Vice Chairman McDonald asked the Commission if there were any questions for Mr. Rozier.
Commissioner Simerly asked Mr. Rozier why General Retail would make the property in question more marketable than the current zoning district of Neighborhood Services.
Mr. Rozier informed the Commission that different uses allowed in General Retail like speciality grocery stores, furniture stores, etc could be developed without the requirement of a Specific Use Permit (SUP) as required in Neighborhood Services.
Commissioner Vaughn stated that with all the vacant General Retail zoning surrounding the property in question, she was uncertain why additional General Retatil zoning was necessary.

Vice Chairman McDonald stated that in 1997 the City rezoned the property in question to Neighborhood Services, then City Consultants recommended that general retail zoning be concentrated in nodes at major intersections. The City developed the Future Land Use Plan and decided to make nodes of general retail and left the property in question Neighborhood Services because it was close to general retail. He also informed the Commission that he was not sure a Planned Development for General Retail was best. Vice Chairman McDonald also stated that the General Retail section of the Zoning Ordinance should be reviewed for changes if necessary.
Commissioner Valentine said she believes whatever is developed on the property will definitely be general retail, but due to the size of the property the City should have more input on the development.
Commissioner Donald Dewberry stated that he agreed with Commissioner Valentine's statement.
Commissioner Valentine stated that she was not comfortable with the currrent General Retail Zoning and perhaps the Zoning Ordinance should be reviewed.
Vice Chairman McDonald asked the Commission if there were any other concerns or comments. There being no response, he asked the Commission for a motion.
