Developer is unhappy with parking arrangement

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.
