<br /> pUBL1C HEARING PRQPOSED ON REZONING OF LOTS 3 and �., Block 9, KENSINGTJhT S�,UARE ( Sifford
<br /> Property) from R-1 to C-1-H. City Clerk Dodge mailed out 54 Postcards, notices to prop-
<br /> erty owners within the 300 foot radius. Public hearing was announced and there were no
<br /> written protests. N:r. Jack Perrins of 3221 Jefferson Avenue appeared and voiced his
<br /> � objectione to the rezoning ar_d the location of a $as station next door to his residence.
<br /> � 1!Zr. Ray Catellano, 336 Dover Road, spoke in favor of rezoning.
<br /> The follovsring persons stated their opposition to the rezoning: Mrs. Burnstone, 503
<br /> Upton Street, Harry Rendell, 568 Alameda de .las Pul�as, Mr. Barnhouser, 3114 Jefferson
<br /> Avenue and Mrs. Scott, 132 Hillview Aver_ue. All of these persons objected to another
<br /> Gas Station being located in the area. Councilman Britschgi stated his opinion that the
<br /> commercial district should be conf�ined to the present area and not allovred to spread
<br /> beyond the Alameda de las Pulgas. In his opinion Jefferson Avenue is a residential
<br /> street and should be limited to the business now located. Councilman Royer was of the
<br /> opinion that we should take no steps which would limit business in t he City inasmuch as
<br /> tax rates are largely determined on business properties �nd have a very desired influ-
<br /> ence on taxes assessed against resident property. �ouncilman �ierkner called attention
<br /> to the fact that the Planning COmmission was about to consider placing gas stations on
<br /> �
<br /> a Use Permit basis and inasmuch as the protests apparently were a�,ainst an additional
<br /> �
<br /> gas station but did not object too strenuously to other types of business, he stated his
<br /> desire to divide the question. Should the Planning Commission establish the Use Fermit
<br /> idea then the property could be rezoned and the property owne rs would be saf'eguarded.
<br /> � After further discussion Councilman Herkner moved that the public hearing be continued
<br /> �"' to March 29th to allow time to review the Plannign Commissions findin�s. 114otion was
<br /> seconded by Councilman Spillers and carried.
