PLANN I NG COMM I SS ION MEETING
July 3 i 1952
Members present--Mayor Frantz, Manager Flint, Councilmen Wright, Janssen, Jones.
Minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.
Meeting dates to be changed to the Thursday morning prior to the 1st and 3rd Monday of
each month.
The first item of business that came up was the Kinc a mmon's Subdivi s i on located between
Dartmouth and Cornell and between Clarkson and Ogden. The problem of opening up Emerson
Street has tentatively been worked out pending getting final dedication from Brummage
and other property owners to allow a 50 ft. wide street with the alley runnin g east and
west to be widened to a 20 feet to allow access onto Ogden Street. Final approval of
the plat would be made after these d edications were made and after the deeds were obta~ned
from the adjoining property owners for the street and alley as above described.
Next was the proposed annexation of eleven blocks bounded by the following description:
Lenigh and Huron Streets west to Jason, south to Chenango, east to Huron, south to
Belleview, east to Fox, north to Grand, east to Elati, north to Chenango, east to
Delaware, south to Layton, and west to point o f beginning. Mr. Belts property which
is the two blocks north of Layton and West of Huron Street should be included in this
proposed annexing area. It was the Planning Commission's feeling that zoning should
be made effective the date the annexation becomes effective in order to control the
building size and building sites and setback in this area.
The third item was presented by Mr . Vernon Pinkerton who owns property facing west on
Galapago in the 3800 block approximately 250 feet in length. Mr. Pinkerton asked the
Planning Commission for permission to subdivide the parcel on the basis of 50 feet
frontage building sites with a 720 square foot residence. Any action was deferred on
this matter until such time as the members of the Commission could make inspection of
the area as related to other homes in the area. Wright, Janssen, and Jones made an
inspection immediately following the meeting and it was the consensus of opinion of
those members that the building site frontage should be kept on a 60 foot frontage basis
plus or minus 2 ! feet because the majority of the adjacen~ building sites were on a 75
foot frontage basis . Mr. Pinkerton was informed by Jones of the opinion and Mr.
Pinkerton was going to check further into lF.H.A. approval and probably present his
problem at the next meeting.

The next item of business--Mrs. Brown, representing Cline & Hardesity , Realtors, presented
Mr . Straud , representing Furr Foods, requesting rezoning of the area owned by Mr . Wilson
between Bates and Cornell and Corona and Downing. They wished the zoning to permit them to
b u ild a supermarket in this area. This request was turned down because it was felt that
this would not be satisfactory to the home owners in that area. Another site was suggested
to these people which they were going to check on .
Chairman Janssen suggested that Mr. Guilford work with City Attorney Shivers to prepare the
master street planning to be radified by the council, published and hearin g s held in order
to make it conform with statute requirements in th:is manner. It was felt by those members
present that the action on this matter should be taken immediately.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted ,
Lee R. Jones
Acting Secretary

Minutes of previous meeting read and approved.
The first item of business was the proposed shopping center between Sherman and Logan
Streets, north of Jefferson Street. Plot of same was studied and discussed. It was agreed
that we ask for a 30 ft. outlet from Grant to Sherman and an easement from Logan-Grant
alley to Grant, city to vacate the north 15 ft. strip between Sherman and Logan. Suggested
that we leave this plan as tentative until Mr. Flint can check further. It was moved and
seconded to refer the matter to the council with the proper easement to used and required
streets and alleys as to be determined by Mr. Flint and that necessary arrangements be
considered by the council .
Mr. Lee Corder presented a request for rezoning of the area facin g Fox Street, south of
Dartmouth to E astman. He wished the rezoning to permit the building of 4-unit apartments.
This request was turned down to conform with other zoning in that area. The Commission
recommended 60 ft . frontage building sites with 850 square foot floor space on Fox Street
between Dartmouth and Floyd .
Motion was made and seconded that we recommend the above zoning on the four block area
area between Dartmouth and Floyd, Fox and Huron.
It was suggested that Mr. Corder work with M. Flint on the details of his subdivision,
and all tentative to final approval of the council.
Moti o n was made and seconded that we affirm the recommendation of tre committee as to the
Vernon Pinkerton property facing west on Galapago in the 3800 block. Wri g ht, Janssen and
Jones made the inspection following the meeting of July 3rd. It was the consensus of
opinion of those members that the building site frontage should be kept on a 60 foot frontage
basis plus or minus 2 ! feet because the maj ority of the adjacent building sites were on a
75 ft. frontage basis.
Manager Flint submitted a letter received from Mrs. George Clavier. She refused to g rant
40 ft. of her property on East Cornell and South Clarkson for the purpose of a street.
She returned deed unsigned, also plot of the proposed street.
It was suggested that we consult Mr. Brummage, greenhouse owner for ten feet and then ask
Mrs. Clavier for 30 feet between Cornell and Dartmouth on Emerson.
Meeting adjourned at 12 noon.
