Gates Funeral Parlor Expansion and Parking Management

Summary

Everett Gates is expanding his funeral parlor at 2205 Cluster Oak Drive into an empty suite, adding a 70-seat viewing chapel. Commissioners raised valid concerns about whether 25 on-site parking spaces could support both the funeral home and an existing hair salon, leading to an agreed-upon 50-person cap and overflow parking use across the street.
