Good Morning Percy Priest Neighbors,
Pawn Shop
As discussed and promised I am providing an update on the discussions I had yesterday with the business owners in the plaza where the proposed sign is to be placed at Bell and Murfreesboro Road close to the Anderson Road corridor. I spoke with Chris Myers who is the manager at the Pawn Shop and she was unaware of the sign and had no knowledge of it. She further stated that they would not be in support of a sign as their concern would be advertising would take place for other businesses outside of the ones who lease the space in the plaza. She explained there was a large billboard at one time next to the Hair Shop but it posed a significant danger to the property and businesses and was removed. She gave us the name of the property manager Ms.Walker who manages the property on behalf of The Kuo's. She said she would not be back in the office until Monday. We did obtain the property managers office and cell number.
Check Cashing - Advance Cash
I spoke with Misty the manager and she was unaware of what was being proposed and expressed concerns similar to Chris at the Pawn Shop. She said she would not be in favor of the sign and asked that I share with her any upcoming meeting information. She said the only thing that she was aware of was the red sign out front which she said she really did not know what it was about.
Steve Murrary Jewelry
I spoke also to Terry and Steve at Steve Murray Jewelry and they expressed the same concerns as Chris and said they would be opposed to such a sign and felt it would pose a safety issue. They cited some specific incidents that they have observed and expressed they would like to attend the upcoming meetings. We obtained their email address and shared with them the zoning meeting date as well as the meeting below called by Councillady Wilhoite and told them we would let them know the location once announced.
Beauty and Beyond Hair Store
I spoke with Saul Bustillo who is the manager on duty at the Beauty and Beyond Hair Store on the hill in the plaza and he said he would not want another big sign because it would cover the business view. He was so glad the eyesore dangerous one was no longer on the property and was not in favor of a large flashing sign that would potentially cause accidents of which he has observed as well.
Charlton Realty
I spoke with Virginia Lopez who works directly with Mr. Charlton at Century 21 across the street and they would like to work with us. They also shared testimony about the signs and will work with us.
Thank you,
Karen Y. Johnson
