Johnson to rezone that property as described in Map Book 946, Block 2528, a portion of Parcel 6 containing 4.01 acres commonly known as 3574 Vineyard Avenue from a R-1 (Single Family) District to a RM- (Multiple Family) District (Public Hearing continued from October 23, 1968). The Chairman, Mr. Antonini, opened the Public Hearing. The Planning Director stated that the Commissioners had a copy of the latest petition that had been received by the Planning staff. Basically, the application is unchanged, and the Planning staff still recommends denial. Mr. Ed Wendschlag, representing Mrs. Johnson, was present and stated that on the new submittal, there will be a driveway entrance to the proposed church site from Pico Avenue, which would help the traffic circulation in the area. Mrs. Vesta Fish, of Town Realty, 320 Main Street, seller of the parcel facing on Pico Avenue, was also present and explained that there would be a widening of the street in that area. She went on to say that she felt it would be a rare opportunity to have a convalescent hospital in the immediate area. Only four homes actually back onto the convalescent home with at least 65-80 ft. from the applicant's property to the single-family homes backing onto it. Objections were raised by: Mr. James Wanberg, 491 Ewing. Occupation: Builder. Could not come up with any legitimate reasons why he did not like the convalescent hospital idea, other than he just didn't like it close to his expensive home and his constructing of other expensive homes in the area. Mrs. Vickair, 464 Ewing. This lady felt that the hospital idea is good, but that another area that perhaps did not have such close proximity to single- family dwellings might perhaps be more desirable. - 1 -
