Could we have them make the project a LEED Green building project? That would address water, heat island, community connectivity etc? It would be great to have an environmentally responsible construction project in Decatur.

My guess is that it would be an allowable use under the present zoning, though there may be issues with the alcohol permit.

AMB, I’ll be happy to pass along your idea, but I don’t have enthusiasm for it. One of the neighborhoods’ goals all along has been to reduce the impact on neighbors from late night sound and noise, and this doesn’t strike me as compatible.

C’mon, Bubba. We can vehemently disagree with each other here, but most of us try to do it in a more civil manner. This is especially true on sensitive subjects like Wal Mart (WalMart? Walmart? Wal*Mart? – ugh, I never know which version is correct).
