Polly Dwyer indicated she was not concerned about the mini-storage going in that

Shelley Ruland asked if it would be possible for them to get a specific use permit
accommodate the mini storage buildings.
City Manager indicated changing the zoning is the only thing they could do.
Discussion regarding 1-1 zoning.
Discussed the creek running through the property, and the problems with it being
developed as something else.
City Manager indicated there had been inquiries regarding a hotel possibly being
built on the property North of Golston's.
Discussion.
Mr. Schafer indicated he has owned the property for over twenty years and has
been holding the property in hopes that Sanger would eventually grow and there
would be more need for this type property. It would serve him best to have it
changed to I-1.
Polly Dwyer indicated she would rather have Business zoning on the service road,
and felt there was already enough metal buildings and warehouses along 1-3S.
Ginger Burt indicated she agreed with Polly and would like it to remain B-2 as well.
