(on file) George Turk of 77 West 1st South was at the meeting with a request from the homeowners in the Northwest portion of block 48 to request de-zoning the northwest portion of the block back to R2 or R3 zoning. It presently is zoned commercial. He presented a petition of the signatures_of the homeowners in the proposed area of change. The reason he is trying to get it changed, is he bought the house when he moved here to go to school with owner financing, but now he is trying to sell the house and the financial institutions will not loan money for a residence on commercial property. The other home owners in that area are in the same situ- ation. Bob Purrington said that when that was zoned commercial, they thought the commercial area would grow that way, but now the growth has not gone that way, and he thought it would be okay to de-zone it. The committee thought if we change the zone,. it should be done a block or z block at a time, and felt there would be no problem in changing the zone. ,A motion was made by Bob Purrington to recommend to the city council that the property be rezoned from Commercial to R3 per petition, (on file) seconded by Chris Mix.
