The owner of 4.31 acres near Bridgehead Road wants to change the land use from commercial to light industrial, arguing retail isn't viable there and industrial use would bring 100-260 jobs and $30,000-$40,000 in new annual property tax. Commissioners split on whether to protect Oakley's limited commercial land.
