Jacob Hildreth Chairman Swaim called the meeting to order and the minutes of the last meeting were approved as presented. The Commission welcomed Kyle Perry as a new member. Chairman Swaim declared the public hearing open again on the petition of Roger Wayne Barnes for a change in zoning from a One Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF -2) to a One Family Dwelling District No. 3 (SF -3) and Specific Use Permit - Mobile Home (39) on the north 2 of Lots 6, 7 and 8, Block 6, Sperry's First Addition located at 558 28th N.W. Mr. McCollum reviewed the matter which had been tabled pending a ruling on whether Mr. Barnes has an ownership interest in the property. The City Attorney had given the opinion that because Mr. Barnes father has a 51% interest in the property, he could have a lease interest and therefore could apply for the zoning change. Mr. Barnes renewed his request to be allowed the permanent placement of his mobile home on the property as his place of residence. No one else was present to speak on the matter and the public hearing was closed. The Commission discussed the situation which could occur if an SF -3 District were started in the midst of an SF -2 District and the precedent which would be set. Mr. Nutt noted that previous similar requests had been denied, and he made a motion to recommend denial of the petition. Mr. McMonigle seconded the motion which carried 7 ayes, 0 nays. Chairman Swaim declared the public hearing open on the petition of Joe F. Shelton for a change in zoning from a One Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF -2) to a General Retail District (GR) on Lots 3 and 4, City Block 264 located on the southwest corner of Blake Road and 20th N.E. Brad Shelton was present representing Joe Shelton, and stated there has been substantial interest from people to locate small businesses at this location.
