Minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. First order of business was consideration of an application of Henry P. Hirschal for a variance from the Zoning regulations that would permit the retention of a mobile home on his property located at the junction of the Truck Route and Highway 101, an area recently annexed to the City. In as much as this unit had been occupied for the past six years and its removal would be a hardship, a motion was passed recommend- ing to the City Council the application be approved and the owner be granted a non-transferable permit. Mr. Robert Scanlon was present and requested relief from the regulations of the off street parking ordinance for a proposed building at the corner of First and Laurel Streets. (The Old Aldwell Building Site.) Mr. Scan- lon was advised and assured the Canmission would cooperate in any manner possible, but that no action could be taken until a bonified request was made setting forth the type of building proposed, its occupancy.and any other information on which the Commission could base its action. . This meeting had been set aside fo~ study of the proposed Zoning Ordinance. The City Council had been invited to meet with the Commission for this purpose. All members of the City Council, together with the City Man- ager were present. Advance preparations for this meeting included proposed land use sheets showing various designations for all parts of the City together with a temporary new Zoning Map in color that had been prepared by Robert Willson, Building Inspector. The study began with the first item on the sheets known as R 9 Residential and proceeded through all the various designations including Multi-Family, Buffer, Business, e~c. and ending with Industrial, a total of some fifteen items. As the study progr~ssed, notations were made on any subject that should be corrected. At the conclusion of the study, which lasted some two hours, those present were agreed in general the designations as set up and corrected would be acceptable to the City.
