Conflict of Interest/Ex parte Conversation: Chairperson Smith asked the Commissioners to
disclose any conflicts of interest or conversations held outside of this meeting relative to this
particular subject.
Commissioner Discussion:
Sally invited Bron Leatham to share. Bron Leatham apologized for rezoning the property in steps.
He shared that when it was purchased the intent was multifamily, but the market has changed
drastically, and he now has a lot of commercial interest. Jim stated he likes the idea of having
commercial here, considering the changes happening with the interchanges and the traffic patterns.
He thinks it is wise to put commercial next to the highway since it is easy to access and keeps
traffic out of neighborhoods in town. Sally agreed with Jim, adding that the commercial needs
spread out to provide relief to 2nd East. Todd agreed, mentioning that the new interchanges will
provide easy on and off access and will handle more traffic. Vince spoke in support of the
application, sharing that he doesn’t anticipate residential growth between the airport and here.
MOTION: Motion to recommend to City Council that the Comprehensive Plan be changed to
Commercial as requested because the location is good for commercial next to the highway
and away from 2nd East.
Action: Approve, Moved by Randall Kempton, Seconded by Vince Haley.
