It's back to
the drawing board for a developer building a new commercial development
in Senoia.
David Lindsay
is well underway in creating the city's newest commercial area on Ga.
Highway 16. But Monday night, Lindsay appeared before the City Council
and asked for more parking places for the center.
When the center
was originally discussed, the city's Planning Commission eliminated many
parking spaces in front of the center.
The City Council
agreed with the Planning Commission and approved the final plat.
Now, Lindsay
wants many of those spaces back, and asked the City Council Monday night
to reinstate them.
"Many
of the possible tenants are asking about the spaces," he said.
City Councilman
Bill Wood said he had a problem with the procedure involved, and thought
Lindsay should have made his request to the Planning Commission.
But City Administrator
Murray McAfee said since Lindsay was appealing a zoning decision, he believed
the appeal was to the City Council.
City attorney
Drew Whalen, though, agreed with Wood.
"Since
he didn't do his appeal within the 60 days, it reverts back to the Planning
Commission," he said.
Lindsay is
expected to bring his request to the Planning Commission May 21. It could
be back on the council's agenda June 3.
