<br />call.
<br />PUBLIC HEARING, PROPOSED REZONING LOTS 1 TO 5, BLOCK 1, ROBELET SUBDIVISION, FROM R-2 TO R-3 (1425-1441) Ebener
<br />Street). The Planning Commission held several public hearings on this matter and continued final action
<br />until the Land Use Plan had been adopted by the Planning Commission. It is the intention of the Planning
<br />Commission to rezone the larger area from R-2 to R-2 District, but the Commission feels that this
<br />application should be forwarded prior to the determination of the area zoning because of the length of time
<br />that the application has been pending. Councilman Weiss moved that this matter be tabled until item 10
<br />on the agenda is held. The Mayor ruled this motion out of order as this was a public hearing and there
<br />were people present who were interested in this matter. Mr. Martin Sweeney, representing Mr. Robelet, spoke
<br />on the subject and stated that a small portion of these five lots was in R-2 and the other portion of the
<br />lots were in R-3 zoning. Councilman Herkner moved that the public hearing be continuted until after item
<br />10 is completed, seconded by Councilman Stout and carried, Councilman Granger voting NO.
<br />PUBLIC HEARING, PROPOSED REZONING LOP 5 AND PORTION LOT 6, BLOCK A, WOODSIDE ACRES, FROM AN R-2 DISTRICT TO AN
<br />R-3 DISTRICT (1557 Hudson Street). The Mayor said this was the same as item number 2 and they would take
<br />up item number 10 before acting on this item.
<br />PLANNING COMMISSION LETTER RECOMMENDING MASTER LAND USE PLAN (item #10). The Clerkzead the letter from the
<br />Planning Commission wherein they stated that they held several public hearings and several study meetings
<br />r.� on the Plan before adopting said Plan, and while there were some protests, particulars from the Friendly
<br />Acres area, it is the sincere feeling of the Planning Commission that the Plan as proposed is in the best
<br />interest of the City as a whole. It should be remembered that the Land Use Plan is a guide for the
<br />Planning Commission and is not in any sense a Zoning Plan. The Planning Commission feels that the Plan
<br />should be reviewed annually, or at the time of adoption of other units of a Master Plan.
<br />Councilman Weiss read a prepared statementroihieh reads in part as follows: "I object to the consideration
<br />of the question as the matter presented is incomplete and nothing but a map indicating areas With proposed
<br />uses by indicating its ultimate zoning, etc. - - Certainly under the circumstances we should be provided
<br />with a comprehensive written report containing factual data and information to support the proposed uses
<br />and zoning. - - It Councilman Weiss moved that this matter be laid on the table until such time as a
<br />comprehensive report is received from the Planning Commission to substantiate the map furnished to the
