The proceeds from the sale of the fxnlit could be used to (1) repay the City for the taxes on the prop- erty; (2) purchase band uniforms; (3) pay for entries into the Rose Parade, and other worth- while projects. Mary Bixby Mrs. Bixby referred to the proposed Walnut 216 Minot Grove development, explaining that she and a (Walnut Grove Development) few of the neighbors met with the developer, Mr. Lareau, and arrived at a reasonable com- promise.

The Commission recommended that if the property owners do not want the street, then considera- tion should be given to rezoning the area from R-1 (7,000 square foot lots) to R-l-15 (15,000 square foot lots) to create a more compatible zoning pattern and avoid piecemeal development of these properties. Public hearing opened This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Hamilton opened the public hearing. Richard Stead Mr. Stead spoke against the zone change. He 674 Second Avenue said it gave the property owners in the area a choice between R-l-15 zoning or a street. The past "piecemeal" developments in the area were done with the approval of the Planning Commission, and Mr. Stead added, he felt the Planning Commission failed to exercise due care in these decisions. He remarked that the public welfare can best be served by allowing these property owners who want to split their lots to do so in a reasonaSle manner (7,000 to 10,000 square foot lots) and put reasonable size houses on them - ],200 square foot homes.
