The Tyrone Town Council will

have to mull over more than 20 recommendations if it wants to approve

a Publix shopping center for the town in May.

The recommendations were delivered

Commission.

The shopping center features

a 54,000-sq. ft. Publix grocery store, along with more than 20,000 square

feet of adjacent retail space on Ga. Highway 74 and Carriage Lane Road.

The site is part of the John

Wieland Planned Unit Development that city leaders fought in the late

'90s. The city took Wieland to court and lost, so the shopping center

will be built. Now, the question is how many restrictions the town can

place on it.

Developer Bill Candler said

he wants to develop a quality center that residents can use and be proud

it is in their town.

"This is not going to

be another Riverdale shopping center," he pledged.

Candler showed the commission

an artist's rendering of the site and said he would be glad to work with

the town on some of the details surrounding the project.

After Candler spoke, Amos said

he had several questions concerning the center including when it would

be developed.

Candler said he hoped to start

this summer and the project would take 13-14 months to complete.

Amos also disagreed with a

proposed curb cut on Hwy. 74 and questioned what kind of signage would

be on the property.

Other concerns he expressed

were hours of tractor trailers showing up at the stores, lack of building

elevations provided the town and too many parking spaces.

Amos said the center requires

350 spaces, but Candler shows 441 on the preliminary plan.

Candler said he had just received

Amos' concerns earlier that day and would deal with each of them.

Commission Chairman Lyn Redwood

said she wants the matter to come
