study with the possibility of establishing regulations and
guide lines for this use in the C -1 Districts.
Mrs. Campbell stated she would comply with any regulations
formulated by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Mr. Julian moved that Mrs. Campbell be permitted to establish
her business at 107 W. 27th. Street in compliance with the
above conditions.

Mr. John Burton addressed the Board in reference to the request
by Mr. Gordon L. Bradley for a variance in the Zoning Ordinance
as it pertains to Off Street Parking Requirement for Apartment
and Apartment Hotel Complexes. Mr. Burton stated a minimum of
50 off street parking spaces would be provided for the proposed
Redding Garden Apartments for the Elderly Complex. He advised
the Board that tentative approval of the plan had been granted
by H.U.D. in Atlanta and the number of parking spaces indicated
was in general compliance with statistic= compiled by H.U.D. for
housing complexes for the elderly.
Consideration given to the close proximity of shopping centers,
churches, library and recreational facilities, thus eliminating
the need for transportational vehicles.
Mr. Burton also stated that a re- design of the plan would cause
considerable delay an additional expense before implementation
of the project could begin.
Mr. Karns moved, based on the information submitted by Mr. Burton

that comments and discussion of the previous adjourned meeting
be waived.
Seconded by Mr. Phillips, motion carried by unanimous vote.
Considerable discussion by various members followed with concern
given to the ingress and egress to parking facilities. Mr. Pop
pointed out to the Board that curb cuts were limited to a maximum
of 50 feet, thus creating more safety islands.
Concern was also voiced referenced to increased traffic flow
generated by the complex. The Board determined if this became
a problem in the future, the City could utilize a one way street
plan to resolve the problem.
Mr. Karns moved that the Board grant the variance as requested.
Seconded by Mr. Julian, motion carried by unanimous vote.
There being no further business the meeting was adjourned.
