Gentlemen:
Re: W? of NEB of SEA
Sec. l5, Twp 29s Rg 15e
Subject property is a 20 acre tract, with 6b0 feet, frontage on Court Street, and a
depth of 1,320 feet running through to Druid Road. It borders Stevenson Creek
to the East.
It is presently zoned for business from Court Street Sauth for about, 430 feet,
the remaining acreage being zoned R-1.
Under the Hardship clause of the 'Coning Act, we wish to request permission to use
the entire 20 acres for the purpose of a Golf Course. We believe that use for
a Golf Course is actually more restrictive than R-1 usage, and will certainly
not, be offensive to any other R-1 areas which might adjoin this property.
We propose to clear and beautifully landscape the 20 acres fora 9 hole Golf
Course, of the short hole type,
Thfs project will change the appearance of this area considerably and will also
provide entertainment for visitors.

To Whom it may concerns
This is to certify that we the under-signed do hereby approve of the
petition of Mr, C. E, Koch to use for public use of property the 20 acres bounded
by Court Street on the north, Druid Road on the south, Evergreen street on the
east and Stevenson Creek on the west.
