for a riding stable on 60 acres of his property located East of Crossover Road
and North of Stone Bridge Road.
Planning Administrator Bobbie Jones said City Engineer Paul Mattke felt that
public water and restroom facilities should be required.
Mr. Jacks stated he did not know if there was anything in their regulations that
would require this.
Mrs. Edmiston felt this would be between Mr. Rushing and the County Sanitarian.
Planning Administrator Bobbie Jones stated she had not checked Mr. Rushing's
proposal against the new ordinance pertaining to "riding stables". She also pointed
out that Mr. Rushing had stated at Plat Review Committee meeting that he was not
proposing a "riding stable" at this time.
After further discussion, Helen Edmiston and Ernest Jacks felt this could be
approved as a large scale development contingent to Bill Parette's (County Sanitarian)
approval and upon Bobbie Jones checking Mr. Rushing's plans against the ordinance.

Mr. Rushing's plans and found that more parking spaces needed to be shown.
The next item was the Lot Split of Ken Lazenby for property on the KEN LAZENBY
East side of East Farmer's Road. (The proposed split would create Lot Split
5 lots; the Planning Office is authorized to approve only 3 splits which would
create no more than 4 lots.)
Mr. Jacks pointed out there was 10 foot requirement for a gas easement on the
South side of the South bt and an additional 5 feet of right-of-way is needed
on East Farmers Avenue for the Major Street Plan.
Planning Administrator Bobbie Jones said Clayton Powell (Street Superintendent) was
requesting that Mr. Lazenby be required to pave, curb and gutter the street and
provide street lights and dedicate 10 feet of right-of-way.
Mrs. Edmiston felt that the Planning Commission could not require the improvement
when the road was already in use.
Planning Administrator Bobbie Jones said City Engineer Paul Mattke requires the
developer or the owner to pay for the water taps.
Mr. Jacks felt this was an engineering problem and not anything for the Planning
Commission's consideration.
After further discussion, the Subdivision Committee was ready to recommend the
approval of the lot split of Mr. Lazenby with the provision of the 10 foot gas
easement and the 5 foot of additional right-of-way for East Farmers Avenue be provided.
