JUL 10 1985 BOOK 61 474 on this and he felt it had been resolved and the material removed, but he will check into this further. Vice Chairman Scurlock again emphasized that all we can consider today is the site plan specifications and criteria; we cannot address anything else. Mr. Fleckenstein then requested that the Board consider rezoning this property to a less obnoxious zoning than M-1. The zoning is the culprit and he felt the Board by allowing this expansion is condoning it. Commissioner Bowman expressed her sympathy but felt Mr. Fleckenstein is a victim of ancient history. When the M-1 zoning was set up it was unfortunate, but it did happen and'it is not set in concrete. Mr. Fleckenstein believed the Board has the power to rezone and change something a former Commission created. Vice Chairman Scurlock agreed the Board could rezone, but Mr. Hiers already has submitted a site plan under the existing zoning, and he did get his plan approved under the existing site plan criteria that has to be met. If the Board did move ahead and rezone this, then the Vice Chairman assumed it would become a non -conforming use, but that wouldn't help because the structure would go up and all the rezoning would do is put Mr. Hiers in a position where he couldn't rebuilt or expand. He believed Mr. Hiers now will have used the entire site so he is not going to be able to make another expansion in any event and this renders the whole thing moot. The Vice Chairman urged Mr. Fleckenstein to go to the Code Violation Enforcement Board. Mr. Hiers stated that he would invite the Commissioners to look at his property. He did not know he was that bad a neighbor, and he will go back and take another look at the place and clean it up if it is such an eyesore. Commissioner Wodtke brought up the problem of putting paved parking in a dedicated area. 62 I
