Mr. Martin Gainer, with Gerald Dake Associates presented
a number of proposed site locations for an Urban Renewal
Project area. After considerable discussion and viewing
of the map an area was selected, with a suggestion from
Mr. Gainer that the possibility of locating a school within
the site area could greatly improve the financial burden
of such a project. It was the concensus of the board that
the area beginning on 8th Street and Poplar Ave. east to
the railroad, northeast along railroad right of way to
8th Street, east to Maple, south on Maple to 12th Street;
west to Lake Avenue, south on Lake Avenue to alley between
12th Street and 13th Street, west along alley between 12th
Street and 13th Street to the railroad, northeast along
railroad right of way to 11th Street, north on Poplar Avenue
to point of beginning was in greatest need of rehabilitation.
Garnett White moved that this area be recommended to the
City Commission as the first Urban Renewal Project site
location, seconded by Robert Karns and carried. It was
decided that a meeting with the school board regarding the
need for a school within this area would be scheduled and
the results of this meeting be reported to the City Commission
along with the recommendation of the site area.
After a report regarding the regulations proposed for a
Planned Unit Development Project by Garnett White, Edward
Blacksheare moved that the regulations be recommended to
