A proposed addition of a paint booth by Planet Paintless has sparked discussion at the recent Midland Planning and Zoning meeting. Andrew Mellon from Maverick Engineering presented the request, explaining that the paint booth is not permitted under the current Rural Residential (RR) zoning, prompting the need to rezone to Commercial (C).

Mellon clarified that the site will remain unchanged aside from the new booth installation. The public hearing saw no opposition, with no speakers voicing concerns or support for the project. Following the presentation, the commission moved to close the public hearing, indicating a smooth path forward for the proposal.

This development highlights the ongoing adjustments in Midland's zoning regulations as businesses seek to expand their operations. The commission's next steps will determine the future of the paint booth and its impact on the local community.
