MOORESVILLE PLAN COMMISSION MINUTES THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14,2002,6:30 P. M. The Mooresville Plan Commission met on Thursday, November 14,2002, at 6:30 P. M. at the Mooresville Town Hall. The meeting date had been changed to November 14, 2002 after the Board of Zoning Appeals due to Thanksgiving. Plan commission members present were: Chairman Mike Young, Chris Crouch, Jim Bruner, Andy Pygman, Charles McGuire, Robert Williamson, and John Ehrhart. Robert Corbin came in late and Tim Bennett was absent. Town attorney Tim Currens was present. Motion was made by Commissioner Pygman, second by Commissioner Bruner to accept the minutes of October 24, 2002. Motion carried 7-0. First on the agenda was Larry Cramer with Lewis Engineering representing Larry Long for property at 32 East High Street. Mr. Long wishes to use the house currently on the property for a business and needs to rezone to a B-1 and he wishes to minor plat the lot into two lots. The front lot with the house for a business and the back lot for a two bedroom brick double. The Board of Zoning Appeals granted a variance for lot size for a business at the previous meeting. The double would have 900 square feet on each side. The lot size at present is 207 feet deep and 80 Y, feet wide. Mr. Long thinks the business would probably be 1300 to 1400 square feet and he is not sure of the number of employees. Commissioner Young told Mr. Cramer he thought they were going to be lacking on parking. Motion was made by Commissioner Ehrhart, second by Commissioner Pygman to table the Minor Plat and Rezone to the December 12, 2002 meeting. Motion carried 7-0. Ross Holloway of Holloway and Associates appeared before the commission representing the Eagles Lodge for a replat of Lots 17 & 18 at 451 Old State Road 67. Lot 17 has an existing building and the Lodge wants to sell that building. The Eagles Lodge was built on Lot 17 & 18 both. Lot 17 is slightly over I Y, acres and Lot 18 is I Y2 acres. Motion was made by Commissioner McGuire, second by Commissioner Ehrhart to approve the replat. Motion carried 7-0. Next, Ross Holloway presented a rezone with a special exception for a lot on St. Rd. 67 and Highway 144 for Herb Haggard and Jim Remster. Mr. Holloway said tonight was purely a rezone from B-2 to B-3 with a restriction for auto sales only. Mr. Holloway told the commission the lot was very difficult due to it being long and narrow with most of the lot being only 80 feet from the highway right of way. He told the commission the access was limited on 67 and 144. The only access would be off of Highway 67 where there is a short access road owned by the State of Indiana. If you turn off of 67 you go to the right to the homes and left to the short access road. Commissioner Young asked if the State Highway Department would allow this as an access road for a business use. Mr.
