APRIL 5, 1966
FORREST WATSON spoke in favor of the rezoning. He and Mr. Luke bought the
property when four-plexes could be built and the revised zoning Ordinance
permitted construction uses. He favored R-3 zoning.
MRS. JAMES (LYDIA) SISK, 1747 Poplar, objected to the rezoning due to
safety factors involved. She cited that there were approximately two cars
per family now and she could not see how Mr, Luke could provide enough
off street parking on the two lots in question.
ROBERT KRESS, 727 W. Jan, was against the rezoning as he felt there were too
many duplexes in the area now. He further stated it would decrease their
property valuation as well as making the area undesirable for R-1 dwellings.
Mr. Kress preferred consistent zoning by the Council and less "spot zoning."
ROLAND SMITH, 731 W. Jan, was against the rezoning as he, likewise, felt there
were too many duplexes in the area. While he realized there was a lot of vacant
land, he was against multiple type dwellings being built as it would affect
his property valuation.
D. SWITZER, A.J. ANTHONY, JIM SISK, DICK RYDER, MR. YOUNGQUIST, LES SMITH,
JIM KECK, CARROLL MYERS$ VERN'MANSON AND L. STURDEVANT all addressed the
Council and supported previous statements as to their objections to the

do with the best interests of everyone in mind. Mr. Carter went on record
as opposing this particular zone change.

showed it met the strength requirements. Their recommendation was as follows:

the amount of the cost of the cement - $1.00 per sack, or $0.75 per
cubic yard; 329.5 cubic yards of concrete was placed using the 5.0 sack
mix, thus, making a credit of $247.13. This credit is noted on Estimate
