Gentlemen:
5 April 1957
The attached petition of Associates Investment Company to rezone land at
the intersection of Esther and Ruskin Streets from "B" Residential use
District and "A" Hetght and Area District to "D" Light Industrial Use
District and "E" Height and Area District being:
Lots I, 2,.and 3 in John Adams First Addition located at
the northeast corner of Ruskin and Esther Streets,
AND
Also a tract of land south of Ruskin Street, to -wit:
Commencing on the south line of Ruskin Street at a point.
136 feet East of the east line of Esther Street, thence
South 297 feet; thence East 332.45 feet; thence North
297 feet to the south line of Ruskin Street; thence west
333.46 feet, more or less, along the south line of Ruskin
Street to the place of beginning.
This petition was legally advertised under date of 25 March 1957 and
given public hearing under date of 4 April 1957. The following action
was taken:
After due consideration the Commission found that the general area
south of Ruskin Street is residential as to use and zoning, that
the subject area is adequate in size, shape and area for residential
development; that light industrial use of subject area would be an
unwarranted and unjustifiable intrusion into a residential area; that
no general neighborhood need was shown for increased industrial land
-2-
and that in fact, ample industrial land suitable for the
purpose proposed in Associates Investment Company petition
existed in the light industrially zoned tract north of
Ruskin Street.
The Commission further found that aforesaid Lots I, 2, and
3 of John Adams First Addition are in a block which is pre-
dominately zoned for light industrial purposes and that the
best use of said land would be light industrial.
It was therefore moved by Mr. Van DeVeire, seconded by Mr.
Muszynski that the Planning Commission recommend Lots I, 2,
and 3 of John Adams First Addition favorably to the Common
Council and further that petition area south of Ruskin
Street be unfavorably recommended.
Remonstrance petition with 30 signatures is attached to the petition.
Very truly yours,
