Planners To Hear Request To Operate Taxi Service

July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.

By TERESA SMITH, Times-Union Staff Writer-

Tye Lisenbee, 222 W. Prairie St., is seeking a variance to operate a taxi service with two vehicles in a residential-2 zoned district before the Warsaw Board of Zoning Appeals tonight.

The petitioner requests an additional vehicle for the increased demand of his services. The comprehensive plan indicates the land use is commercial, according to preliminary findings.

Lisenbee has said he would use Washington Street for parking; however, the creation of a hard surface behind his property has been recommended.

While adjacent property owners are in favor of the petition, Fast Cab Taxi Service owner Dave Cesaretti has filed an objection to ASAP Taxi Service's expansion.

The BZA meets at 6:30 p.m., a change from the board's regular meeting time of 7 p.m. the fourth Monday of the month.
