PASCO, WASHINGTON REGULAR MEETING COUNCIL CHAMBERS MARCH 7, 1961 PUBLIC HEARING: ANNEXATION, PROPERTY IN COLUMBIA RIVER ADDITION & COLUMBIA ADD: Legal notice of hearing was read. Mayor Hicks declared the hearing open. MR. WEIGE was present to speak in behalf of his mother, MRS. JULIA WIEGE, owner of lots 11 to 16, inclusive, Block 9, Columbia Addition. His mother favors being zoned C-1 and does not desire to do anything more about it at this time. Property owners on either side of the Wiege property have ex- pressed a desire to rezone from R-1 to C-1. One party obtained Resolution setting up procedure to so do, but to date has not filed a petition. City Attorney informed the Planning Commission and the Council that in follow- ing the language of the Ordinances, the Wiege lots would either have to be rezoned before annexation or come in as the most closely analogous use (R-2 as it now is zoned) then petition to rezone to C-1. A discussion was entered into and all seemed to favor taking the Wiege property in as Zone C-1. The City Attorney questioned procedure on zoning Wiege property unless the conditional language on zoning is removed from the petition for annexation. Mr. Wiege stated his mother definitely wants C-1 zone, but right now is not feeling very good and does not want to make any more changes. No objection to the petition were received by mail and Mr. Weige was the only one present in behalf of the hearing. Mayor declared the hearing closed. Motion made by Grant, seconded by James, to accept all property that was in the petition and public hearing as zone C -1 -owing to the fact th&s is agreeable to every- one present and the comprehensive plan in process.now will be classifying this property C-1 and receiving its acceptance into the City. City Attorney is hereby requested to draw two Ordinances, one for annexation and one for zone classification C-1. Motion carried unanimous.
