Of new .business,one Leland L. Dysinger presented a pet-
ition requesting transfer of his lots;
Lots 1-2-3-4-5- of Block 8 to Zone 2 from Zone 1.
In. accordance with pre-. determined policy of the Commission
that no less an area than one-half block be considered for
transfer or re-zoning, lots 6-7-8, which are the properties
of Francis M. Rempert and William A. Lacy, were included in
the petition and the said Leland L.Dysinger represented
those owners in absentia.After. examination of the petition,
and it ' s supporting written consent of owners of abutting
properties and those properties within 300 feet, and con-
sideration of the fact that all provisions of Section IX of
0 Ordinance No. 304 were properly met and carried out as con,
cerning such petitions,the motion was made by Commissioner
Kincaid, seconded. by Commissioner Krupp,that the matter of
rezoning from Zone 1 to Zone 2 of Lots 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 of
Block 8 be reported to the Common Council of the City of
Central Point,with recommendation of approval.The motion
carried by' voice vote without dissent.
Followed thereupon a report by Roads, Streets and Lights
Committee, Chairman Kincaid on his investigation to determine
hich streets should serve most practically as arterial streets
of- the City, improvement of those streets tending toward
permanent surfacing being the consideration of this moment.
His Committee ' s report names Bush and Maple Streets as East-
blest arteries,and 2nd and 4th Streets as North-South arteries.
Lively discussion greeted this proposal, not as to propriety
or need, but as to means of financing any such improvement
and as to materials and methods to be used. No resolution
came of this discussion, save acknowledgement of efforts so
far expended by the streets and roads Committee of the
Common Council and commendation of those efforts.
There being no other business , old or new, brought
forth for consideration by the body,the motion was made by
Askwith,seconded by Kincaid that the meeting adjourn. The
