Mechanic amendment takes 3 hours

It took three hours for City Council to approve a zoning change so a Kline Road Mechanic could operate a business out of his home. Neighbours for and against the project squared off throughout Monday night's meeting, and Mayor Keith Hobbs had the final word before the vote saying he's not going to vote against a person's livelihood. Leon Giardino will be allowed to operate a mechanic shop on his property as long as he doesn't store the vehicles outside of his shop.
