Present: Hunt, McHone, Treat, Dilling, Anderson, Driscoll, Building Inspector Willson. Absent: Hankins Meeting was opened at 7:30 P.M. in the Municipal Chambers. Minutes of the previous meeting were approved as received. Old Business - There was no old business to be considered. New Business The request of Del-Hur for a rezoning in the 13th and 11M" Street area to permit enlargement of the existing gravel pit had been referred to the Planning Commission from the City Council for its recommendation. After considerable discussion it was voted to recommend the request be denied. In the Commission1s opinion, this would merely expand an exist- ing situation which is very likely to present many problems in the future. Most of the members also reported having received numerous ob- jections to the request from property owners in this vicinity, and further recalled that this has also been the past history of the exist- ing operation. Some members also felt that this might be construed as IIspotll zoning. Mr. L. N. Jungman, 319 W. 8th, presented his proposed replat of lots 18, 19 and 20 Block 1 Highland View Acre tracts. Memos from the various City Departments were read relative to the proposed replatting. Following a short discussion the Planning Commission voted to accept the Preliminary Plat as submitted. Other Business Mr. Lester Larrivee, P.O. Box 646, was present to discuss his proposed operation of a lunch counter at Park Avenue and Peabody Street. This is the site of the former grocery store - gas station - lunch counter operated by Frank Donahue. A brief discussion followed, during which Mr. Larrivee's plans for the future development of the property were re- viewed. It was noted that pin ball machines have long been a part of this operation and no objection had been raised by the high school ad- ministration. The Planning Commission members felt that Mr. Larrivee intended to operate this business in a satisfactory manner and could see no reason for objecting to re-opening this as a pre-existing noncon- forming operation in an RS-7 zone. The remainder of the meeting was devoted to a study session on reVlSlon to the present zoning ordinance. Meeting adjourned at 9:30 P.M. . . .
