Logan was held up pending further study by Mr. Flint and Mr. Barde on the widening of So. Logan. The Building Inspector was asked to hold the permit. A copy of a letter from Mr. Janssen to the City Council was read by Mr. Guilford. The letter recommended to Council that they postpone final reading of a bill for an ordinance initiated by Woodman Builders vacating all of Pine Way together with a number of alleys in this area and it is suggested that the City Engineer prepare a sketch of the area lying between Broadway and Clarkson, Belleview and Chenango in order to show the over- all problems and what streets and alleys will be affected by this proposed ordinance. The meeting adjourned at 1:15 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Dorothy Romans, Secretary Approved: 4 /15/54 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING April 15, 1954 Members present: Fred Janssen, Mayor Weigand, B. B. Wright, Lee Jones, Mgr. Flint, Dorothy Romans. Meeting convened at 9:30 a.m. Mr. Janssen presiding. Mr. John A. Matthews, 3627 So. Sherman and Mr. R. B. Clapp, 3647 So. Sherman, presented a petition requesting that the 3600 to 4100 blocks inclusive on So. Sherman be rezoned to an R-4 district, so that Mr. Matthews and Mr. Clapp may be permitted to construct 4- unit dwellings. (A previous petition opposing the construction had been subm it ted which contained the names of people on the new petition--claims misrepresentation on part of person who circulated first petition.) One building already constructed by Mr. Matthews and Mr. Clapp is claimed to be on both R-3 and R-2 land and they were advised to attend the Board of Adjustment meeting in May to request the split zoning be adjusted. No action will be taken by the Commission on the request to rezone the 3600 to 4100 blocks on Sherman (inclusive) until the new zoning report is available. Mr. C. W. Atkins, G. W. Wildgrube, and M ~.E. Wildgrube visited the meeting to discuss the land owned by Mr. Atkins on Washington north of Belleview, (previous to its vacation known as the East half of Blocks G & K, Hermosillo Place and one-half of vacated streets adjoining same, except the South 150' there of). It was requested by the Com- mission that the costs of both proposals of platting which have been considered previously be worked out and that Mr. Atkins and Mr. Dunham of Woodman-Dunham appear at the next meeting of the Commission in order that members of the City Council, the Commission and they themselves might arrive at an agreement concerning the development of the sight. Mr. Hans Robinson, 3220 So. Clarkson, questioned whether or not it would be permissable forhim to build a dwelling on 37!' adjoining· his home. Because of zoning requirements his request was denied. Mr. Flint reported to the Commission that there has been a request to open Cherokee between Leyton and Chenango. There is a dwelling 6' from the property line of the South- east corner of Leyton on Chenango which could not be moved so it was suggested that 50' for the street would have to come off of the land on the West side of the street. The plats on the West side are 296' deep and would still be adequate sights if the 50' for the street and a utility easement were taken off. Mr . Dunham presented temporary platting of the Clarkson-Washington block--North of E. Belleview. If Council approves vacating of Pine Way it would permit 20 sights in the block. Mr. Dunham was asked to attend a meeting on April 29, 1954 at 10:00 A. M. with Mr. Atkins, members of the City Council, and the Commission to see if some agreement could be reached on working out satisfactory platting of the area from Washington to the Belle-Wood Subdivision, north of East Belleview. Mayor Weigand presented to the Commission a question brought to him by a Mr. Clements who resides on the corner of Galapago and Tufts whether or not a curb cut would be allowed into his drive way. Zoning calls for Hollywood curbs and it was suggested that the City Engineer should . check to see whether or not the grade either of the street or tpe yard could not be cut down; curb cuts would not be allowed. Mr. Flint will check with the City Engineer. The annexation plat of the Stewart Subdivision submitted by Mr. Walter G. Wilson, 2772 So. Downing, at the April 1, 1954 meeting was discussed. It was recommended that Mr. Wilson contact owners of Lots 1 and 2 to see if they would be willing to annex at th e same time. Should the annexation be accepted the Commission would ask Mr. Wilson to change the platting of the block as was first presented--ten sights as presented were: #1 --100' (existing basement house) #2 through #9 ~-50' #10 --100' The change requested: #1 --100' (existing basement house) #2 through #7 --a minimum of 58' #8 an existing building #50' #9 --50' #10 --50' Mr. Jones was asked to check with Mr. Wilson about the possibility of annexing the additional two parcels.

B . Wright , Mayor Weigand, Mr. Flint, Dorothy Romans. Meeting convened at 9:45 a.m. Mr. Jones acting chairman. Mr. A. F. Schasse, 1295 So. Santa Fe Drive, who had appeared at the Feb . 25, 1954 meeting concerning his property bounded by Kalamath, Jason, Kenyon, and Lehigh, asked whether or not the rezoning was completed. Mr. Schasse desires to build a home (little shack) and raise pigeons. He was advised not to build --to watch for publication of hearings on zoning. Mr. C. A. Mossbarger, 4895 So. Huron, Su-1-0059; appeared previously at the March 12, 1954 meeting. Mr. Mossbarger had his property at 4895 So. Huron surveyed, and found that the lot adjoining his home which he wishes to sell is 67 feet, not 70 (seventy) feet as he had thought~ His home is only 3 (three) feet from the property line, thus making it impossible for him to add to the 67 feet. Mr. Mossbarger was asked to appear at the next meeting of the Board of Appeals. The Com- mission will ask that the Board consider the possibility of use exception in order that a building permit can be cleared .. Mr. Flint will make a pencil sketch of the block to present to the Board ~ John A. Tieri, 946 Egbert, Brighton, has obtained a three-year lease from Godfrey Franc on the NW corner of So. Emerson and W. Hampden. Mr. Tieri desires to operate an A&W Root beer drive-in on the property. Because his lease runs only for three years, Mr. Tieri requests that he be allowed to construct a metal building on a cement slab; in order that the build- ing can be moved. There is no curb, so curb cuts will be unnecessary. Mr. Tieri was referred to the Board of Adjustment because of the type of construction (metal). Mr. Walter G. Wilson, 4080 So. Fox, appeared to find out what decision had been made by the Commission concerning the annexation of the Stewart Subdivision. The secretary read the recommendation from the minutes of the April 15, 1954 meeting. Mr. Wilson was asked to follow through on annexation plans and platting as suggested by the Commission and appear at the Council. William B. Sayre, 1480 Clarkson; architect for James L. Taylor appeared to answer questions concerning the building permit requested for construction at 4111 So. Broadway. It was moved by Mr. Flint that the structural design as submitted and explained by the architect be tentatively approved by the Planning Commission, sub j ect to final approval of the Building Inspector before permit is granted. Seconded by Mr. Wright. Motion carried. Mr. Wilt, 1045 w ~ Hampden, has an existing builcling at the above address and wants permission to build a fabricated steel building on a cement block 22' x 50' on the front of his 100' lot. The building does not conform with specifications in the building code and does not meet requirements of a #2 fire zone. Mr. Wilt was advised to consider a permanent building that would comply with the building code and fire zone requirements. Ralph Wilson, Wilson & Wilson Realty, wants to construct a filling station on seven lots at the SW corner of E. Jefferson and So. Clarkson. Mr. Wilson requested that zoning be chang ed to allow the filling station ... R-2 to C2. Mr. Wilson .was informed by the Commission that a storage type intersection is planned on Clarkson by the State Highway Dept. and that there would be a question of curb cuts. Harmon and O'Donnell will be consulted about the proposed zoning and the Highway Dept. about curb cuts. Dr. Norman Jensen, The Jensen Co., 901 Sherman St. Tabor 2192, pres ent e d information about the Odor-Ridd Automatic Toilet Bowl Ventilator and asked that the Commi s sion grant approval, not requirement, that it be used by builders, at their option , rather than open duct work or fan in interior bathrooms. The Ventilator has been approved by the City and County of Denver, Jefferson County, Adams County, Arapahoe County , Littleton, and the State Health Department. A motion by Mr. Wright, seconded by Dr. Weigand, that the Commission recommend to Council that they consider taking the necessary action to permit installation of the Jensen Company Odor-Ridd Automatic Toilet Bowl Ventilator if the following requirements are adhered to: 1 . This device must be connected to and operated by the bathroom light switch so that it will be functioning at all times when the room is in use. 2. Ventilation duct may be constructed of flexible metal or plastic, in place of ..S heet metal as required in
