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.

A delegation of property owners, Martin, Uhlman, Bolte, McFarland, Knight and Mr. Hood
visited the commission meeting. They were opposed to the proposed rerouting of Little
Dry Creek and rezoning the flood land, as it affected .their properties.. Considerable
discussion took place. The Commission explained that the city engineer had made the
tentative survey of the new route of Little Dry Creek in the area of Fox and Huron,
Dartmouth and Floyd, and all subject to realignment and approval of the Council. It
was explained to these property owners that the city is not asking the changing of Dry
Creek unless they are sure it isn't flooding. The purpose is that the future area
will be better off. It was agreed that we must see what Engineer Barde's final report
is, and the decision of the city council. It was suggested that we make a suggestive
layout showing how the building sites can be utilized after the rerouting of Dry Creek.
Mr. Flint suggested that we would have everything ready by the next meeting. The
problem is to make the final solution for the channel ofDry Creek, possible channel
appropos routes to be prepared by the next meeting.
Vernon Pinkerton asked permission to build two, 720 square foot residences on his
property facing west on Galapago in the 3800 block. The commission suggested that
Mr. Pinkerton be allowed to build one, 720 square foot residence, exclusive of garage
and plat it with a 62! foot front. He was advised to prepare the plat to bring before
the city council next Monday night, first house, 720 square foot, exclusive of garage
and the remaining residences, 820 square foot, exclusive of garage.
The plat of Lee Corder's subdivision, W. Dartmouth to Eastman, South Fox to Galapago,
approximately 660 feet was considered. The Commission recommended that lots be divided

PLANNING COMMISSI ON MEETING
August 14, 1952
Members present: Manager Flint, Mayor Frantz, Councilman B. B. Wright, Lee Jones,
Lawrence Guilford, Maud Coffey
Mr. Guilford, vice chairman presided in the absence of Mr. Janssen.
Minutes of the previous meeting read and approved.
Jim Taylor, Robert G. White, E. J. Schaetzell, and Mrs. Leo Hood visited the meeting.
They represented the Hood Subdivision and were particularly interested in the rerouting
of Little Dry Creek. The layout of the preliminary relocation of Dry .Creek, showing
the first and second survey drawn up by City Engineer Barde, was presented by the
Commission. The Hood delegation had previously objected to the first survey of the
rechanneling of Dry Creek, but were in favor of the second survey which routes Little
Dry Creek by Mr. Norlander's and Mr. Field's property.
Mr. White has 480 foot frontage on Fox and Galapago which would break down to 60 foot
sites. This would be acceptable to the Commission if he connect with the sewer on
Dartmouth, otherwise the Commission would require a 75 foot frontage. The Commission
also required a full 60 foot dedication on Eastman and Galapago.
The Commission advised the Hood delegation to personally contact Mr. Norlander and
Mr. Fields and get their approval of the second survey of the rerouting of Dry Creek.
The Commission advised that approval of any subdivision of the Hood property is also
contingent upon the settlement of Dry Creek rechanneling.
Mr. Guilford presented the matter of the adoption of the Master Plan for the City of
Englewood. It was agreed that any action as to the ad6ption of the Master Plan be
postponed until the next meeting.
It was reported that Mr. Goodwin who owns property between Pearl and Washington north
of Layton Street, would subdivide on the basis of 62! foot fronts with dedication with
his half on Pearl Street, and will build minimum of 850 square foot homes.
Meeting adjourned at 11:40 a.m.
