' August 16, 1948 Hearing on Rezoning, Continued 355, 356, 357, 358, Richmond Addition. Mr. S. F. Carmean, Westwood Hills Road spoke first and asked whose action started this. He said that at a meeting at the Eliot School sometime ago, the matter was discussed and settled. Al Myers, owner of Lots 112, 113, 115, 116 said he was in favor of the rezoning. Roy Warzetha, 1456 Idaho Avenue said he had made a survey and found all + - opposed ,to the rezoning. Wm. Williams, 1344 Kentucky Avenue said that he felt the people should have their say. He owns several lots, but is opposed to re- zoning them. Sam Pegors, 1358 Kentucky Avenue said that allover rezoning should be denied. He believes that the corner of Louisiana Avenue should be Commercial --- also stated that Richmond Addition deeds carry a statement that there is no commercial property except lots now so zoned. Said most of the property is so constructed that it would take much piling before any buildings could be built. Trustee Bolmgren mentioned that the Golden Valley side of Wayzata Boule- vard is all commercial now. Carl Johnson said he understood this to be correct; also said 10 foot footing would be sufficient. Another person asked if we were going to have the same setup on Wayzata Boulevard as we have on Excelsior Boule- vard. Jack Lash, 1353 Jersey Avenue said many people purchased lots in Rich- mond Addition for homes and do not want the proposed rezoning.' Mr. M. B. Mankins, 7300 West 14th Street said it would be an improvement to have Commercials, where they can purchase goods --- does not feel that it would harm his property. M. P. Johnson said that proposed rezoning would take in one half of his property --- said folks buying lots ask where the stores are. He feels that there should be a whorthwile business section nearby. Mrs. Carmean said there is ample property for Commercial. B. J. Koelfgren, 1332 Kentucky Avenue said it isn't unhandy for shoppers and is against the rezoning. Earl Mc Clay, 7306 West 14th Street said he would like to see a shopping center in the vicinity of Texas to Louisiana Avenues, and feels everyone on 14th Street would be in favor of it. Mr. Williams called attention to lack of trade at nearby grocery store made it necessary to close up and now there is a restaurant in the building. Mr. Pegors feels there are enough enterprises now. Mrs. C. Ward Clarke suggested that the Planning Commission come out and make a study of situation and see the lack of need for Commercial zoning --- said she has no trouble getting her needs. C. Warde Clarke seconded his wife's remarks, and feels that there are sufficient corners for shops needed. Elmer Foss of 'Texas Avenue said the Louisiana Avenue corner should take care of needs and he is against the overall rezoning. Trustee Jorvig said he could not recall any requests for any particular business coming to the Planning Commission, but it was of the impression that the majority of the Planning Commission were for it. Mr. Pegors feels that Morten Arneson is in favor of it being rezoned. M. P. Johnson said that Wayzata Boulevard is a speedway and believes a row of stores would be better than the spot zoning now in effect. Ward Clarke asked about the new boulevard and said that the new part would be on the North side of the Highway and feels that it would work against the business' that were left there. Chas. I. Olson, '1816 Maryland Avenue said he was in favor of a business section. Mr. Sibell said he owns 500 feet between W. D. G. Y. Radio Station and Pennsylvania Avenue and is in favor of rezoning to Commercial. Clerk Justad suggested that the matter be referred back to the Planning Commission and call a joint meeting of the Village Council, the Planning Commission and interested residents, and discuss the matter together. On motion of Clerk Justad, seconded by Trustee Bolmgren, the above matter was referred to the Planning Commission for a joint meeting with the Village Council and any interested residents from the Northside for further discussion, by unanimous vote of Council Members present.
