CALL TO ORDER: Meeting called to order by Chairman Williams at 7:35 p.m.
MINUTES: Minutes of the March 2~, 1977, meeting were approved as submitted.
PUBLIC HEARING: At 7:38 Chairman Williams suspended the regular meeting and
convened a public hearing on an application by the firm of Glatting, Brophy,
Shaheen & Associates to rezone 167 acres along Fisher Road from RU to RCl to
develop 60 residential lots with a minimum of 1% acres and an average size of
2.7 acres. Mr. Paul Brophy presented the request, stating that the prelimi-
nary plat plan calls for only six lots fronting on Fisher Road, with the re-
mainder fronting on internal streets.
Several members of the audience asked questions, but none expressed support
for or opposition to the application.
In response to questions from citizens and P&Z Board members, Mr. Brophy in-
dicated that his client - Cameron Brown Co. - owns no adjoining land and
that there are no plans for connecting roads to the east of the property.
He intends for the lots to be developed on individual wells and septic tanks.
He said he will ask for a variance to avoid having to pave the access road.
He said he is considering trying to use power easements as bridal paths and
that developed lots probably will sell for $8,000-$10,000.
The city planner expressed no professional reservations about the rezoning.
Mayor Piland said he feels RCl zoning is consistent with surrounding zoning.
Chairman Williams closed the public hearing at 8:13 and resumed the regular
meeting.

imously to recommend to the City Council that the rezoning request be approved.
