Minutes of the July 13, 1970 meeting were approved as received. Old Business - There was no old business scheduled. e i New Business - Two applications had been received and properly posted for hearing at this time. 4 J J. F. Woods had requested a variance from the front yard setback requirements 'in the RMF zarie to permit him to erect a single family residence fifteen,feet from the. north margin of 7th Street instead of the twenty-five feet required. The property concerned is situated between Peabody and Vine Streets. Mr. Wood desires to align the new structure with the ad;oining houses. Following a brief discussion, it was voted to recommend the application be approved. James I. Bairey had requested a Conditional Use Permit to allow him to construct a duplex in the RS-7 zone on lot 8 and the east half of lot 9, Block 356 Townsite. This is situated on the south side of eleventh street between I1p" and I1G" Streets. Residents of the area were present and submitted a protest petition. A brief discussion ensued and the members voted to table the request until a protest map could be prepared. Other Business - William Mair, of Mair Brothers Construction Inc., had requested approval of a septic tank and drainfield on lot 10 and the west 20 feet of Lot 9, Block 452 Townsite. The nearest sewer is approximately two blocks away and at a higher elevation than the land in the vicinity of Mr. Mairs property. Members ~iscussed the situation and voted to recommend approval. Mr. Mair then inquired if it might be possible to extend this approval to the remainder of the property scheduled for development to eliminate the delay en- countered in applying for Planning Commission and Council approval, Health District approval and building permit. Members felt that such blanket approval would not be in the best interest of the neighborhood. Should the situation develope that the land becomes too densely populated for proper drainfield operation, individual approval would enable the Planning Commission to deny further installations. - Members discussed the proposal to allow apartments in the two RS zones on a Conditional Use permit basis. The maiority sentiment was that such an amendment was very undesirable and voted to request the secretary to arrange a joint work-session with the City Council on this item. All voted approval except one abstention. C oY"~ed"o'" - No abs.J.el'l-flons. No further business was presented and the meeting adjourned at 8:15 PM.
