Mr. Holloway responded by outlining the facility’s hours of operation. Commissioner Harvey pointed out that the site plan does not show a sidewalk connecting the proposed parking lot to the building on the adjacent property. Mr. Holloway provided further information about the proposed parking lot and its intended use for the adjacent property.

Commissioner Carter inquired about lighting and security for the parking lot. Commissioner Brinker asked what hours the parking lot would be illuminated. Commissioner Carter also asked whether the parking lot could be gated.

The parking lot would be illuminated from dusk to dawn and open 24 hours a day. Chairman Alexander opened the public hearing. With no members of the public present to speak, the hearing was closed.
