Mr. Balderson explains the location of the property in question and states that he has received one letter in opposition to this request. Mr, James Parkinson, representing J. K, Timmons, states that the Highway Department has approved the location of an access road for this building site, that the traffic will not be increased over what the traffic would be were apartments to be constructed, that to the west are townhouses, to the north is a railroad, land to the south is all zoned business including a tire store, that the property could not be used pru- dently as residential property and asks the Board to grant the rezoning which in his opinion would be the highest and best use of the land. Mr. Phillip Perdue, President of Kinsey, Perdue and McCall, states that in his professional opinion this is not residential property and is not salable zoned R-7. He states further that if an office building is constructed, it would not affect the surrounding property, would be harmonious with the area and would not affect traffic adversely, Mr. C. Porter Vaughan, Jr., a recognized expert on . real estate appraisals, states that the property would not be economically feasi~ 'ble to develop as residential property, that the existing residences on the west- end would not be adversely affected by an office building, and that tra.ffic would be reversed at peak hours. Mr, James Covington, developer of Briarwood Hearth Townhouses, speaks in favor o.f th6 zoning saying that it would be compatible with the general area. Mr~ William Cheatham, from the 01d Coach Village Subdivision and President of the Robious-Huguenot Civic Association, states that he represents approximately 5,000 families who oppose this zoning, that the zoning is premature since there is not an occupant in mind and that any extra traffic would burden an already over- loaded highway. Mrs. Gayle Bush speaks in opposition. Mr, Calvin Hancock from the Windsor Forest Subdivision states that a parcel of land at the intersection of Featherstone and Rt. 147 was turned down for office zoning and cites his fears of zoning this property in question because it may set a precedence~ Mrs. Marie McGuire from the River Oaks Subdivision states that stores are going out of business and feels the demand is not sufficient for an office of this nature. Mr. Parkinson in rebuttal states that stores may be going out of busi- ness but there still is a great demand for office space, that in answer to Mr. Cheatham an occupant could not be obtained since it has taken almost one year to have this zoning heard before the Board of Supervisors and an occupant could not wait that long. Mr. Calvin Hancock suggests that the property be left for the backyard~ of the citizens in Briarwood Hearth, Mr. Jack Sawyer raises the precedence setting question, Mr. Cheatham suggests that action be deferred until we get a study from the Highway Department con- cerning the relocation of Rt. 147 and until such time as a tenant is obtained to rent such a building. Mr. Parkinson states that the area is directly across from a business district, that expert witnesses, planning staff and planning commission have approved the zoning request, that no one would build a home on such a piece of property and asks the Board to zone this property for office use for the above reasons, Upon consideration of this matter, Mrs. Girone states that she is concerned with the public safety and the hazards of traffic would be enhanced by this office building, that we are waiting for an environmental impact statement from the Highway Department on the location of Rt. 147 and moves that this request be. denied. Mr, Myers seconds the motion, A vote being taken: Ayes: Mr. O'Neill, Mrs. Girone, Mr, Apperson and Mr. Myers. Abstention: Mr, Bookman states that he feels the safety of the people due to traffic would be enhanced by the development of an office use rather than by the construction of apartments which is the present zoning. 75S166 In Bermuda Magisterial District, Richmond Cold Storage Company, Inc. requests rezoning from Agricultural (A) to General Industrial (M-2) of a 171.6 acre par- cel fronting 1,865 ft. on West Hundred Road, also fronting 1,123 ft. on Seaboard Coastline Railroad, and being located in the northeast quadrant of the inter- section of the aforementioned roads, and being bounded on the north line by the James River.
