Former Columbia City Clerk Jane Akin Keltner spoke up about spot zoning and bad drainage on Fairground and Campbellsville Streets at Monday night's City Council meeting. She questioned the P & Z spot zoning in a residential zone which allowed the storage facility to be built just past the Fairgrounds. She stated that it was built with about two tons of gravel and no drainage tile underneath it. When it rains all the water comes off the property over the street.
The same questions on zoning and drainage were posed by Eddie McQuaide at the November City Council meeting. Comments | Permalink
