Gentlemen:
January 10, 1964
The attached petition of DeWitt Marshall,134 S. Dade Street, to rezone from "B" Residential Use and "A" Height
and Area District to "C" Commercial Use and "A" Height and Area District Lot 615 Summit Place 3rd Addition, being
more generally described as 142 S. Meade Street was legally advertised under date of December 30, 1963 and given
public hearing on January 9, 1964. The following action was taken:
After due consideration the Commission found that the favorable recommendation
of the petition would result in spot zoning and therefore could devaluate the
surrounding property, the rezoning would confer on the owner certain rights not
enjoyed by other property owners and that the sole purpose of the rezoning was
to allow the erection of an auto repair garage. It was therefore duly moved,
seconded, and unanimously carried that the petition be recommended unfavorably
to the Council.
Very truly yours,
