I
thank
you
for
listening
this
morning
and
hopefully,
if
there's
any
way,
we
can
get
this
delayed.

with
the
intention
of
protecting

entrance

of

was
obviously
to

the

on

We've
got

heard
about.
It's
been
released
that
that

be

for
that,
and
we
will
be
redeveloping
that
block
to
support
the
surrounding
offices

units
in

to
provide
more
amenities
to

My

Okay,
I
have
a

Do
I
have
a

We
got
plenty
of

in

this

Please

Thank
you
very
much
all
right.
That
concludes
our
rezoning
cases.
For
today,
we
will
move
on
to
our
special
exceptions.
We
have
two
of
those,
and
the
first
special
exception
case
is.
A
Excp04210663,
this
is
a
request
for
special
exception
use
at
1342
17th
street
current
zoning
is
rmf
one
residential
multifamily
one,
the
proposed
use
is
church
daycare
type.
Three
matt
stevens
is
the
applicant.
This
property
is
located
in
council
district
7
woodson,
and
we
will
hear
from
planning
first
on
this
case.
B
Yes,
sir,
this
is
a
request
for
a
daycare
type.
Three
at
a
church
access
17th
street
is
a
local
road.
Road
street
is
a

These

will
provide
adequate
free

Number
two
traffic
and

Access
into

out
of
the

in
question
will
provide
for
adequate

pedestrian
safety
and
emergency

access
adequacy
of

services
such
as

protection,
or
adequate
protection
for

effects.
B
A
S
That's
right:
that's
exactly
right:
matt,
stevens,
12,
32,
double
churches,
yeah,
I'm
the
pastor
of
the
fort
church
and
you're
right.
The
building
was
originally
built
to
be
a
daycare
and
was
a
thriving
daycare
in
that
community.
For
some
time
as
the
church
declined
and
the
neighborhood
changed,
the
daycare
was
shut
down.
My
understanding
is
that,
sometime
in
that
between
time,
when
we
got
there,
I
guess
the
zoning
change.
That's
why
we're
here,
for
this
special
exception,
our
desire
as
the
fort
church
we
partnered
with
eastern
heights
as
it
had
declined.
S
Our
our
mission
is
simply
stated,
revive
and
restore
we
want
to
wherever
we
go.
We
want
to
bring
that
place
to
a
better
place
than
it
was,
and
that's
true
for
the
community
there,
where
we
are
and
we've
had
great
success
there
at
as
we've
worked
on
the
facilities
renovated
facilities,
we've
poured
hundreds
of
thousand
dollars
of
and
volunteer
man
hours
into
it
and
we'll
continue-
and
this
is
the
next
step
in
us
revitalizing-
that
property
and
bringing
back
to
being
a
real
service
to
the
community.
S
A
T
My
name
is:
will
burgin?
I
live
at
2120
country
club
road.
My
office
is
at
1313
road
street,
which
is
on
the
other
side
of
the
block
from
the
church.
I
just
was
coming
to
speak
in
favor
of
it.
I
love
to
see
the
additional
activity
going
on
in
that
building.
I
love
to
see
what
the
church
has
done
for
our
area
and
I
want
to
encourage
them
to
keep
it
up,
and
if
this
is
a
part
of
their
plan,
then
I
want
to
be
on
the
record
supporting
that.
Well,.
A
Thank
you
very
much
all
right
questions.
Commissioners.
Thank
you,
mr
bergen.
Does
anyone
else
like
to
come
speak
for
this
case?
Come
up
come
forward
at
this
time?
Does
anyone
in
the
audience
like
to
speak
against
this
case?
Please
come
forward
at
this
time
and
please
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record.
U
U
Okay,
our
tenants
are
older.
We
have
some
some
army
vets
that
are
in
those
little
apartments
that
you
know
have
post-traumatic
stress
syndrome,
and
I
just
I'm
concerned
about
the
noise,
the
traffic,
the
foot
traffic,
the
the
noise
from
the
the
playground,
even
though
I
applaud
the
church
and
what
they're
doing
in
that
neighborhood
is
wonderful.
A
U
B
G
For
clarification,
they
will
not
be
able
to
use
roads
for
stacking
for
pickup
or
drop
off
or
anything
because
it
is
a
local
street
and
that
is
technically
a
commercial
use.
17Th
is
a
collector,
so
everything
will
need
to
come
off
of
17th
and
possibly
14th,
because
14th
is
more
or
less
a
collector
between
13th
street
and
17th.
G
A
A
A
S
Everything
that
we
do,
we
hope,
improves
the
property
and
improves
the
neighborhood,
and
so
we
don't
know
exactly
what
type
of
fencing
right
now
we've.
That's
still
in
the
plans.
We
thought
it
was
going
to
be
a
privacy
fence,
the
price
of
wood.
It's
changing
things,
but
we'll
we'll
we'll
see,
but
you
know
our
goal,
and
hopefully
our
neighbors
have
seen
that
since
we've
been,
there
has
just
been
to
improve
the
property,
improve
the
neighborhood
even
trying
to
improve
properties
around
ours
that
you
know,
so
we
want
to
be
very
good
neighbors.
A
N
A
All
right,
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor.
Do
we
have
a
second
and
we
have
a
second
all,
those
in
favor
to
approve
this
special
exception,
raise
your
right
hand
and
it's
unanimous.
Thank
you
very
much
all
right
our
well.
I
think
I
have
put
my
agenda
over
here.
All
right
last
special
exception
here
for
the
day
is
excp042.
A
A
request
for
special
exception
use
at
375.
Far
road
current
zoning
is
gc
general
commercial.
The
proposed
use
is
church,
greater
than
250
seats.
Mount
pilgrim
baptist
church
is
the
applicant.
This
property
is
located
in
council
district
3,
mr
huff
and
we'll
hear
from
the
planning
department.
First,
on
this
special
exception
and.
B
Sir,
this
is
a
request
for
a
church
to
have
greater
than
250
seats.
Number
one
access
bar
drive
is
a
local
road.
Far
road
is
a
local
road.
These
roads
will
provide
adequate
free
flow
movement,
traffic
and
pedestrian
safety.
Access
into
and
out
of
the
property
in
question
will
provide
for
adequate
traffic
and
pedestrian
safety
and
emergency
access
adequacy
of
public
facilities.
Services
such
as
water
utilities,
police
and
fire
are
adequate
protection
from
adverse
effects.
The
property
is
surrounded
by
general
commercial
rmf
ii,
residential
multifamily
ii.
B
B
Number
six
is
compatibility,
the
structure,
height
site
and
location
should
match
the
uses
found
in
other
general,
commercial,
residential,
multi-family,
two
properties,
council
district,
three
huff,
30
property
owners
within
300
feet
of
the
property
have
been
notified
by
mail
of
the
proposed
special
exception
use.
The
planning
department
did
receive
one
phone
call
and,
regarding
this
rezoning
I
wasn't
in
opposition
or
approval
is
more
of
an
inquiry.
B
A
A
V
V
It
was
determined
that
the
current
zoning
will
only
allow
a
church
that
seats,
250
people
or
less,
and
so
we're
asking
for
that
special
exception
that
we
are
able
to
build
the
church
that
will
see
over
the
250
people,
and
so
it's
currently
zoned
as
general
commercial.
We're
asking
that
it'd
be
zoned
church
with
over
250
people.
A
E
Pastor
you're
right
there
on
the
corner
right
of
far
roads
and
where
that
turn
in
it.
I
know
it
used
to
be
a
kind
of
a
bad
area
for
accidents.
Would
there
be
a
red
light
or
something
there
to
kind
of
help
out
with
the
traffic,
because
I
know
I
think
one
person
did
either
get
killed
or
get
hurt,
making
the
left
turn
going
into
that
area,
and
I'm
just
wondering
you
know,
because
I
know
your
staff
and
your
church
member's
going
to
be
alive
and
I'm
just
concerned
about
the
traffic
going.
M
Bruce
council
district
3
p.o
box,
1340
columbus,
georgia
31902.
This
has
been
a
project
ongoing
now
for
about
five
years
there
will
be
a
traffic.
Let
me
first
address
your
question.
There
will
be
talks
and
plans
to
put
a
traffic
light
there
to
get
people
in
and
out.
That
is
right
now
no
left
turn
and
it
will
be
nothing
but
t-bone
accidents
for
people
to
try
to
make
that
turn
to
get
in
there.
M
M
Pastor
stallion
came
in
in
2015,
we've
been
working
with
pastor
stallion
and
his
board
the
deacons
and
everyone,
and
this
has
been
a
real
good
relationship.
All
businesses
in
the
area
will
not
be
affected
at
all.
Everybody
will
be
grandfathered
in.
If
there's,
I
think,
there's
f
and
w
control
tower
and
other
businesses
in
the
area.
No
one
would
be
affected.
No
new
ones
will
be
able
to
come
in
under
the
zoning,
but
the
reason
they're
here
this
morning
is
mount
pilgrim
right
now:
seats
around
500
people,
500
600
people.
M
So
in
negotiating
this
out
with
mount
pilgrim
and
the
georgia
department
of
transportation,
our
planning
department
and
city
manager
and
everyone,
we
discovered
after
the
fact
that
we
had
agreed
on
everything
that
they
were
limited
to
less
than
250,
which
is
less
than
what
they
have
now.
They
are
very
good
stewards
in
the
community.
M
It
allows
the
members
to
only
have
to
drive
now,
maybe
an
additional
two
minutes
from
where
they're
used
to
arriving
on
sundays
and
all
during
the
week.
They
do
a
lot
of
work
in
the
community
as
far
as
feeding
the
hungry
and
other
activities
with
the
kids
and
everyone.
So
I
just
ask
that
you
approve
this
going
forward
and
to
understand
that
for
the
betterment
of
columbus
georgia,
this
has
been
ongoing
for
quite
a
few
years.
M
There's
a
new
football
stadium
being
built
with
the
school
district
now
is
about
two
minutes
from
the
exit.
So
it's
going
to
allow
economic
development
and
should
be
ease
of
use
in
the
community.
We
hadn't
had
any
complaints,
and
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
I
saw
my
friend
mr
washington
here
this
morning
to
let
him
know
it
won't
affect
his
club
and
business
at
all
going
forward,
because
I've
frequented
that
over
the
years
from
the
time
I
was
21
or
so
years
old
and
been
to
weddings
and
other
activities
there.
M
So
so
far
it's
been
it's
been.
It's
been
a
good
run,
pastor
stallion
and
his
group
has
been
very
easy
to
work
with
and
they
had
the
opportunity,
probably
within
a
couple
of
months
ago,
that
d.o.t
gave
them
the
option
to
stay
where
they
are.
If
they
were
not
happy
and
they
chose
to
move
forward
with
this
for
the
betterment
of
the
city,
so
I
ask
that
you
approve
this
this
morning,.
A
M
M
A
W
W
Richards
and
I'm
the
community
manager
of
far
field
manor
senior
apartments
located
at
419,
far
road,
and
we
will
actually
be
the
neighbors
of
the
church.
The
church,
like
he
said,
has
been
in
the
area
100
years
I
was
raised
here
in
columbus,
I'm
very
familiar
with
this
church
being
at
farfield
manor
for
the
net
for
the
last
14
years.
W
W
But
when
you've
had
something,
that's
hit
them.
That's
like
the
past
12
months,
the
isolation
can
kill
and
having
a
neighbor
like.
That
is
what
we
need
and
the
ability
for
them
to
be
able
to
walk
up
the
hill
versus
walk
down.
You
know,
half
a
mile
to
where
they
are
now
is
nothing
but
a
benefit
to
us
and
a
blessing.
W
So
we
need
when,
when
this
is
done,
we
need
your
help
with
either
getting
a
crosswalk
or
additional
sidewalks
or
a
caution,
light
or
a
stoplight,
something
that
will
make
it
safe
for
not
only
our
seniors
but
the
children
that
walk
up
and
down
that
street.
The
young
people
that
walk
up
and
down
that
street.
W
So
again
I
encourage
it.
I
welcome
it.
I
can't
wait
to
work
with
them
and
our
seniors,
but
as
as
columbus
and
and
as
what
y'all
do.
I
really
need
y'all
to
take
a
look
at
the
traffic.
I
need
you
to
look
at
the
safety
concerns
when
you've
got
people
trying
to
cross
a
road
in
a
walker
in
a
motorized
chair
with
a
cane
and
you've,
got
people
literally
doing
50
miles
an
hour
down
a
hill
or
coming
around
a
corner.
That's
all
I
ask
is
for
y'all
to
consider
that
and
we
welcome
the
church.
W
A
W
G
Regarding
far
road,
as
you
can
imagine,
as
I'm
sure,
all
of
y'all
have
been
down
far
road
far
road
is
pretty
much
where
an
interchange
will
be.
It
will
be
greatly
altered
when
this
project
is
done
and
I'm
sure
we
will
look
at
the
full
length
of
forest
road
as
it
goes
up
towards
st
mary's,
but
it
will
be
significantly
altered
and
if
I'm
not
mistaken,.
G
A
B
That
that,
like,
like
counselor
huff,
said
that
property
will
be
grandfathered
in
moving
forward
for
any
type
of
distance
requirements
that
may
or
may
not
be
imposed
on
it.
So
if
you
sell
that
property
to
someone-
and
you
still
hold
that
business
license,
you
can
sell
that
directly
to
them
and
they
can
continue
to
use
use
that
property
as
its
current
use.
Moving
forward.
A
R
Excp04210766,
a
request
for
a
special
exception
to
use
375
for
road
current
zone
is
gc
general
commercial.
The
proposed
use
is
a
church
greater
than
250
seats.
My
peregrine
baptist
church
is
the
applicant.
The
property
is
located
in
city
council
bruce
self.
I
propose
that
we
approve
this
measure
all.
A
It
would
be
500
just
as
in
the
current
church,
all
right,
we
do
have
a
motion
and
we
have
one
question,
but
it's
answered
all
those
in
favor.
Please
raise
your
right
hand
and
it's
unanimous.
Thank
you
very
much
all
right.
Well,
thank
you
for
your
attention
today.
This
concludes
our
cases.
For
this
date
it
looks
like
we
have
some
cases
on
the
17th.
