~~~,F <br />~. G. Bertossi, Said he would like to verify what Mrs. ~dagney and Cdr. Whaley <br />1750 N. Albert had said -that he favored a petition to prevent the proposed <br /> service station from going in at the corner of Larpenteur <br /> and Albert. Recalled that the neighbors were assured by Per. <br /> Kelley's father that there would not be a service station <br /> there as long as he lived. Bar. Bertossi added he would be <br /> willing to chip in his bit on anything they can do to prevent <br /> installation of the proposed service station. <br />R.D. Whaley, <br />1704 N. Albert said that 99 per Dent of the buildings in the area are homes, <br /> that the present Keller store looks like a home, and that th e <br /> oorner is not suited to business in his opinion. <br />H.P. Bruncke, <br />1710 N. Albert Qcrestioned that the right to issue a permit or license included <br /> licensing of any ,business that might come in. Said this should <br /> be oontrolled for the good of the c rnununity. He asked that <br /> the counci 1 consider the amount that homes in the area would be <br /> devalued by installation of the proposed service station as <br /> against the amount of taxes to be received from the latter. <br /> 2~r. Bruncke then asked if it is possi ble to rezone the Keller <br /> property to residential. <br />1 <br />Attorney Graham stated that in his opinion such a rezoning is possible with <br /> a proper showing. <br />George vavoulis, <br />1433 W. Larpenteur stated he was a new resident of the pillage and that he did <br /> not Dare one way or another if the service station is installed. <br /> or not. Stated he had listened to the proceedings and was well <br /> aware that the council had acted within th® law as stated by <br /> the Mayor, but wondered if the counoil had considered if they <br /> were acting in good faith. Said he does not think the proposed <br /> Pilling station is going to contribute one thing to Falcon Heights, <br /> and that it would seem that the council should be ooncerned as <br /> to the attitude of the neighbors - that there is an unwritten <br /> law, a law of friendship. B6r. Yavoulis asked if the proposed <br /> station would contribute anything to our school area or to our <br /> busi ness area. Asked that the counci 1 revoke the permit. <br />Trustee Shaver stated that the Keller property was coned business in 1941, <br /> and that most cities or villages do not require their councils <br /> to grant permits at all - that all permits are issued by the <br /> building inspector if there is oonformity with the ordinance. <br />George Vavoulis remarked. that it seems to him the council could have delayed <br />issuing the permit. <br />James A. 1Khite, <br />1716 N. Albert stated he was opposed to the proposed service station and <br />would like to see how many of those present were also <br />opposed. (A show of hands was then called fbr and the <br />Clerk recorded 25 persona opposed}. <br />G.B. j'~ollan, <br />1442 W. Larpenteur In commenting on the recorded opposition, asked as to how <br />
