Chairman McClinton brought up the question of whether or not it was right to pass
business with only five members of the Planning Commission present at the meeting.
The first item of business was the correction of the January 21, 1969 minutes in
the following manner:
(1) Since Dr. James Mashburn was called out of the meeting of January 21, 1969
at 5:00 P.M. the votes listed in the minutes after that time as unanimous
were'in error. The chairman requested the secretary to correct the minutes
to show that Dr. Mashburn did not vote on the rezoning cases after 5:00 P.m.
(2) Correct the minutes to show that Morton Gitelman and Walter Brown abstained
40 from voting on the J. R. Hatfield and Catherine Hatfield rezoning request.
(3) Correct the wording of the Planning Commission's proposed study of the inter-
section of Highway 16 East and Stone Bridge Road. It should read:
"After more discussion Roy Clinton made a motion to set a public hearing
to study the present zoning of property on the 4 sides of the intersection
of Highway 16 East and Stone Bridge Road and consideration to be given to
rezoning the property at this location to C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial
District, or a more restrictive zone."
(4) Correct the vote count of the Planning Commission where they voted on the
Inwood Development Corporation rezoning Petition. It should read as follows:
"On a motion by Roy Clinton and seconded by Byron Boyd the Planning
Commission approved rezoning the Inwood Development Corporation property
from A-1, Annexed Territory District to C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial District.
The vote was 6 ayes and 2 nay votes.
Next was the approval of the minutes of November 26, 1968; December 3, 1966; and
December 20, 1968. The vote was 6 yes and no no votes.

After the voting took place, Warren Brown and Ernest Jacks arrived.
The Chairman stated that the action taken on the case of Johnie Bassett should be
clarified. He asked if the Planning Commission meant that the 300 feet be measured
from the Highway 16 West right-of-way property line or 300 feet from the quarter
section line out in the highway?
Roy Clinton said that he made the motion at the January 21st meeting under the
impression that it was from the Highway 16 West right-of-way property line.
