He said on #3, they do have city sewer for all the tracts, but there may be extensions on the site for city sewer and maybe some private sewers; #4, they do show the extension for the water line.

Mr. Tucker asked what they plan to do with this property. Mr. Dunaway said they plan to use the south- east corner for office use and the southwest corner for office and retail space, but it would not be like a 7-11 store.

He said on #1, since their building sets on top of a hill, the other land would be used for parking lot and they would have no problem with the proposed thoroughfare.

Mr. Bowen said the Planning and Zoning Commission does not feel the church IS pro- perty would be involved in the thoroughfare. Mr. Owens said regarding item #2, they furnished the city with a topo study and do not feel they should be required to bear the expense of a drainage study at this time since they do not . . .
