I could really use some help.....
My City recently updated its comp plan. It is a relatively small town with a major highway along one side of it. The goals incorporated in the comp plan includes protecting our existing small town-downtown character by pushing for 0 lot line commercial developments......etc. Pushing the suburban, big box type commercial development to the highway.
So.....Walgreens comes in and wants to build at on our main street (the most prominent corner of our small town, downton area). The City, who although approved and agreed with the comp plan, now want to bend over and let them put a store in, of course setback, with parking in front.
What I need to do is find some pictures of Walgreens (and other drug stores downtown) that show the following.....
Walgreens in a suburban type setting (which is where their design and layout most often belong....parking in front etc...)
Walgreens with 0 lot line setback (to show that it can be done....just in case the city does bend over, I can force them to follow the comp plan)
Or other Drug Stores.....
The kicker is, is that while they are saying how great they would be for the community and how they pay top dollar and do a top notch job.....they want tax increment financing.
