<br />. <br /> Manager noted for Council the item had been discussed at its September <br />e 25 meeting, but was held over for another public hearing to allow the <br /> appellants to testify. <br /> In answer to a question from Mr.' Haws, Mr. Saul said there was a <br /> rental on the property that does not conform to present zoning and <br /> thus is illegal. <br /> No ex parte contacts or conflicts of interest were declared <br /> by Councilors. <br /> Staff notes and minutes were entered as part of the record. <br /> Public hearing was opened. <br /> Those speaking in favor of the appeal were as follows: <br /> Henry Goldstein, 1870 East 27th, read into the record names of nine <br /> neighbors supporting his request. He noted Council had passed policies <br /> permitting infilling to promote compact urban growth, and thus felt <br /> Council should not oppose three panhandle lots. His lot is 33 yards <br /> wide by 85 yards long. The present house is on the front edge and he <br /> would site one lot in the middle and one at the rear. Each lot would <br /> have 8,780 square feet. He noted the concerns expressed by the <br /> neighbors and felt these objections had little merit. The positive <br /> effects he could see were that his family would receive a monetary <br /> return for the property, that two additional houses would be available <br />- for occupancy, and the city and general community would benefit from <br /> compact urban growth. The only negatives he perceived was the concerns <br /> of the immediate neighbors about impact. He felt the positive effects <br /> far outweighed the negative and requested that Council reverse the <br /> decision. <br /> Sally Weston, 2595 Highland, spoke for the Fairmount Executive Com- <br /> mittee. They supported the philosophy of compact urban growth and <br /> the Council's policy of panhandle lots. They felt the lot was well <br /> suited for partition and noted other panhandle lots on the block. <br /> The South Hills Study is designed to protect the trees and avoid <br /> erosion and she felt neither of those could be applied to this <br /> particular division. She summarized the Executive Committ~e's <br /> philosophy of supporting infilling in the community. <br /> Those speaking against the appeal were as follows: <br /> Joseph and Rachel Fiszman, 2700 Central Boulevard; Bob McNutt, 1810 <br /> East 27th; Edward Rubey, 2730 Laurelwood Lane; Howard Bonnett, 1835 <br /> East 28th Street; and Perry Powers, 2775 Central Boulevard. <br /> They were concerned about the impact on the neighborhood, the <br /> removal of trees, traffic safety, and sewer problems. Mr. Fiszman <br /> noted the Executive Committee of the Fairmount Neighbors is not the <br /> association, and none of the members who voted to sustain the appeal <br />e <br /> 10/9/78--11 <br /> 671 <br />
