Mr. Houser was present and explained the reason why he was originally denied by the City, that being, because his landlord objected to him conducting the handicraft business from his residence. However, his landlord has since rescinded his objection and the City is now bringing the matter before the Planning Commission for their review. He pre- sented two exhibits of the kind of work he does. Since the initial opposition to this request has been removed, the Commissioners felt that, with proper controls, this use would not cause detriment to the neighborhood. They adopted a motion allowing Mr. Houser to conduct the handicraft business from his home at 4545 Second Street.
