Hoover zoning board to review plans for massage therapy school, virtual golf facility - Hoover Sun

[JON ANDERSON]

The Hoover Planning and Zoning Commission on Monday night is scheduled to consider plans for a massage therapy school in Meadow Brook Corporate Park and a virtual golf entertainment business in Trace Crossings, among other things.

Scott Deidun, the founder of the American Massage and Bodywork Institute in Vienna, Virginia, wants to open a massage therapy school in a 4,211-square-foot space in the 500 Building at Meadow Brook Corporate Park, city records show.

Classes also may involve cosmetology and esthetics and should be on evenings and weekends Monday through Saturday, ending by 10:30 p.m., according to Deidun’s application. Classes would have 20 to 25 students per session, with five staff members, the application said.

VIRTUAL GOLF FACILITY

Meanwhile, Michael Frymark is requesting permission to sell alcoholic beverages in a virtual golf entertainment business called Tap-Ins in the commercial portion of the new Knox Square development in the Trace Crossings community, across Stadium Trace Parkway from Hoover Metropolitan Stadium.

The virtual golf facility would have six bays, a putting green and a common area in the middle that includes a bar with seating for 16 people, according to plans submitted to the city. The property is zoned as a planned commercial district, and a “conditional use” approval is required for the alcohol sales.

The Planning and Zoning Commission also is scheduled to consider requests for:

• New sections of Blackridge Parkway that would take the road almost all the way to Shelby County 52 (Morgan Road), where a paved connection is planned. Currently, there is a gravel construction entrance off Shelby County 52, according to drawings submitted to the city.
• An amendment to the design of Everlee Phase 3 at the end of Everlee Parkway that would reconfigure existing parking to add six parallel parking spaces on Everlee Parkway.
• Allowing Allesha Rowser to change the classification for her residence at 3599 Deerfield Drive in the Pinewood subdivision from a day care home to a group care home so she can expand the number of children for which she can care at her home from six to 12 (including three of her own children) and the number of adult supervisors from one to two. She lives in a 2,006-square-foot home with four bedrooms and three bathrooms and plans to use the downstairs bedroom, bathroom and basement area for child care, according to information submitted with her application.
• Zoning property at 3951 South Shades Crest Road and 2308 Old Rocky Ridge Road as R-1 single-family residential districts.
