Jarmoluk & Kuhn's Request for Zone Change Anton Jaroluk and Jerry Long were present to request a zone change from R-l to R-3 for parts of Lots 1, 2, 3, & 4, Block 2, Auditor's Addition. They presented pictures of the lots and one of a 4-plex they would like to see on the property. Commissioner Fox asked who 01vned the 42 feet difference on the drawing. John MacGibbon stated that he did, and that he had purchased the land 25 years ago. The public hearing was then opened. John MacGibbon wanted to know why a 4-plex was tp be built, when perhaps something else might be better. Mr. Jarmoluk stated he was just feeling out the Commission on what would be appropriate to put on the property, and also'a single family unit would be too hard to sell at current market prices. Tom Johnson wanted to know what the Planning Commission's philisophy was, on spot zoning. Connnissioner Fox said the Commission tries to see that the best possible use of ,the property is determined. Mr. MacGibbon stated if property was to be zoned R-3, what was to prevent them from putting up an apartment complex or a trailer park. It was stated by Commissioner Fox that the Commission would and has in the past restricted the proposals very severly as to what could be put up. Mr. MacGibbon also stated that from the ordinancesJthat if zoned R-3~ the property has to be one acre. Mr. Jarmoluk said it was approximately 2/3 acre. Tom Johnson stated that the corner near there was a hazardous one. Paula Dargis stated also the the corner was bad and she does not allow her children in the yard because of it, and the additional possiblity of 8 more cars on the street would add to it. Mr. MacGibbon wanted to know how the Commission could make ,a recommendation to the City Council without knowing what was going to be put on the property, Roy Wallace stated that the Mason Lodge was zoned R-3, and it was an eyesore and didn't want tha~ to happen here. Commissioner Fox said that the Mason Lodge was granted a conditional use permit. Also, Mr. MacGibbon questioned what was to prevent the Burgoyne garage from corning to the Planning Commission for a zone change to R-3, and perhaps a precedence was being set. Mr. John MacGibbon, Jr. stated his concern for the orginal idea of keeping it all residential in this area. Commissioner Fox suggested tabling the idea for now until more information could be obtained. Also, asked if John MacGibbon would object to a building closer than 30 feet on the back, perhaps 15 feet, which would have to be far enough away so that the hill would not erode on to the building. . Commissioner Fox asked if he would accept any restrictions the Commission might place on the property. CO}lliISSIONER TRACY MOVED TO TABLE THIS PROPOSAL. CO}lliISSIONER ZABEE SECONDED THE MOTION.
