Mr. Don Howard appeared in opposition to the request and stated that there are enough junk cars
on the south side of the city and does not want another one. He requested the Council to deny the
request. He stated there is a risk that the junk will be outside of the fence and the fence will not be
maintained correctly. He thanked the City Council for cleaning up Fort D.
Mr. Neumeyer questioned how this special use permit would benefit the Maple Street site. Mr.
Sample responded this is an industrial area and he will be fixing up the building and putting up a
new fence. If the permit is not approved, he will have to resume the operation on Spanish, and the
cars will remain there. People do not like salvage yards and landfills, but we need to recycle our
goods. Upon questioning by Mr. Gateley, Mr. Sample stated that the trailer on Maple Street is
used for storage now but will be removed. This is where the compactor will be located.
The Council questioned if there is a specific definition of a salvage yard, and what uses are
allowed in an M-2 zone. City Attorney Eric Cunningham stated there is no specific definition, and
he read from the city code the requirements for an M-2 zone. He stated that this type of business
would need a special use permit wherever it was located.
There being no further appearances the hearing was closed.

Mr. Purcell made a motion, seconded by Mr. Gateley, to approve the first reading of BILL IVO.
2000-55. Mr, Gateley stated that there are uncertainties about this request, but these could be
clarified by the next Council meeting. This permit will help to clean up the Spanish Street area.
Mr. Purcell stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission overwhelmingly approved this
application. There will be a fence built around it, and this will eliminate one junk yard on Spanish
Street. Mr. Neumeyer expressed concerns regarding this request. The areas on Spanish and
Maple Streets are being operated illegally Mr. Neumeyer said, and the cars could be removed if
the codes were enforced. He stated that this permit will not benefit the neighborhood. In 1993
Mr. Sample requested a special use permit for the operation on Maple Street. It was denied but
the activity continues. Following further discussion, the motion was approved upon the following

Mr. Don Howard appeared before the Council in opposition to the special use permit for Lester
