The Phi Mu

sorority will be moving its national headquarters to

Peachtree City sometime in the near future.

Rezoning

for a five-acre site in Westpark has been approved by the

City Council, giving Phi Mu the go-ahead to build an

18,000-sq. ft. facility that will include six guest rooms

for sorority representatives who come in periodically for

meetings.

Several

conditions were put forth by the Planning Commission last

month with regard to the guest rooms. Also, a clause was

included that would reverse the zoning should Phi Mu ever

vacate the premises.

City

development director Jim Williams called the sorority's

application "a good fit," and a perfect fit for

the site. He added that it was "refreshing" to

see an organization put a single building on five acres,

considering the ever-increasing tendency to have parking

lots and buildings almost back up to each other on

commercial lots throughout the city.

No one

spoke in opposition to the request. Councilman Annie

McMenamin noted that the request would have practically

no negative impact on the city, and she moved to approve

it. The rezoning was unanimously approved.

In other

business, the council voted to approve Chun-Sen Chen's

application for a beer and wine license for Formosa Deli,

as well as a request by Richard Bearden for a transfer of

the alcohol license for the Mini Mart on Ga. Highway 54

West. Both votes were unanimous.
