However, Klemme asked the commission consider evaluating the property in conjunction with adjacent properties as part of the potential rezoning.City staff studied the issue and presented alternative approaches for consideration, which included five options: Conditional Use, Special Permit Use, Industrial Campus Only; Perimeter Locations Only; Employee-Oriented Establishments.After discussion, planners chose the Special Permit Use approach.Foster said approval of the recommended ordinance must now go before the City Commission and will require two readings and a public hearing before it is approved.Klemme, along with owners of the Southern Fried &amp; Sweet Tea owners were present at the meeting. Currently, they own a restaurant in Puryear and just opened a mini-restaurant in Murray.In other business:The planning commission approved a site plan for Shed Properties USA at 2930 E. Wood St. submitted by L.I. Smith &amp; Associates. The original site plan was revised because TDOT did not approved of the proposed driveway, but now it has met approval. The outdoor storage business will be located near Stockdale’s and the Farm Bureau.The planning commission also approved a site plan for PMB Rentals at 139 Hwy. 69N, also submitted by L.I. Smith. The portable building sales will be located near the Henry Farmers Coop and they will share a driveway.Foster noted that both of these site plans were in the works before the city imposed a temporary moratorium on more outdoor storage businesses in the city.Photo by Shannon McFarlin.</div></body>
