RE: Request to waive third reading for text amendment to allow funeral facilities in the
highway oriented commercial (HOC)zone
Honorable Mayor and City Council;
I understand that the city will address the second reading for the proposed text
amendment to allow funeral facilities in highway oriented commercial (HOC) zone, at
the regular city council meeting on June 12, 2007.
This action was recommended on May 2, 2007 to the Planning and Zoning Commission
and passed 6-0 unanimously in favor of this action. On May 22, 2007, you as the council
approved the first reading unanimously.
We are anxiously awaiting the council's approval so that extensive remodeling and
additions can be made to the facility. By waiving the third reading I would be able to
change my status from unemployed to self employed. Grandon Funeral & Cremation
Care could then begin assisting the Ames citizens with their funeral needs.
On behalf of Timothy& Kimberly Grandon, of Grandon Funeral & Cremation Care, we
hereby request the City Council consider waiving the third reading for the proposed text
amendment.
Please contact Timothy Grandon at 292-CARE (2273) if you should have any concerns.
Sincerely,
Timothy R. Grandon, President
Grandon Funeral& Cremation Care
