Council Considers B&B Cooling’s\u00a0 Request to\u00a0Relocate to the Old Firehouse on Washington<\/strong><\/p>\n

By Carol Arnett<\/strong><\/p>\n

The old firehouse on Washington Street could be reincarnated as a business.\u00a0 Michael Becker, Sr., came before the Florissant City Council to request a rezoning for the building, at 1955 Washington Street, to allow his business, B & B Heating and Cooling, to move in.<\/p>\n

The building is currently zoned residential. The proposed rezoning would change the property to a commercial zoning.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis area is residential, but it is adjacent to a strip center,\u201d said Councilwoman Karen McKay, in whose ward the building is located. She noted that the business was currently located in Florissant. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled that you are staying in the city,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Becker said the business would be open from 7 to 4:30. He noted that the business does not get much drive-in traffic; most of its business is by phone. \u201cWe won\u2019t leave multiple trucks there, and we get very few deliveries,\u201d Becker said.<\/p>\n

McKay said that the business is currently located in her ward. \u201cI\u2019ve never had a complaint about equipment or anything at the current site,\u201d she said. She added that she was \u201cvery much in support,\u201d of the rezoning.<\/p>\n

City Attorney John Hessel noted that the Planning and Zoning Commission had recommended approval of the rezoning, with the condition that it would revert back\u00a0 to the old zoning if B & B left the site. Hessel\u00a0 reminded\u00a0 the council that they could not legally set the rezoning to revert. Once the building is rezoned, it would take another rezoning to change it back to residential.<\/p>\n

In other matters <\/strong>at last week’s city council meeting ,<\/strong> the council:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Passed a bill banning texting while driving for persons over the age of 21. The council passed a bill banning texting for people under 21 at a previous meeting.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Passed a bill authorizing the appropriation of $25,000 to cover telephone expensed for the remainder of the fiscal year. Councilman Andrew Podleski noted that the city was near the end of the fiscal year, which runs Dec. 1 to Nov. 30, and asked why the phone bill was $25,000. Mayor Lowery said the bill was for land lines.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Passed a bill authorizing the appropriation of $20,000 for additional election expenses. Councilman Tim Lee said that this was required because the bill from the Board of Elections was \u201csignificantly higher that before,\u201d and the city had not budgeted the additional amount.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
