petitioner. Mrs. Gay B. Shober, and her daughter were also present at the hearing.1
Mr. Osterhoudt showed to the Supervisors a map of the area and a sketch showing I
I
the existing area zoning. He also indicated that Mrs. Shober had letters from the I
I
State Fire Marshall and the County Health Department related to this site and the I
work that needs to be done before residence would be suitable for use as a daycare I
center.
Mr. Charles H. Osterhoudt, Attorney, appeared on behalf of the
Opposition spokesman was Robert Saunders. Opposition present in
addition to Mr. Saunders consisted of nine property owners from Stearnes Avenue
and property owners from elsewhere in Crescent Heights. Mr. Saunders indicated
that if the daycare center were approved, additional traffic would create a
traffic hazard on their narrow street and would cause a dangerous situation for
I
their children who are accustomed to playing along the edge of the street. He
said the sight distance at the intersections at either end of Stearnes Avenue is
very poor. He also advised that at the Planning Commission meeting, a petition of
65 names of persons opposing this proposed rezoning was presented. Mr. Saunders
stated that there were no parking facilities, that cars delivering and picking up
children would have to stop in front of the house.
-
11-12-75
Mr. Osterhoudt said Stearnes Avenue is a State Secondary Road and he
did not feel that additional traffic generated by proposed rezoning would be
hazardous since the residents of the area used the road every day and he was
unaware that any of the streets in the area had a reputation for being dangerous.
He also said that there is a driveway beside the Shober house that could be used
for parking.
I
At the request of Supervisor Dodson, Chairman Flora asked Mr. Saunders
if the residents' opposition was only because of the traffic situation that would
be created. He said no, that also object to any change in the present zoning
classification, they don't want their neighborhood opened up to future change,
which they feel this proposed rezoning would do.
Supervisor Johnson moved that the Board deny the petition of Gay B.
Shober for rezoning 0.75 acre located on the north side of Stearnes Avenue, being
Lot 2, in the Crescent Heights Subdivision from R-l to RE in order that a daycare
center may be operated in the existing residence thereon.
