Murphy Oil USA requested and the commission accepted withdrawal without prejudice of two companion applications for a convenience store with fuel pumps and for an alcohol outlet limited to beer and wine at 5922 Memorial Drive. Planner Lucas Carter told the board staff supported the withdrawal request.
Neighbors who attended urged demolition or clean‑up of an adjacent fire‑damaged building at the site; Commissioner Terry said staff would coordinate with county code and legal offices about property cleanup and public safety.
Because the withdrawal was without prejudice, the company may resubmit applications in the future. Staff said the company told the county it is still considering redevelopment options for the parcel and wants time to examine site viability.
