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 into: 9 58 ft. fronts on Fox Street 1 94 x 64.5 ft. on Dartmouth A proposed plat for the resubdivision of Lot 1 and 2, Block 1, Eldo Subdivision was submitted by Leonard Goodwin, owner. It was approved by the Commission subject to tentative checking by Mr. Flint. This proposed subdivision lies between South Washing- ton and South Pear 1 Streets, 4 -62.5 foot sites facing South Washington, and 4 -62.5 foot sites facing South Pearl, north of E. Layton Ave. Meeting adjourned at 11:30 a.m. respectfully submitted, Maud Coffey, Secretary * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Meeting convened at 9:30 a.m. 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. Respectfully submitted, Maud Coffey Secretary I I I
