The current business may be run well but what about the next person. The following spoke in favor of the rezoning: Frank Perugini, W125 S9808 North Cape Road, stated he operates a business across the street from the subject property. Mr. Perugini expressed his supports for the rezoning and the development of the property. PJ’s Trucking has been in business for 20 plus years. There have been no problems. He believes the expansion of the existing trucking business on this site is a better use than a strip mall. The owner of PJ’s Trucking, Patrick Theys, spoke. He stated he has owned the trucking company for 40 years. He runs a clean operation and values his neighbors. If there is a problem, he will address it. The Mayor declared the hearing closed at 6:26 p.m. The Deputy Clerk read the petition of Mike Erickson of All Star Rentals LLC to rezone part of Tax Key No. 2295.999.010 from A-1 - Agricultural District to B-4 - Highway Business District for the purpose of allowing a future land division and future commercial uses.
