ITEM #12403
Vice Mayor McCoy stated that on Thursday there were two articles
in the paper regarding Rock Church and the residents of Fairfield.
Rock Church wishes to build a large complex behind the Fairfield
Shopping Center, which will be comprised of a 150-unit highrise
apartment, a $6-8 Million, 7,000 capacity sanctuary, a Bible
College, and a Ministerial home, and several other buildings.
At the present the property is zoned A-1, and Rock Church would
like it zoned A-4, however, they have withdrawn that application
and are planning to appear before the Board of Zoning Appeals for
a variance to construct the highrise.
Vice Mayor McCoy indicated that the highrise would present no
major problems, lic)wever, he does have some concern for the complex
as a whole.
ITEM #12404
Vice Mayor McCoy indicated that Mr. W. W. Reason was to dedicate
13 acres of land for a park in the Fairfield area of the City.
Mr. Reason stated he did not have to dedicate the land, therefore,
the City went to Court. The Court ruled in the favor of the City.
Mr. Reason came to the City with a plan whereby he would donate
6-1/2 acres and the City would not have to purchase the other
6-1/2 acres. The residents of Fairfield are under the impression
that the City is going to give 2-1/2 acres of the remaining 6-1/2
acres to the Fairfield Civic League, or the newly formed Fairfield
Home Owners Association to form a pool area and complex.
Vice Mayor liccoy indicated he did not feel the City should give
the land to these subdivisions, but sell the land at a reasonable
price.
The City Manager stated that the paper reported be had agreed to
give the 2-1/2 acres, something he did not do as he had not even
attended the meeting.
The City Manager further indicated to the president of the civic
league that he could not recommend an,Tthing of that nature to Council
until he had a chance to study the matter.
