The meeting of the Planning and Zoning Board was called to order at 7100 P. M. by Mr. Bowness. 1. A oublic hearing was held on Petition 73 -9, a petition by the zoning board requesting rezoning of three parcels of property from R -AA to R -3, R -AA and R -1A to C -1, and R -1 and C -3 to I -1. Mr. Lait explained the zoning to the audience and the purpose of it to give the property a higher value and orderly growth. Mr. McRobert indicated that the city had to make plans for ex- pansion or be faced with traffic problems in the future within the city as it is growing fast. After much discussion some objected to the change while others were for the proposed zoning. The discussion involved questions concerning reconstruction of present dwellings, restrictions, additions and permits for those who owned property within the area to be rezoned. Mr. Lait made the motion for those who presently owned property to be able to reconstruct, add on, and purchase permits for dwellings that are now existing provided that if the property was sold it would have to meet the new zoning requirements. Mr. McRobert seconded the motion. Mr. Lait restated his motion for the benefit of the public in conjunction to the proposed zoning in regards to single family dwellings that the owners should be able to repair, rebuild, or purchase permits and that the proposal be recommended to the Council. Mr. Thomas seconded the motion. Motion carried.
