So basically for the sake a proposed vision of the area that could be 20+ years down the road, it's justifiable for the city to eff over a business owner who's done all the proper applications and processes to rebuild their business after an unfortunate accident? The city's own policy allows for the submitted structure to be built, but they're still going to deny them based on their feelings of what should be on the site? Then what's the point of even having zoning permits in the first place and set rules for these permits? Just let the city dictate what can and can't be built depending on personal feelings.
It honestly blows my mind that there are some who actually side with the city on this.
