Discussion continued regarding Mrs. Eddy's unique situation, <br />and Mrs. Eddy pointed out that River Run has put their sewer <br />plant up next to her property. She noted that she was not so much <br />concerned about the RM -8 as having some commercial. <br />Commissioner Lyons asked if all three acres in the neighbor- <br />hood node are being used for commercial, and Director Keating <br />advised a site plan has just recently been obtained for it. <br />Discussion ensued at length re the size of neighborhood <br />nodes being reduced over the years, and the fact that Mrs. Eddy <br />never submitted a site plan and so couldn't be grandfathered in. <br />Commissioner Lyons felt the key is that everything depends <br />on timing.

Mr. Garbers noted that he was <br />told he could have his property rezoned to 3 units per acre, but <br />he did not feel the surrounding environment, with a trailer park <br />on one side of his property at 6 units per acre and Tippin's <br />13 <br />JAN 14 1986 BOOK 63 P,,GE 238 <br />
