Mayor Cole called the meeting to order; Alderman Foraker gave the invocation. Mayor Cole welcomed Boy Scout Troop #96. The troop was registered on Saturday, January 25, 2003 and given the #96. They lead us in saying the pledge to the flag. The minutes of December 23, 2002 were approved as distributed.

Annexing - Mayor Cole recognized John O. “Chip” Chorley, Jr. representing Taylor Enterprises. They are planning to build a convenience store and gas station on Highway 51 and Simmons Road. He was requesting the city look into the possibility of annexing this area to the county line.

Mayor Cole requested the General Welfare Committee meet with the State Planner on Tuesday, February 11, 2003 at 6:30 to get his input on this request.

Rezoning request - At the regular board meeting last month, a rezoning request was on the agenda for Harold and Sherry Lumpkin for property located at 499 Munford Avenue. There was no action due to the lack of a second on the motion. At this meeting, January 27, 2003, Mr. & Mrs. Lumpkin requested the property to be rezoned to C-1 (Specialized Commercial). They were informed that to change the zoning request at this point, it would have begin with the Planning Commission. After discussion, they decided to stay with their original request for C-2 (General Commercial). Mayor Cole had researched the action of the Board from Roberts Rules Of Order and concluded that the rezoning request was still an open issue and the Board needed to act on it. (See New Business)
