Chairman Brown called the meeting to order and welcomed the new
member, Mr. Bud Tally.
Discussion was begun on the request of Mr. Kirk's to rezone Lots
7 -16, 23 -32, and 37-48, all in Pine Heights, to a 0-1 zone.
Mr. Kirk stated that five national concerns were interested in
leasing the property for a shopping area.
Mr. McKibbin asked what they intended to do -with the property on
Oak Avenue and Mr. Kirk said that it would be for residential use.
This area is Lots 7 -16 of the above described property..
Mr. McKibbin moved that a recommendation be submitted to the City
Commission to rezone Lots 30, 31 32 46 47, and 48 to C -1 and Lots
23--29 and 37-45 to C -N. Seconded by Mr. Morgan.
Mr. Kratzert entered a protest against such rezoning due to the
fact he lives at 242 and Park Avenue and does not want the property
to be commercial with all the truck traffic and noise. He stated
that he bought residential property in a residential neighborhood
for his home and that it should be protected.
Mr. Uollins expressed himself as being in favor of a commercial
area around 252 and Park Avenue and he realized that it may hurt a
few people, but that it would help a great many.
On a question from Mr. Brown, Mr. Kratzert agreed that a shopping
area would be better than a jungle. His concern, however, was that
there was no assurance that there would be a shopping area put on this
property.
The question was called for and the motion passed with Mr. Lee
voting "no ".
Mr. McKibbin moved that a recommendation be made to the City Com-
mission to amend the Zoning Ordinance to exclude open air or curb
service fruit and vegetable markets from any C -N zone. Seconded by
Mr. Collins and passed.
Upon learning that Mr. Housholder was resigning to work with the
County Airport Zoning Commission, it was suggested that Mr. C. W.
Johnson and Mr. Ralph Pezold be submitted to the City Commission for
appointment.
Mr. Lee moved that Mr. McKibbin read the minutes of the previous
meetings and report to the Commission for their adoption. Seconded
by Mr. Morgan and passed.
