Tire Store Rezoning DENIED

The Hendersonville Standard has the story of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen denying a request by Firestone to rezone property in order to open another tire store:

Less than a month after receiving a unanimous recommendation from the city’s planning commission, Hendersonville’s Board of Mayor and Aldermen voted down last week a request to rezone property on East Main Street that would have allowed for a second Firestone Tire Center.

Hendersonville planning commission members recommended 10 to 0 on Aug. 6 an ordinance to rezone 1.04 acres east of Callender Lane and north of East Main Street from rural residential to general commercial.

FS Hendersonville, LLC requested the zoning change in order to build a corporate-owned Firestone Complete Auto Care.
