Mr. Damon said he presently owns one acre andhas a purchase agreement:rnifh the landowner to the south who owns 6 /10ths of an acre. He noted that all the property owners to the south are at the meeting tonight and would like to rezone to General Business. Mrs. Klaus spoke regarding the illegality of spot zoning. At the Planning & Zoning Seminar this winter she learned that spot zoning is illegal. Mr. Cody said there is some comment in judicial decisions, not by statute. The City council would have a hard time upholding a spot rezone. Mr. Damon withdrew his request for a rezone so that all the landowners in that area can get together and present one petition for a rezone to General Business with a minimum of five to ten acres.
