Post by Bluff Park Forum Admin on 05/09/11 at 8:11pm

A couple of notes regarding this:

1. Mr. Ps is not in the city limits of Hoover, therefore we do not usually report on it - we limit our information on Bluff Park topics. Technically, Mr. Ps is not in Bluff Park.

We asked the sender of the e-mail why this was important enough to ask for a posting. Their reply was that this zoning change would impact the community in that the Pilliteris could then add buildings to the lot which is currently a parking lot. This would impact traffic and the sender of the e-mail felt it warranted at least posting it. We tend to agree, regardless of it's location.

I anyone feels that this is not a good idea, we suggest you attend the public hearing.
