Jane Laney spoke in opposition to the project. Duane Lewis said (1) There was much better control of septic and water systems than on an individual basis. He said there was an insurance policy for $10,000 per unit. (2) He said the square footage was 850 and has more storage area than the original design. Lisa Beckham said there were ten to fifteen people at the planning board meeting regarding this request, and three or four persons spoke. Sandra Phillips spoke against the project, saying there was a lack of notice about the hearing. Jane Laney questioned the square footage expansion of the units. Mr. Lewis said they had added 400 sq.ft. to each unit. D. C. Morrison inquired what the condominiums would be made of and about grounds - keeping. Mr. Lewis answered it would be made from certified building products and ex- plained how the grounds would be maintaned. Mr. Pope explained the concept of condominiums and that each home owner has a responsibility to keep up the grounds. Mr. Frank Phillips, Stotts Road, said there was available land on hard surface roads that is in the price line of this property and questioned why people would not want to buy lots and build their own homes. Mr. John Thomasson said he was opposed to the rezoning. Jane Laney presented a deed to the chairman, showing the property was bought from Mallard Head Country Club, she said.
