Minutes of the special meeting of the Port Angeles Planning Commission,
June 26th, 1956.
Members present were McGee, Reiners, Gort, Hankins, Hampton and Strange.
Also present was City Engineer Ahlvers.
Minutes of the two previous meetings were read and approved.
This meeting was a continuance of a hearing on a variance application
begun at the meeting of June 5th, 1956.
The application in question was that submitted by Benjamin N. Phillips
on Lots 1 & 2, Block 343, Townsite of Port Angeles, for a variance from
the zoning ordinance to allow the construction of a doctor's clinic
building at the corner of 11th and Lincoln Streets, the location of which
is in a first class residence zone. .
Present at the meeting and speaking 1n opposition to the application were
Messrs. Myron Scott, Palmer Swenson and Eugene Dansereau.
The Planning Commission examined thoroughly the petition submitted in
opposition at our first meeting on this variance and also a record of a
survey submitted by those in favor of the application. Both of these
records are returned herewith to the City Manager and Council for their
guidance. The matter before the Commission was discussed from every angle
by those present with all members of the Planning Commission taking part
in the questioning. After a discussion lasting at least one and one-half
hours, Messrs. Scott, Swenson and Dansereau retired from the meeting.
Commission members then took the matter under advisement and proposed and
adopted the following resolution: That the Planning Commission recommend
to the City Council the application for the variance together with the
plans submitted be approved with the exception that there be a five foot
"hold-back" from the West property line instead of the three feet as shown
on the plan and that the granting of this variance be on the plans as
submitted only and for no other use. The vote on the resolution was
as follows; Strange, MeGee, Hankins, Reiners and Gort voting yes and
Hampton voting no.
No further business appearing, meeting adjoured at 9:45 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
