Minutes of last meeting were read and approved .
Mr . Eno:; Pyle , Attorney representing the .Atlantic Refining Company,
presented a proposal for a gas station to be located on property owned
by Charles Collins , Sr . at the corner of Hanshaw and Warren Roads . Mr .
Pyle pointed out that it was the intention of the .Atlantic Company to
erect a nice looking station which will be a credit to the area . He
stated that the gas station will be an improvement over the present
blighted condition of the lot . The property in question includes the
home presently occupied by Charles Collins , Jr . but does not include
a substantial portion of the land presently used as a chicken yard . It
was feared that the Junk;E the lot might accumulate on the unsold portion .
The parcel proposed for sale to the Atlantic Company is 450 ' on Warren Road
and 200 ' on Hanshaw Road .
The Board expressed the feeling that the corner was possibly suitable
for a shopping center but that they did not feel that they could recommend
a zoning change from " residential " to "business " if it were to include
only a portion of the total parcel owned by Mr . Collins . Mr . Pyle was
advised to consult with Collins and the Atlantic Company to determine if
the whole parcel could be purchased and improved . Mr . Pyle filed a copy
of the plot plan of hU original proposal .
Mr . L . Liberman , owner of a substantial tract of land along the east
shore of the .Lake , in the area where the Cayuga Heights sewage treatment
plant will be located , presented a proposal for rezoning of the land from
" besidential " to " business . " He pointed out that the sewage treatment
plant will reduce the value of the land as residential building lots . He
did not specifically have a concrete proposal for development of the land
for business :purposes but talked vaguely about possibly a motel on the
property known as the "Salt Block " , a gas station and other possible uses .

proposed for zoning change is marked in color:

and adopted that the Board recommend. that the Town Board give consideration
to rezoning of the land as identified on the plan from "residential " to
"business . " Mr . Gordon will convey this motion to the Town Board .
