single story units would have a total of 928 square feet. The single story

residents of the complex would be single women over 55 years of age.
The site will be landscaped and fenced, a gated community. Mr. Chamy
presented pictures of similar projects in other cities that he had
constructed. He had letters of recommendations from Mayors in those
cities.
Benny Plata, 850 19th SW, spoke in favor of the petition stating that he
thought the project would be good for West Paris.
Debra Thompson, 520 13th SW, opposed the petition, she wanted to
know if the property was zoned, could it be used for something else.
Chairman Hayter stated that once the property is zoned Planned
Development, a site plan must be approved before anything could be
built.
Ms. Thompson said she was opposed to this zoning because of the
meanness that usually follows Multi-Family apartments.
Carl Puckett, 520 19th SW, opposed the Multi-Family zoning because of
not having any say over anything that might happen to the land.
Mr. Methven told Mr. Puckett that if the land was rezoned, a site plan
would have to be approved which would be a public hearing.
Ms. Jack Thompson, 524 13th SW, opposed the zoning change stating
that people in projects walk around in the surrounding neighborhoods,
knocking on doors.
Shirley Bridgers, 2015 Old Bonham Road, opposed the petition fearing
that Mr. Chamy will not get the grant and the neighborhood might end
up with something else.
