G. Wright again appeared before the Commission to further discuss the possibility for zoning change from R-1-D to R-2-A in an area between East Bates Avenue and East Cornell Avenue. The gentlemen originally appeared on June 27, 1957, showing a petition for the rezoning between thPse Avenues and between the Grant-Logan alley and the Logan-Pennsylvania alley which area is not contiguous to a presently zoned R-2-A Zone District. A new petition was presented indicating signatures of thirty-five property owners in a larger area which is bounded by the Sherman-Grant alley (present East line of R-2-A Zone District), East Bates Avenue, the Logan-Pennsylvania alley and East Cornell Avenue. This area is, of course, contiguous to the present R-2-A Zone District. After considerable discussion relative to possible Planning Commission consideration for entering rezoning procedure, Braun mo ved : Guilford seconded: That the petition be received and that action be deferred until after a comprehensive Housing Code has been adopted.

Collier -Representative Harry Folkerts -Owner Supreme Coal Company 3200 South Inca Hearing No. 89 864 South Broadway Mr. R. A. Collier, representing Supreme Coal Company (Harry Folkerts, owner), requested further confirmation of a tentative approval for fertilizer mixing and processing use on lands described as 7.6 acres located at and near 3200 South Inca Street extended, beginning at the Northeast corner of the NEi of the SE! of Section 33, T.S. 4, R 68 W, thence South along East line of said NEi, 1318.35 feet, thence West at right angles 634.25 feet, more or less, to Easterly line of the Santa Fe Railway right of way, thence Northeasterly along the Easterly line of said right of way 624.96 feet, thence East at right angles 420.33 feet, thence North and parallel to East line of said NE!, 725.03 feet, more or less, to North line of said NE", thence East along said North line to place of beginning, Arapahoe County, Colorado. It appears that this matter was discussed before various City Government bodies and officials during December, 1954, and January, 1955, and it is claimed by the Supreme Coal Company that general approval of these lands for such use was obtained. Since the records concerning this matter are scattered and should be bright together in one package, Rudd moved: Braun seconded: That the Planning Commission recommend to City Council that they authorize the preparation of a transcript of all proceedings and all correspondence within the City Council, Plannin g Commission, Zoning Board of Adjustment and the City Attorney's off1ce in regard to the request for specific use of the above described lands.

This would provide for a full 16 foot alley as the Ea~t 8 feet of the proposed 16 foot alley has been dedicated previously.

M. Members Present: Barde , Braun , Guilford, Jones, Rudd Members Absent: Romans Charles Johnson, Realtor Mrs. Rose Lorenzo, Owner See Below Hearing No. 50-D November ~~, 1956 December 13, 1956 February 14, 1957 June 27, 1957 Mr. Charles Johnson of Charles and Company, 3149 South Broadway, presented a written appli- cation requesting the rezoning of nine (9) lots which extend Southward from the Southwest corner of the intersection of South Logan Street and West Kenyon Avenue (West side of South Logan), from present R-1-D Zone District to C-2 Zone District for the specific use of a service station operation, contending that such would be it's "highest and best use". The following listed facts were considered: 1. In 1955, Englewood's Zoning Ordinance was approved by the City Council under due process by notification to the public and holding of public hearings. 2. Such Ordinance was drawn on the basis of "percentage of square foota g e as related between one zoning area and another". 3. This percentage ratio was the result of a thorough study of land use by experts in the professional field 0f zoning. 4. On approval , this Zoning Ordinance became an integral part of Englevood's Master Plan as provided by Colorado Statute. 5. The people, through their elected Councilmen, did not approve this Zoning Ordinance on the basis of "highest and best use" of small parce1ls of land, commonly known as "spot zoning ". After consideration of the above, Rapp moved: Rudd seconded: That the request be denied on the basis that sufficient C-2 Zone District area is now provided in the City of Englewood as recently attested to by the City's professional plannin g and zonin g consultants.
