Zoning Talks Stall Over East Lexington Drive Intersection
City Council and Planning Commission failed to reach a decision on rezoning the East Lexington West Chester Drive corner amid pressure to rezone other corners to retail. Residents fear continued commercial growth will worsen traffic. Mayor Stout urged a solution allowing Washburn Co to expand without rezoning if possible. No action was taken on Washburn rezoning. The English Road A-2 to B-2 change for Louis S. and Mary P. Ershler was denied northward for 155 feet, approved with utility easement retained.
