Public hearing to consider and take action regarding the petition of Ramseur Baptist Church for a change in zoning from a One -Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF2) to a General Retail District (GR), in the City of Paris, Block 287, Lots PT of IB and PT of 5, located in the 3400 Block of Lamar Ave. Easton states Ramseur Baptist Church owns approximately 6.9 acres and they plan to sell a portion of the property with frontage along Lamar Avenue for retail use. A sliver of the lot is already zoned General Retail, however, a larger area is necessary to proceed with any new development project under retail zoning. Ramseur Baptist Church seeks this zoning change in order to allow for future development of the eastern portion of the property, potentially as a fast food establishment. The future land use plan recommends the site to be used for retail and this change is consistent with existing land uses in the area. City staff recommends approval of this zoning change. Three zoning input forms were received from neighboring property owners. One is in favor of the petition and two are in opposition. Concerns noted are water during heavy rain, more traffic, trash and noise could disrupt quiet neighborhood. Public hearing was declared open.
