Developers

of a proposed car wash/auto repair shop in

Fayetteville.have withdrawn their request for a

special exception to allow the facility.

CarSpa

Inc. backed out of its request for a special

exception to allow its combination car wash,

convenience store and auto repair shop in Fayette

Promenade, a commercial development across from

the rear entrance to Home Depot on Hwy. 85. The

Planning Commission last week voted to accept the

withdrawal.

In

earlier work sessions, commission members had

said they were unlikely to approve the proposal.

"This is the least desirable business we

could put in this area," said commission

member Myron Coxe.

Commissioners

also accepted withdrawal of an annexation and

rezoning request for a medical office building

near Fayette Community Hospital.

Larry

and Donna Mayfield withdrew their request for

annexation and office zoning of their 4.9-acre

tract on Ga. Highway 54 just west of the

hospital. City officials said Dr. Gerald

Goldklang, who wants to buy the property , has

decided to work with Fayette County rather than

wait for the city to approve a new zoning

category for the hospital area.

In

other action, the commission:

-

Approved

development plans for Autumn Glen, phase two, on

Ga. Highway 54 east. Although the subdivision is

approved for duplexes on its interior lots,

developer Bob Rolader told commissioners that

duplexes don't sell well, and he has reduced the

development plan by 10 lots, from 62 to 52, in

order to make all the homes single family.

-

Approved

development plans for the remaining lots in Burch

Office Park at Hwy. 54 and Burch Road. Previous

development plans in the office park have been

presented one at a time, but developer Bob

Rolader said he decided to present the remaining

one all together so that buyers will know how the

neighboring buildings will be laid out.

-

Approved an

exception to the rules, allowing a house in

OakBrook subdivision closer to the rear property

line than the law allows. Cal McShan, a spokesman

for Hayes Development Corp., said builders poured

the foundation and framed the house too close to

the line by mistake, and the company stopped

construction and asked for the variance as soon

as the error was discovered. Last week, McShan

presented letters from neighbors saying the

variance is alright with them.

-

Approved

development plans for a recreation area in

Magnolia Ridge subdivision at Lester and Old

Norton roads. The plan calls for two tennis

courts, a pool and clubhouse.
