ALEATHA VAUGHN, 3365 Eureka Place, stated that property owners on Eureka Place were concerned about this rezoning be- cause of the street being so narrow, but the property owners at the north end of Eureka Place all had their fences out 10 feet farther than they shou3-d have.- Mrs. Vaughn stated she was in favor of - this reclassification.
