The Planning Director stated that in a recent conversation with Mr. Dick Lone, Chairman of

After brief discussion, the Commission set a tentative date of February 24, 1965, for the
joint meeting.

division Regulations for Arapahoe County on February 16, 1965.

No action was taken.
IX. OBSERVATION TOUR.
At the meeting of February 3, 1965, it was decided that "observation tours" by the Commission
would be conducted. In view of the upcoming public hearings, Mrs. Romans asked the Commission
to set a date for this tour.
Discussion followed; it was agreed to make the tour on February 27, 1965. The Commission
members would meet at Harold's Pancake House at 7:00 A.M. for breakfast and commence the
tour at 8:00 A.M.
X. REACTIVATION OF ILLEGAL USE.
Mr. Rice cited an article in the Englewood Herald of February 15, 1965, which article concerned
the reactivation of a real estate office in an R-1-C Zone. This use, according to the Herald
article, was abandoned for the past six years. Mr. Rice felt this should be called to the
atten t ion of the City Manager for further action.
Discussion ensued; it was asked if the use were "non-co nforming" or illegal? After c o nsulting
the 1940 and 1955 Zoning maps, it was pointed out that this particular area has never been
zoned commercial and it could be assumed that the use is illegal, not non-conforming. Further
discussion followed; Mr. Rice stated he would contact the City Manager for further action on
this and other cases.
It was moved and seconded to adjourn the meeting. The motion carried; the meeting was declared
adjourned at 11:30 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
