1679 Nilsen: That, without doubt, is the prover procedure. 'd4r. Andrew Hustrulid on Fairview called me tonight and told me he would like to see all this property retained as single family residential nronerty. I r,~ant to point out that there would be a lot more pros and cans on this particular matter. ~'~e will carry on then vrith the districts as we have them delineated on this map. Take steps to iniate your petition in the regular manner. Vde will move on to the R-3 zoning from Fairview to Tatum, and, as I~~r. Cartwright pointed out, there vrs a slight change on t e zoning map which I can perhaps show on the map on the wall. It carries the R-3 from the d"lest side of Tatum Street to the East side at the same distance North of Larpenteur, carries it through the greenhouse and then goes back South of the Somers' property. Dirs. Labalestra: How deep, how far North from ~,arpenteur, is the line? Lemberg: 280' from the nronerty line on Larnenteur Avenue. far. Sipe suggested additional R-3, but ?~ayor Nilsen said they were considering just the plan before them. Any changes would reouire petitions and it would be necessary to send out notices to affected nronerty owners. Emil .t~nderson, 1707 .This new change in the line .moves extremely close to our No. Fairview: property. A.s a matter of fact, the way I look at it, it comes right to the corner of our nronerty. L:~ss than 2 ;rears ago, when we were planning our home, there seemed to be room enough for another lot directly South of the Sommers' property - room for one more home between Larpenteur and the home there a±. the present time inferring that this was going to be one family residential area. and this was certainly the impression we had at the time we built that home. If we extend this back further North, I think it certainly jeopardizes our position. I would also like to comment on the zoning to ~-1 of the University property along Larpenteur. I don't see any real need for zoning that University property at, the present time. I think a good many things could happen before that property is developed which could change our thinking tremendously insofar as zoning that area is concerned, and to have a B-1 zone directly across from vrhere we are now is cer- tainly likely to affect our property values for anyone who is going to buy in that area, and if it is not necessary to have th,~+„ H-1 there, I don't see vrhy it is there. Dahlgren: V~ith respect to the first question, the original line was drawn further South because tf' Sommers' home. Some of the land avrners are asking that this area be zoned. H-2. Frankly, from our t.andpoint, vre feel there are many reasons why it should not be B-2. I don't think them is a tremendous retail potential dawn in this area. This is a good. ruestion you have raised regarding the North-South line with respect to your property. The zoning of the University property may be unnecessary or ineffective. The University may occu~ay th?t property as open space for the next 100 years - I don't know. The intent of this map is th~+ if the University were to -release some property, then this might be the place where it should be done. Vou raised a good-point as to the effect o~' the zoning on the property directly across the street. '.'erhaps the ~]ean can enlighten us as to the University's plans for this area.. Dean. Theo. H.
