S EP 5 1984 Boox 58 . j%U138 discussed; their concern is that they have owned this property for about 20 years and on the property that is being excluded and will remain commercial there is a convenience store and a gas station operation. On their adjoining property is another building which is being included in the rezoning to residential. This building was used over the years for storage, although it is not being used now. In addition, there are tanks underground between the properties, and these were put in in 1974 when the gas station operation came into being. The county at that time approved a site plan that included 1.9 acres rather than the .8 acre that is being excluded. What the Holmes are requesting is that the County allow their 1.79 acres to remain commercial, which is the original area they had for their commercial operation. Commissioner Bird felt what was shown as excluded was more than .8 acres, and Attorney Block believed that what was shown was not drawn to scale. Chief Planner Shearer explained that the Holmes have three parcels of land, which together would represent about 2 acres. One of the parcels has the existing commercial structure on it; they have an additional parcel to the east of the commercial building, which parcel is split down the middle by the zoning district and is half R-1 and half C-1; and they have about .5 of an acre to the south of the commercial building that is'zoned C-1. They would like all these parcels to be excluded. The Chairman asked why staff is opposed to excluding that property. Chief Planner Shearer explained that they just left out that parcel that had the commercial building on it. Since the other two parcels weren't being used for anything, staff felt they should be rezoned in conformance with the Land Use Plan. 32 M
