At the planning commission meeting Tuesday, the go-kart track planned by John Fenley at 2622 W 17th Ave was not approved. Despite complying with the written requirements, and despite overwhelming public support for the project, the city planning commission decided that my plan was insufficient, and did not approve it. The decision to not approve the track was expected, as an independent go-kart track, not sponsored by GFPB would show that the GFPB plan is ineffective in meeting it’s goals.
This is further proof that GFPB, and the city are cooperating to stifle outside development, in an effort to monopolize positive movement in Pine Bluff.
