special exception approval and because none of these buildings are under the overflight zone. Commissioner Bowman felt that the Commission has been remiss in not delineating all of these areas surrounding the airport. She didn't feel there is a compatibility problem, but did feel there is a big problem with safety. She doesn't want to see it. Commissioner Wheeler felt the concerns of the FAA are subjective -to what we have in our ordinances. He felt the danger here is considerably less than the trip to the school by car. He has consistently supported the rights of residential centers, and feels that schools and churches are compatible with residential neighborhoods. Chairman Bird felt the site plan meets the two main criteria of compatibility and safety, and planned to vote against the Motion. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and failed by a vote of 2-3, Commissioners Bird, Wheeler and Eggert dissenting. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Wheeler, that the Board grant special exception use approval with the conditions set out under staff's recommendation. Under discussion, Commissioner Wheeler commented how difficult it is to make decisions in these situations, and Commissioner Scurlock interjected that is why he. feels we should have a zoning classification where they would be allowed. It seemed to him that a better approach would be to look at that and designate them as we do our commercial nodes and medical nodes. Chairman Bird noted that the churches and schools need to be where the people are, and he really didn't think it was that big of a problem because after one of these difficult decisions has been made and the project has been built, it has worked out and they have been compatible with the neighborhood. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion carried by a vote of 3-2, Commissioners Bowman and Scurlock dissenting. 43 a0GF.. F;,.'�E.' #
