COUNTY OF BALDWIN
The City Council, City of Fairhope, Alabama, met in
regular session at 5:30 p.m.; Fairhope Municipal Complex
Council Chamber, 161 North Section Street, Fairhope,
Alabama 36532 on Monday, 23 February 1987.
Present were Mayor James P. Nix; Councilmembers Roy C.
White, Jeanette Puckett, Michael A. Ford, Barney Shull and
David Ed Bishop. City Attorney James Reid and Acting City
Clerk Betty Rivenbark.
There being a quorum present, Mayor Nix called the
meeting to order. Minutes of the 9 February 1987 regular
session were duly approved.
Council considered final adoption of Ordinance No.784
an ordinance rezoning the Tom Brown/FSTC property on Greeno
Road on West side. Mr. Brown was not present. Request was
from R-1 to B-4. David Ed Bishop moved for final adoption
Roy White seconded and motion carried unanimously.
A public hearing was held on a request to vacate a portion
of Tensaw Avenue, request by property owners Sally Maloney and
Gaston Lee VFW Post #5660. Property lying between Block 8 and
Block 9 Volanta subdivision. Ken Slade was present representing
the petitioners. He mentioned that they were not asking City to
vacate the beach area, but area above on bluff, that it has not
been used for beach access as it is too steep. Several members
of the audience spoke, some for and some against. Mike Ford
asked if there had been a precedent set in past years, and was
answered no. Jeanette said she was concerned as to what may
occur some 25-30 years down the road if we give the property
up now and may need it later. Roy White said that the last
reason we should vacate this area should be for monetary gain,
that he is firmly convinced that we need to preserve what we
have for future generations, and nothing that had been.said
convinced him we need to vacate this property as requested.
It was pointed out that all the lots down there are lots of
record and can be built on as they are. Councilman White
moved to table this request until the next meeting in order
to study the information. Jeanette Puckett seconded and motion
carried unanimously.
Mary Lou Luckie and Barry Gaston were present to report
the Annual Arts & Crafts Festival as being March 20, 21, & 22
and request street closing on Church Street on the West to
Magnolia and Delamare Sts., Fairhope Avenue from Section to Church,
Section from Fairhope to Delamare, same streets as previous.
Mrs. Luckie also asked that the Chamber be allowed to use two
parking spaces on the Section St. side for the restaurant assoc.
to sell cokes. Barney Shull moved to approve requests as made,
Mike Ford seconded and motion carried unanimously.
