Mayor Fendley called for a motion. Councilman Weekly made a motion to adopt the ordinance. Councilman Guest asked what the difference was between the last consideration and this one. City Manager Malone stated that it was neighborhood opposition. Councilman Guest also asked how these both fell within the Master Plan of the city. Steve Methven, Chief Building Official of the City of Paris, explained that a Neighborhood Service District was a use in a residential district for a personal service like a beauty or barber shop and things of that nature. Methven stated that the Master Plan provided for that and the property would keep that zoning unless it was changed back by proper notice and petition. Methven also stated that the first petition was in a completely residential area and the neighborhood for this petition already has a restaurant, a couple of beauty shops, and is zoned commercial toward the end of the street. Mayor Fendley asked if there was a second to Councilman Weekly’s motion to accept Planning and Zoning’s recommendation and adopt the ordinance.
