MacArthur Drive zoning petition seeks special use designation

96 MacArthur Drive, Alexandria, LA.

By JIM BUTLER

The Alexandria Zoning Board of Adjustment will hear a request to allow special use on property at 96 MacArthur Drive.

The board meets at 4 p.m. June 10 to review the petition of Willow Neo LLC and hear any support for or objection to it.

A now-closed business exists at the location but because the tract is zoned SF2 (residential) a special exception is required to locate another enterprise there, in this case a proposed tire service center.

Automotive aficionados or jingle followers will most recall the site by “Double-A-Beep-Beep-M-C-O”.

For everyone else the tract near Virginia Avenue was the location of AAMCO Transmissions.
