UBLIC REARING - Prezoning of Allen-Cromer Annexation
This being the time and place, as advertised, for a public hearing
on the proposed prezoning of the Allen-Cromer Annexation to R-1-A (Single
Family one acre), Mayor Menzel declared the hearing open.
Hr. Garth Knapp, property owner in the annexation, protested the
proposed R-1-A zoning, stating that when he was approached to annex his
property to the City, he was assured that the zoning would remain as it
was. He asked that the annexation be withdrawn unless the half acre lot
zoning is retained.
Mr. R. M. Allen, property owner in the annexation, stated that be-
cause of the topography of the annexation, most of his property would be
suited for the R-1-A zoning but agreed most of the Knapp property would
lend itself better to half acre lot zoning. It was his contention that
road frontage of a lot was more important than area requirements.
Mr. Stephen Gassaway, speaking for the Sweetwater Valley Civic Asso-
ciation, stated that the association does not oppose development of half
acre lots in the area but would prefer that the area be zoned R-I-A, as
proposed, temporarily with the hope the developers will develop the area
as much as possible with a buffer zone of acre lots between any half acre
lots which might be developed and those acre lots which are already developed.
No others wishing to be heard either for or against the proposed
prezoning and the Clerk having received no written protests, the Mayor de-
clared the hearing closed.
Mr. Knapp was assured that the zoning proposed was temporary and will
be reconsidered by the Planning Commission and City Council for permanent
zoning at the C/uae the subdividers submit a subdivision map for development
of the area,

erty for $1,300.00, the City to install at City expense the curbs, gutters,
