He <br /> ccr.fa: ed the pre:s',ent. Adam and Eve plant to a waste treatment plant, This <br /> • rezen ing in no way would better the community. He would be shocked to receive <br /> a catalog and sees no way it could better his family. <br /> Dan Eddlemen addressed the intent of the LC-1 and read the location <br /> criteria as stated in the Zoning Ordinance which indicates it serves a market • <br /> area population of the immediate area and generally would not serve commuters <br /> or persons outside the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed use of P & S <br /> Sporting Goods is not in keeping with the intent or the spirit of the local <br /> businesses in an ',LC-1 district. Their ads appear in national magazines. By <br /> approving this rezoning the County would be setting a precedent as a complying <br /> use in LC-1 district. He asked that the Planning Board and Board of • . <br /> Commissioners comply with the Zoning Ordinance. <br /> Jeanette Jones pointed out thatP & S Sporting Goods is an existing • <br /> business which is requesting a rezoning to expand that business. They do hire <br /> employees from this area, and the building is attractive and landscaped. <br /> There is not' at present a traffic problem and this rezoning would not have an <br /> impact. She spoke in support of the expansion which would bring in more <br /> revenue for the County and provide jobs. The issue is the rezoning not the <br /> morals or what they sell. <br /> Allen Coon pointed out that the sale of ponographic material for a profit <br /> is no better than prositution.
