The Board members reviewed that previously granted special exception for the
continguous property. It was noted that a parcel of property existed between the two
parcels, which do not have a granted special exception. Mr. Mays responded that the
originally approved special exception would be resubmitted for further consideration to
include the additional property.
The Board members reviewed and asked the applicant various questions from the
criteria worksheet. Morris Reid, Building Official, advised that the noise and vibrations
would be monitored by the Building department. The Board members voice concerns
regarding the dust that would be created by this use. Mr. Mays agreed that a sprinkler
system would be installed to alleviate this concern. The Board members held an ensuing
discussion regarding if the Board granted the special exception, should it be granted to
the property owner or run concurrently with the property.
Motion by Mr. McMillin, seconded by Mr. Farmer, to grant Special Exception Request
No. 00 -06 with the following conditions:
1. A sprinkler system shall be installed and maintained to alleviate dust.
2. The special exception is hereby granted to the present trustee, Dora Ann
Thompson and the first subsequent property owner. The special
exception shall not run concurrently with the land.
3. The Board members reviewed the criteria worksheet to establish the
factual basis in which the special exception is hereby granted.
