MINUTES OF THE MOORESVILLE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS The Mooresville Board of Zoning Appeals met at its regularly scheduled meeting on Wednesday, the 16th day of July, 1986 at Mooresvil]e Town Hall. Preaent were Board Members Steve Oschman= Warren Franklin, Tilford Bailey, and Donald Barry. Standing in for Board Attorney, Timothy C. Currens, was Attorney Michael A. Ksenak. The meeting was called to order by Chairman Steve Oschman who determined there was a quorum present. The Board then proceeded to approve the minutes of the prior meeting. The first item of bus,ness was the petition of James M Fiscus and Franc~s Fiscals t~ operate s day care center at 310 S. Clay Street in Mooresvi]le. Representing the F~sc,ses was Attorney Dave Lawso,. Attorney Lawson advised that the Fiscuses had been operating ~ day care center w~thout proper permits in Marleywood. There they had 10 children being cared for and the petitioners at that time were not aware of the ordinance requirements. The Fiscuses needed to expand and then moved to 310 S. Clay Street where they have made significant improvements to the property. It was at that time that they learned of the ordinance requirements and they immediately filed the pending petition. Attorney Lawson advised that he did not feel this request would substantially affect the Master Plan in that there were other businesses in the area such as Newcomer Lumber, the rooming house, a beauty salon, and several rental properties. He indicated that this shows that there has already been a change in the area. Mr. Lawson also advised that in his opinion it would not be in the best interest of the area to rezone the property but felt merely that a variance would be sufficient. Francis Fiscus had talked to the neighbors and received no objection to the proposal. Attorney Lawson provided the Board pictures of the home. ~ indicated
