Mr. Medders explained that they are taking land off one lot and adding to another to get a
two to one ratio to get a fifty-foot right-of-way into what is now 5.82 acres. They are

adding six hundredths of an acre to this. They are combining two lots. They are moving
lot lines and they are going to have three lots.

Parcel 021.00, 022.00, 023.00, 026.00 and 027.00 on the Tennessee Real Estate Property
Assessment Data Website. The 3.61-acre plat is reconfiguring five (5) lots into three (3)
and is located on Velma Road and County Road 174, the portion of the plat located inside

the city is zoned R-2 Medium Density Residential.

MOTION PASSED

. Recommendation on rezoning request by Mark Lockmiller to change parcel
identified as Tax Map 057H Group C Parcel 042.00 located on Short Street from I-1
light Industrial District to R-2 Medium Density Residential District containing

approximately 1.82 acres.

Mr. Casteel said this is an almost 2-acre industrial lot. It does not meet the minimum lot
size for an industrial lot. He said he believes it has been that way since they have had
zoning. He showed them the Rails for Trails and said it had been abandoned and there
was no railroad right-of-way right there. He assumes it will eventually become a part of
the Eureka Trail or an extension to downtown. He said he knows there are plans to run
that down to Market Park somewhere in the Parks and Rec future. He said to him it tends
more towards residential development because it is a transitional area. The land use map
does show it as office and light commercial. He recommended approval of the request.

MOTION: To recommend to city council for the R-2 rezoning.
