The Mayor called the meeting to order. The invocation was given by
Rev. Robert H. Fox, Associate Pastor, First Methodist Church. Commissioner Smith
moved that the minutes 01 the regular meeting of October 4th, 1965 be approved as
recorded and as submitte~ in written summation by the Clerk to each Commissioner.
Motion was seconded by C~mmissioner Stephens and carried unanimously.
The Mayor announced the first item on the agenda was a public hearing appealing
the granting by the Boar~ of Adjustment and Appeal on zoning, on September 23, 1965,
for the Kane Corporation to erect a nursing home on the West 170 ft. of North 90 ft.
and West 130 ft. of Sout~ 90 ft. of Lot 30, Bluff View Sub., zoned R-4 (multi-family).
Mr. James V. Flaherty, representing his family trust agreed to purchase the property
from the Kane Corp. for Lts best and highest use, for erection of a medical center
building on part of property which was approved by the Commission June 8, 1965 and
now a nursing home was requested for the other part which faces Jeffords St. and
Clearwater Bay. Mr. Robert R. Tench, Attorney, representing Mr. and Mrs. Lee H. Reid,
stated on September 23rd~ 1965, the Board of Adjustment and Appeal had before them
the plans for the nursin~ home, but not the medical clinic; he asked about having both
plans incorporated for this Commission meeting. He stated the proposed combined plan
is entirely different than the original plan. His reasons for objecting were: that
the plans before the Comnission change the general location and perhaps size of the
original medical clinic building; they have incorporated an additional 4 story nursing
home; and there is a loss of 47 parking places. The City Clerk read letters of objec-
tion from Alfred C. WyllLe, Dr. Henry E. Smoak, and Mr. Robert R. Tench, Attorney for
Mr. and Mrs. Lee H. Reid_ Dr. Henry E. Smoak spoke in objection reviewing previous
hearings and concessions rrade when the reauest for the medical clinic was granted and
said that there is not sufficient space for the two buildings with necessary parking.
Mr. Flaherty spoke about the parking spaces being sufficient, which he described, and
that the buildings were p18,ced to use the property at its highest and best use. The
Commissioners suggested the parties concerned get together and try to reach an agree-
ment. Commissioner Stephens moved, due to the difference of opinion and rather com-
plicated questions that have been brought up, that this public hearing be adjourned
until 1: 30 P .1!.. on Nov811ber 1, 1965 , it appearing that all pa rties concerned have
agreed to same. r-'lotion Nas seconded by Commissioner Hougen and carried unanimously.

ized to execute it. MotLon was seconded by Commissioner Insco and carried unanimously.
