those present who opposed the rezoning to speak.
• Philip Bashor at 5 West Trenton submitted a petition in protest of the rezoning
of lots 1 through 10 of the Park Village Addition. He stated he had talked to
several home owners in the area, and the majority felt the proposed rezoning was
undesirable. A parking problem exists at the present, and if professional offices
were permitted in the area, the parking problem would be greater. The property
owners now have contral and a voice in the remodeling of a non -conforming building,
but if the area were rezoned to R -P Professional Office Residential District, the
property owners would no longer have any control or voice in the remodeling.
Buell Woods at 9 East Trenton felt the area would not be suitable for the proposed
R -P Professional Office Residential District.
