'd'homas, Co-Trustee; 6096 Wild Oak Drive Representative: 7ohn Thomas Ms. Wenger said the proposal is to consolidate PP# 235-01-012 and PP# 235-01-013 into one parcel. The consolidation conforms to lot dimension requirements and is zoned General Retail business. The City Engineer submitted a report for the record. Mr. Thomas said the family trust would like to consolidate the two parcels into one. Councilman Orlowski indicated he had no objections to the lot consolidation. Ms. Mantle raised the issue of zoning. She said the owner proposed a car wash in the 1980's and the Planning Commission at the time said the lots were split zoned commercial and residential therefore a car wash could not be built. Ms. Meredith said the applicant did not have a proposed development plan. Ms. Wenger said a development plan is not a requirement for a lot consolidation. A brief discussion pertaining to the zoning of the lots ensued. Ms. Mantle said she was against the lot consolidation and believed that the zoning was more residential then commercial. Mr. Mahoney said that the Law or Planning Directors could look into the zoning of the lots however the property owner has a right to consolidate his lots. If there is a development plan submitted then notice will be given and the residents would be given the opportunity to address the development. Mr. Thomas said their family is trying to put things in order as the lots are part of a trust. He has no development plans for the lots and they will remain vacant.
