He then presented his side of the case from the standpoint of safety, noise factor, nuisance, appearance, etc. He presented pictures of new stations, pointing out the construction and appearance of the stations now being built, as well as pictures of homes adjoining service stations in the general area, pointing out that the property did not depreciate in most cases. He showed that the taxes on this property would be in excess of $1000.00 against the $186.06 now being paid by this property. Mr. Stole, chairman of the Planning Commission stated that although the consultant planner felt that this was not good for zoning, the Planning Commission felt that this rezoning will happen eventually, further a business should be able to locate more or less where they want to, or in other words, where the volume of business will be the greatest. There were many questions asked by citizens, and answered by Mr. Stockstead and the Council. The Mayor asked for objectors to the rezottngand the following people replied: 1. Mr. Budrick Teslow, 7932 Fairchild - feels rezoing may spread to others on the highway and put a business in his back yard. 2. Mrs. Joyce Trefethen, 7985 Fairchild - feels rezoning may spread and downgrade the neighborhood. 3. Mr. Robert Knight, 8016 Fairchild,- Land is presently residential and should remain that way. 4. Mrs. Pat Raveling, 8000 Fairchild Avenue - Feels that business will be too close to her back yard and would create a hazard to her children.
