Sonic from Dogwood Drive. Ms. Huff explained that the only issue before the <br /> council was to consider an ordinance that would repeal section 2 of ordinance <br /> #97-7-1. Ms. Huff said she believes the section which reads "That there will be <br /> no ingress or egress to the property by way of Lakewood Drive." was not legal <br /> and would not hold up in a court of law. Mr. Davis also spoke to the council and <br /> explained why the new entrance was needed. He said that the wording in <br /> section 2 was added to keep traffic off of Lakewood Drive which was a private <br /> drive for the Mr. Stan Dombroski residence. Mr. Davis has recently purchased <br /> two more lots on Dogwood Drive with plans to remove the house on the first lot <br /> and make a new driveway to enter and exit Sonic. Also a new easement will be <br /> granted to Mr. Dombroski and Dr. Davis said he will be donating some additional <br /> land to the Dogwood Fire Station. Mayor Biard opened the floor for residents to <br /> respond to the proposal. Mrs. Nina Wommack and Mrs. Margaret Henley spoke <br /> on behalf of several land owners on Dogwood Street. Mrs. Wommack gave the <br /> council a copy of the "second amendment to the deed of dedication and bill of <br /> assurance" with over 50% of the land owners saying that they do not want a <br /> commercial driveway with an ingress and egress on Dogwood Drive. Several <br /> landowners were present and spoke against the driveway sighting safety and <br /> increased traffic for their reasons. City Attorney Stalker said he was not sure if <br /> section 2 of ordinance 97-7-1 was legal and as far as the bill of assurances were <br /> concerned, that would be a civil matter between the landowners and Sonic and <br /> not with the City. The other issue of concern was if Sonic could build a driveway <br /> on R-1 property. Ms. Huff said the City's code does not address driveways <br />
