e 321 ~ 6/10/63 I n - J p~ .:c e I I e I e Mr. Chatt moved seconded by Mr. Swanson to approve Item 1 of the Committee report, Mr. Warren Coombs, speaking for himself and other property owners, read a statement as to the reasons why owners of abutting property on Hilyard Street objected to the assessment. Mr. Charles Porter was recognized and stated he was speaking for Mr. Horton and raised the question of the benefit to the abutting properties, stat- ing that there was considerable question as to whether the property along this street had been benefitted by the widening. Mr. Porter stated this probably could be settled in a court of law and suggested that perhaps this was the place to determine the benefit. After some further discussion, he then made the suggestion that both parties have the situation appraised by a competent appraiser and the information returned to the Council to be considered in their final decision. Mr. Swanson then moved seconded by Mr. Hawk to table the assessment procedure as out- lined in the motion above and to secure an appraisal to determine whether the proper- ties have been benefitted. Motion carried. 1 2. Rezoning 29th between Portland and Olive, Cascade Manor, RA to R-3G - The Committee considered a request from Cpscade Manor, Inc., for rezoning the property located between Olive and Portland Streets and from 29th to 30th Avenue, an area approximately 300 ft x 680 ft. It was explained that the rezoning was requested for a rest home to consist of a maximum of 138 units, 3 stories above ground level on higher side of property with day- light basement on lower level of lot. Necessary parking space will be provided. There was a question regarding sewer facilities in the area, and the Director of Public Works stated that the sewer would handle this although it was not designed for it. Mr. Swanson moved seconded by Dr. Purdy to approve the Planning Commission recommendation to rezone the property frbm RA Outer Residential to R-3G Garden Apartment Residential for use as a retirement home, providing the property is used only for a retirement home, to revert to RA if not used for retirement home purposes.

Diagonal parking, Ford's Dinner House, west side of Moss north of Franklin Boulevard - Mr. Frank Bocci, attorney for Mr. Brailsford of Ford's Dinner House, presented this request.
