Take a google streetview stroll down Weeke's street and ask yourself how those homeowners enjoyed their C3 zoning. We don't need another storage given that there is one across the street (zoned Dekalb OD, much lighter with lots of greenspace) and another new one a few miles away. We are a residential neighborhood and a historical district, adjacent to an area of light neighborhood-friendly commerce. A C3 zoned warehouse is way out of line for this area. C3 is the heaviest industry zoning possible and completely inappropriate near family housing. <br /><br />C3 is the only zoning code that would allow facilities with "excessive smoke, odor, noise, glare, fumes or vibration, and may include uses that are unsightly, noisy, noxious or offensive." C3 zoning is also the only zoning code that would allow "A facility that provides treatment for persons who present a direct threat to the persons or property of others. Includes sex offenders, and transient housing related to post-incarceration programs". <br /><br />Do you want a car repair lot at Scott and Clairemont? Do you want a pawn shop and title store at Emory Commons? How about a sex offender treatment center or homeless shelter to replace one of the older historic houses in the Clairemont historic district. C3 makes it all possible.<br /><br />Don't let C3 get a foot in the door in our already established residential and light commerce neighborhood. If Decatur's big condos need storage space, and Decatur needs revenue, have the warehouses put near the condos. We already have one. Or better yet - put warehouses on the EAST SIDE where it has already been blighted by the only C3 zoning in City of Decatur. <br /><br />Don't let developers get a C3 foothold to destroy our walkable, transit-friendly, affordable, diverse, age-in-place friendly neighborhood that we love.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-37434457813001968962018-05-30T11:37:03.295-04:002018-05-30T11:37:03.295-04:00We are becoming the mattress and self-storage capi...We are becoming the mattress and self-storage capital of the world.
