Mr. Angevine asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak.
Mr. McCullough suggested that this item be taken under advisement by the City
Planning Commission because of the three different types of zoning requested and
the large amount of property involved.
Mr. Walker concurred with Mr. McCullough.
Mr. Angevine stated this item would be taken under advisement for further study.
Mr. McCullough announced the next item on the agenda was Petition Z-419 by Charles

permission to establish restaurant follows as the next item on the agenda. Mr. Cannon
had informed Mr. McCullough before the meeting that he is going to withdraw the
petition for permission to establish the drive-in restaurant but that he desires to
go ahead with the petition for rezoning.
Mr. Cannon presented a plot Ass Of the area.
2666
I: Mr. Peacock asked why continue with the rezoning if the following item on the
agenda is to be withdrawn. Mr. Cannon answered that they felt it was a good
investment.
Mr. Walker asked if this property is rezoned to C-2, wouldn't it be isolated and
surrounded by C-1? Mr. McCullough stated this was right.
Mr. Okerstrom asked if it had been determined where Wayne Road is to be designated
north of Plymouth in order to connect it with Wayne Road further north. Mr. Mc-
Cullough stated this was one reason petitioner was withdrawing his petition for a
drive-in restaurant. He further stated that the Traffic Commission and the Wayne

petition before the Commission at this time was for rezoning.
Mr. Joe Vanzo, 12066 Boston Post Road, representing Tri-Sub Civic Association stated
they preferred the present zoning. He felt that the C-2 zoning would allow uses
objectionable to the residential area adjacent to the commercial property. He stated
if this property is rezoned to C-2 the petitioner could come in later and erect a
IL: drive-ix restaurant which would be objectionable to the present residential owners.
Mr. Robert Acchione, 2710 David Stott Building, Detroit, stated he felt this property
should be zoned C-2 due to the amount of traffic on Plymouth and the fact that this
road will be widened in the near future. He felt that since the rrr'perty is so deep,
that something could be dcne to prctsc+ ;he residential area adjacent to the commercial
Mr. William Robinson arrived at approximately 8:30 p.m.
Mr. Walker felt that since this particular piece of property backs up to Alden
Village Subdivision it should be developed commercially under a lighter zone, C-1
and not C-2 because the C-2 zoning may harm the existing residential homes. It was
felt by Mr. Walker that a protective zoning should be designated between the
resiasntial and commercial to protect the existing residential zone. Mr. Walker
continued,suggesting that this item be taken under advisement otherwise he would be
infavor of denying it. Mr. Peacock concurred with Mr. Walker.
Mr. Angevine declared that this item would be taken under advisement for further

foot easement on the west side of the property, but the easement was not shown on the
plat book.
IL: Mr. Harsha asked what was the depth of commercial on this property. It was determined
that the petitioner was only using part of the commercially zoned property. Mr.

they would be agreeable to this.

time.

restaurant so as to conform with the Professional Village south of their property,
but they would be willing to erect a wall if it was required.
Mr. Walker felt if their property abuts the Professional Village a protective wall
is not necessary but it is required if it abuts residential property.

owned by the Citrin Oil Company which was adjacent to the property in this petition.
Mr. Charles •Cannon, on behalf of Mr. Tippett, stated that the Professional Village
owner has stated they might be interested in purchasing the property behind the
proposed drive-in restaurant.

erect a wall 6 and hold it in abeyance until we determine that a wall is necessary.

of their property for a street if it is found to be necessary.
2670
110 Mr. Angevine asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak.
Mr. Harsha felt that a recommendation should be obtained from the Traffic Commission
and the Police Department before a decision is made and that until such time a
recommendation is received he would have to vote Mor'.
Mr. Kane asked if their opimicn had been sought. It was determined no recommendation
had been asked from these two departments.

Mr. Robinson stated if the date is set as suggested by Mr. Peacock, and the petitioner

Mr. Greene stated that there would still be a control over this matter due to the
fact that the property is still residential zoning.
Mr. Robinson asked if the Planning Commission can ask for a protective wall even
though the petitioner does not use the property. It was determined that this can
be done.

Mr. McCullough stated that the developer is curving Harrison Avenue off the section
line where it is presently acc•igna.t7,`Harrison Avenue, north of Lyndon is approximately
160 ft. east of Harrison shown on the proposed plat. It is felt it would be more
advantageous to curve Harrison south of Lyndon to the east to meet Harrison north
of Lyndon but the developer does not agree as it will eliminate approximately six
lots from the plat. A number of street names will have to be changed in order to
conform with streets presently existing. Buckingham street slould be extended on
the east to meet with Buckingham street in the Buckingham Village Subdivision. Mr.
McCullough continued stating that if Harrison street is approved as shown on plat,
the Master Thoroughfare Plan would have to be amended before plat can be approved.

street.

they do not need any of the property in the proposed plat for a park. Mr. Gordon
stated he felt that the park Mr. Lawrence is referring to is the one North of Lyndon.
I[: Mr. Lawrence further stated he felt that the lots in the proposed subdivision should
conform with the lots on Brentwood, the minimum of which are 64 x 140. It was de-
termined that the lots in the new subdivision ran between 60 to 75 ft. in width. Mr.
Lawrence asked what size homes are allowed in this subdivision. Mr. Angevine stated
in a R1A district the minimum size is 1,000 sq. ft. Mr. Lawrence stated his home
