John,

Sorry for jumping in on the answer, but there is not a zoning change issue
on this issue- the debate is if there is a procedural process through the
planning commission for a recommendation from the planning commission for a
conditional use and keep in mind that what is being proposed will not be a
refinery at all. If there is a drilling unit there it will be basically
unnoticeable. The company should have done a better job with their
communications to the neigboring residents as they were requested to do so.

Anyway, I really do not believe that it will create problems for any of the
adjacent neighborhoods.

Good luck and God Bless,
Craig

Deborah,

Am I correct in assuming that once the zoning is changed from commercial to
industrial, then all sorts of processing, refining or other industrial
facilities could be placed on the property?

The property owners in Buccaneer Villa and Carolyn Park need to be aware of
this. A Wal-Mart is one thing to live next to, but another Murphy or
Chalmette Refining is totally different.
