Mr. Wegan is the owner of the property. Mr. Wegan noted that he has owned the vacant lot for 4 - 5 years.

In Mr. Wegan's opinion the lot is to small for a commercial use. Mr. Wegan also expressed that by building a home on the lot it will help with the complaint: every year about the weeds on the vacant lot. Bob Knabe, 7089 Centerville Road, was present. Mr. Knabe noted he was present to listen and had no comments. Paul Montain, Trio Inn, 7082 Centerville Road, was not present but had come to City Hall to express that he is not opposed to the rezoning, but was concerned about the possible repercussions to his commercial business from the rezoning to a residential property. Some the possible conflicts could be the noise and parking. Commission member LaMotte asked if the proposed rezoning would have a negative effect on the tax base. Commission member Vermeulen asked as to what the size of the lot is. Mr. Wegan noted that the lot size is approximately 150 x 90.
