Mr. Robert Pearson, 3590 Churchill Court, was present and spoke in opposition of this application. He cited as his reasons the problems involved with additional traffic, school situation and the smog and air pollution problem. Mr. John Price, 5094 Crestwood Court, spoke regarding continuances of items on the agenda. He would like to know if some method could be devised to keep interested people notified. Mr. Rich Cole, 333 Mission Drive, spoke in opposition of increased density. The Commissioners had many questions re- garding the number of recent applications which are all requesting increased density. They feel that some directive should be provided by Council as to higher density considerations for developments which have been previously approved under a specific program. With this thought in mind, it was moved to continue this application until November 5, which would permit the Commission to hold a study session with City Council to deter- mine what course the City should follow regarding the problem of higher densities. -2-
