from the audience, stated several objections to Mr. Hendricks moving his
building onto his lot as requested: 1) the building would be so close to
Mrs. Strigga's house as to present a fire hazard because of the chimneys
2) the house would block off the only existing road to the property, it
would interfere with Mts. Strigga's electrical and telephone wires. Comm.

unanimously by voice vote.

machinery on the North side of the runway at a sufficient distance from the

the distance required from the centerline. Mr. Barr suggested that the
exception be granted temporarily until the land is purchased for the runway
extension, with an agreement included that the equipment be removed then
without cost to the City. After further discussion, the public hearing was
closed. Comm. Best amended his motion to read that the exception be approved

extension of the runway with the understanding that all equipment be removed
by Wright & Welborn within 90 days after the purchase and any structure or

The proposed revision was read, and it was determined that it was for a
clarification of the ordinance, rather than a change in it, due to the fact
that several uses listed under the R-3 zone were intended to be permitted in
R-1 and R-2 as well, but were left out of those zones in the ordinance as
written. Comm. Juelson made a motion that the revision as read be recommended
to the Assembly as an amendment to the Ordinance. Seconded by Comm. Perez
and carried unanimously by voice vote.
B. Comm. Best brought up the recent article in the Mirror concerning lots being
for sale on Near Island. He noted that the Subdivision Ordinance requires
legal subdivision of lots before they can be offered for sale to the public.
A comment was made that the article in the paper was for the purpose of
determining the interest in the land. However, Comm. Best made a motion
that a letter, to be signed by the Vice Chairman, be directed to Mr. Deveau
calling his attention to the Subdivision Ordinance. Seconded by Comm. Perez
and carried unanimously by voice vote.
