City Council Meeting March 7, 2002 Page 5 Mayor Pfiester called for proponents to appear and Roddy McCarrell, 4030 Sunset View, came forward, stating he owned approximately six (6) acres at this location, which is zoned Agricultural at the present time. McCarrell stated he plans to build a building for meetings and family gatherings there. He is owner of Paris Pump Services, which corners this location. The planned building will back up to the land the pump service is on, so there is nothing around the proposed location for the building. The building would be used by the public for such things as benefits, birthday parties, and private gatherings. Mayor Pfiester closed the public meeting when no one appeared in opposition of the proposed zoning change. City Manager Malone presented the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission for approval of the request, subject to amendment of the Master Plan. Steve Methven, Chief Building Official, came forward, telling the Council they would have to amend the Master Plan because the property is sitting in a moderate density family residential area. He pointed out on the map several businesses in the area and stated that in all probability there would never be a housing development in the area. He recommended that the Master Plan be changed to Commercial District, in concurrence with the Planning and Zoning Commission.
