Another letter from Mr. Forest J. Brady, et a1 was presented, requesting the Council to consider the ap- peal of the property owners, as it was their feeling the properties in question were logically located for R-3 zoning due to the size of the lots. They are un- able to keep these large parcels because of the in- 1 and. A memorandum from the Planning- Department dated June 10, 1968, was presented, regarding the f+ndings of the Planning Commission. The Mayor declared the public hearing open. The Clerk read a petition bearing 29 signatures protest- ingathe proposed zoning on the grounds that there is R-3 zoning in the immediate area, and it would de- preciate their homes. Royce Bond addressed the Council and stated that Mr. Brady was unable to attend the hearing as he had a heart attack and is under the doctor’s care. Mr. Boyce further stated since the hearing of the Planninb Commission he purchased one of the parcels in this downtown area, and he is interested in the develop- ment of the business district. This R-3 area would feed the downtown area. These large parcels are not fully developed and the weeds detract from the beauty of the city. Also mu1 tiple dwellings would add extra tax monies. It was his understanding that one of the reasons the Planning Commission denied the applica- tion was that a motel or hotel might be established on these properties and there are no ramps to the freeway from this location. Robert Baylard, 1012 Home Avenue, spoke in opposition to the zoning, stating that Home Avenue had business on one side of the street and now they are confronted with R-3 on the other side. There is sufficient R-3 zoning undeveloped and if this zone change is granted i-t wil’l turn this area into a low cost housing area small children and would like to raise them in a quiet environment.

McComas inquired of the Planning Director if he felt that R-l zoning was the proper zoning for this area due to the proximity of the freeway and the location of the property between two off-ramps. Mr. Ola'nghouse state He did not feel that R-1 .zoning is incompatible w;.th the freeway; however, he would recommend a planned development for this area. An ordinance will be pre- sented to the Council in the near future in regards to planned development. ' In a planned development you can have mu1 tiple uses , and you are not concerned with zoning but more in density. it would depend on the landscaping of the freeway C Mr. Bond'again addressed the Council pointing out thad since the Master Plan was developed Jefferson Street has gone R-3. There is a need for homes and apart- ments. The city is bound to grow and more apartments will be needed. As there were no other persons desiring to speak the Mayor declared the public hearing closed. Cmn. McComas stated he was ccncerned with t.he philos- ophy of the Planning Commission's reasoning. These property owners have a real problem and he w.ould like to see this do.ne by way of a precise plan, with per- ~' haps eliminating hotels and motels. Discussion ensued and a map of the existing R-3 zoninc was shown. By common consent of the Council the matter was de- ferred until the.next regular meeting for further study. ENGINEERING: [99] - (a).
