Applicant withdraws truck-stop zoning request after public hearing is opened; nearby resident objects to prior proposal
Summary
An applicant withdrew a zoning-map amendment and CUP for a proposed truck stop at 1825 Old Brock Road; resident Scott Honeycutt urged the council to oppose the plan, saying the proposed site would sit about 100 yards from nearby duplexes and produce disruptive lights and activity.
Council opened the public hearing for a proposed zoning map amendment and conditional-use permit for a truck stop at 1825 Old Brock Road but staff said the applicant asked that the item be withdrawn and no action was taken.
Scott Honeycutt, a nearby property owner, addressed the council during the public-comment period to oppose the proposal. Honeycutt said his duplexes sit roughly 100 yards from the proposed change and that a truck stop in that location would subject residents to continuous lighting and disturbance at close range. The mayor and staff told Honeycutt the application had been withdrawn and encouraged him to follow up with planning staff for details and future updates.
Staff noted the item was withdrawn by the applicant and that the council would not act on it that evening. The record shows the council opened and closed the public hearing as required and explained that, because the applicant withdrew the request, there was no decision to be made.
