The Alexander Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on a zoning request made by the owner of My Ample Storage. The request asks to rezone approximately 1.73 acres of land from Open Space/Recreational (OS/R) to Highway Commercial. My Ample Storage is located along Highway 5 west of North Alexander Road. The property was annexed into the city in 2018.
Engineer Jacob White, of Bond Consulting Engineers, Inc. in Jacksonville, Arkansas was present at the public hearing representing My Ample Storage owner Terry Bean. No one from the general public attended the hearing to oppose or support the zoning change.
The public hearing was held Tuesday, August 10. The Planning Commission’s regular August meeting was to be held following the public hearing. However, due to the lack of a quorum the regular meeting was canceled.
Without a quorum the planning commission couldn’t vote on a recommendation to the city council concerning the zoning request. Commission Chairman Michael Huck said he will either have to schedule a special meeting, or wait until the regular October meeting.
Huck said he had a zoning ordinance, already approved by the city attorney, added to the city council’s agenda for next week’s meeting (Monday, August 16). That will now have to be put on hold until the planning commission can vote on a recommendation.
