Mosely to rezone their land abutting Dix Road on each side thereof between St. Mary' s Boulevard and south to Williams Street and on the land 200 feet on each side of Dix Road from A-2 District to E Zone.

E. Hall to rezone property located at 212 Buchanan from present A-2 zone to C zone multiple dwelling district so that a barber shop permit could be issued. It is the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission that the petition is definitely spot zoning and although we are sympathetic with Mr. Hall' s request for a special permit for rezoning so that he could operate a one- chair barber shop, it is not in the best interests of that area of the city. Request denied. The request of Clayton Bainer for the extension of District F. Highway Commercial zone to include an area in the 400 block of Netter' s Lane so that a beauty shop could be operated. Again it is the feeling of the Planning and Zoning Commission that permission is being asked to extend a commercial area to accommodate a spot zoning request, and even though we are sympathetic with the petitionbr .we do not believe it is conducive to overall city planning. ,.Request denied. Sincerely, Isl Ralph J. Kalberloh Sec. , Planning & Zoning Comma ,'Mr. Willcoxon moved that the last two paragraphs of the report be :,received and filed and the City Attorney prepare necessary Ordinances to allow rezoning for the beauth shop and barber shop.
