the Board of Zoning Appeals for a Special Use Permit for a general store and, Whereas, we find no substantial
detriment to adjacent property, that the character of the zoning district will not be changed thereby, and that such use
will be in harmony with the purpose and intent of the Ordinance, I move the Special Use Permit be granted. Motion
