It appearea that the contemplated appartment co~ples was to be on the northern part of the property and was to be primarily for old people and convelescents. When the party abjecting to apparment houses~~ was asked what he would think if a clinic, or an office buildin~ or a bank wen in on the property east of ~ Evans and North of main he thought that that would be all right and much better than Appartments. Motion was made seconded and carried to reccommend to the VIllage Council that ~flae-~are-e~-ne~-9-e~-B~eek-37-A~~ee~~~-Add~~~e~-~o-~fte y.:i:xxage-er-Ex.k-R:t-"e~ The North half (330 feet) of Lot 9 of BLock 3, of Auditors Sub. No.5, in the Village of Elk River and that part of Lot 10 Block 4 of said Auditor's Subdivision No.5 that lies East of Evans, North of the North line of 3rd street extended East and South of the North line of said Lot 9 BLock 3 extended West, be re-soned from R-3 to R-4. Second Order of Business: Change of Zoning on All of Lot 8 and that part of Lot II of Aud. No. 3 lying North of Meadowvale Road from R-3 and R-4 to I-2. The only person appearing in opposition to the change was Roger T. Hanson, the owner of a tract l20 feet wide ~ abutting on the north siee of Meadowvale Road in said Lot l~, and being 234.85 feet on the East side and l53 feet on the west side. His objection was that he did not want to be left with a house in the middle of a I-2 zone, with practically no change for a resale of the house as a resident or for any other perpose. It appeared that no attempt or offer to purchase the property by the owner of the property EeX~ asking for the change had been made. The commission felt that all the property between Meadowvale and the Railroad would probably be zoned Industrial in the future. It was moved and seconded XExX and caried that the change be made as requested subject to a satisfactory agreement between the Cretex Company and Roger Hanson prior to approval of the change by the Village Council on Sept. 18th, 1972.
