COMMENTS/QUESTIONS Ms. Smith would like to open a resale store in Paul's Chapel Missionary Baptist Church Annex. The church will lease the building to Ms. Smith. If Ms. Smith closes her business, the building will revert back to being the church annex. The gravel parking lot is currently covered by grass and weeds due to disuse. The vegetation will be cleared in order for the business to provide adequate off-street parking. The annex is in a sparsely populated, low traffic area near a flood plain, so the business will not cause a disturbance. MOTION/VOTE Matt Lee made a motion to approve the request, seconded by Jerry Ross. The request was unanimously approved. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 5:41 pm.
