(COMMERCIAL CENTERS) ZONING ON THIS LOT IN THE 3800 BLOCK OF S.W LOOP 286. MS. GATES HAD A PETITION LAST MONTH ON THIS SAME PIECE OF PROPERTY TO CHANGE TO COMMERCIAL BUT WAS. DENIED BY BOTH CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING AND ZONING. MS. GATES PLANS TO LOCATE A TRUCK STOP AT THIS LOCATION THE SAME AS LAST MONTH. SHE IS ASKING FOR THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT IN HOPES THAT THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOOD WILL BE HAPPY THAT A SITE PLAN WOULD BE REQUIRED PRIOR TO OBTAINING A BUILDING PERMIT. CONSIDERATION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THE FACT THAT SHE MIGHT MOVE THE TRUCK STOP TO THE SOUTHERN MOST PROPERTY LINE MOVING HER FARTHER AWAY FROM THE RESIDENTIAL AREAS. THIS PROPERTY IS SHOWN ON THE MASTER PLAN AS PROJECTED TO BE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. THE USE OF A TRUCK STOP IN PLANNED DEVELOPMENT IS PERMITTED. I KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE MUCH CONTROVERSY OF THE USE BUT BECAUSE OF THE MASTER PLAN I FEEL THAT WE MUST MOVE TO HELP DEVELOPMENT IN WEST PARIS GET S.IARIED. IT WILL BE DIEEICULT TO EVER GET ANYTHING TO BUILD IN WEST PARIS UNLESS wE START SOMEWHERE. WITH THE NEW INDUSTRIAL PARK GETTING STARTED ON THE N.W. LOOP I FEEL THE TRUCK STOP WOULD BENEFIT THIS VENTURE GREATLY AND I WOULD RECOMMEND APPROVAL. I' ' . . '0 .. \ ~/ , ~ sf ~ A A ZONING CHANGE REQU~ST 3800 S.W.
