Perrys .
The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved .
Mr . Marion reported on his progress in contacting land owners in the 5 Mile -
7 Mile Drive district . He reported that land owners would probably oppose
commercial development but would not oppose light industrial development if it
��v
were combined with residential use . Mr . Marion felt that there would be no
objection if a public hearing were called to change this area into a combination
of light - industrial and residential zoning . Later in the meeting the Brinks
arrived and said that they personally would consider the combination of light
industrial usage together with residential usage but that they were not at this
time ready to make any decision either for or against such a change .
The use of the land belonging to George Ideman on the corner of Mitchell
Street® tension and Judd Falls Road was discussed . Mr . Hurst made a motion
seconded by Mr . Vassee that the land belonging to Mr . Ideman lying north of
Iviitchell Street , Viest of Judd Falls Road , and south and east of the cemetery
be rezoned to business . The recommendation is to be forwarded to the Town Board .
Mr . Watson will call on Mr . William Barnes who is the only immediate neighbor
to ascertain his feelings toward a rezoning of the area to business .

Winston Court apartment development : At the present time every other lot is
to have an apartment . There will be a total of 18 lots measuring 14C ' by 971 .
There would be a total of 132 parking spaces for the development . There was
some discussion of play areas . The Board felt that because of the size of each

Bear Wr . PenA!!ton :
Because you are using your residence and vacant
loot , on Forest Homo Drive for commercial purposes , your
spplicatirns for extona-Jsng ( l ' your own residence and
( 2) for -- erecting; an additional building on your, . lost
,
pre dipnied Wid.ezDection 21 of the Tama, of Ithaca
4oning Ordinance . If you should move . your business
location arW . from the racidence zona into en apw
proved cor3mexcial district , 1 would consider your
cipplications for extension of your existing resid -
ences as being perfectly proper . However , tinder the
dircumstances: as they exist today With your property
beiaag used for busirjess I feel that extension of the
exi ;at #g building and. erection of. a `new building is
not within the spirit or letter of the Zoning
Ordinance
Because of my decision de4ing permission to
extend yourexisting building and to erect a new
building , I. ask that you remove the Fetsburg houses '
whickLeve been placed onto the. lots on Forest Rome
Brive . . You should also fill in the cellar excevaw
tion bole -.as quickly - -aa . weather permits. so that your
lot is . returned to its normal grade and the hazard
of an excavation hole is eliminated .
Very truly your,
