Eisenmenger's Garden Lots requesting the Council to set a hearing date to consider re-zoning those lots from the present Class A or Farm District to Business District. Upon the reading of this letter and. the petition it was decided to hold a hearing at the Counci_1 meeting scheduled for November 9th and that the attorney be so advised.
