He showed them new concept plan and zoning planned for area.
Said that everything should be finalized by end of May. That the
City would provide the drive into golf course area. That Kirby
Griffiths was in the process of preparing cost estimate for building
the _golf course and that the Zoning Commission will have a public
hearing on the 28th of April. R-3, R-4, and R-5 zoning was
designated on map. Al asked why not R-I and R-2. Barney
explained that Arthur wanted to ask for higher density although
low density is planned for area so he won't have to change if
demand is changed before he has built. The Board also asked
questions about lighting on golf range. He further said the cost
package being compiled consisted of what it would take to have
completed golf course.
Barney mentioned that he is working again on the basketball plans
