It was decided that the next public hearing on the Master Pattern would be held on Sections 1, 2 and 3. Mr . McCullough:lie The next item on the agenda is a letter dated March 16, 1960 from the Slavik Builders, Inc. ; requesting permission to segregate Burton :.ullows Estates Ho. 3 into two subdivisions; namely, Burton Hollow Estates Po. 3 and Burton Hollow Estates No. 4. These subdivisions are located South of Six Mile Road apprcximately 2,975 ft. West of Farmington Road in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 15. The two separate subdivision plats were shown to the commissioners. Mr. riarsha: Provision would have to be made for a temporary turnaround at the south end of Yeo. 3. It was decided that before action is taken, the plat, should be resubmitted showing the turnaround as it was determined the turnaround was necessary for emergency vehicles until streets are continued on abutting property. Mr. Angevine: This item will be taken under advisement until the necessary turnaround is shown. Mr. McCullough: The next item on tho agenda is a discussion on a possible Industrial Road north of Plymouth between Harriman and Farmington Roads in the South half of Section 27. li: Mr. McCullough submitted photographs of the area with the proposed industrial road shown upon Giem. He explained his reason for locating it as he had. He further stated that the Wrigley Food CompanyMaadls `formed him that they will be able to tell him more specific detai'_s7concern ng he proposed warehouse to be located North of Plymouth in this area. They are also contemplating putting in a rood north of Plymouth. Mr. Walker: I feel that Hubbard Road should be extended to the railroad and not as shown on the photograph. Mr. Angevine: I suggest that Hubbard be extended further than what is shown on the photograph but not to the railroad, maybe 700 ft. from Plymouth. It was decided to take this item under further advisement and after the necessary changes are made, place it on the agenda for the next meeting in order to make a motion to hold a public hearing to designate said road upon the MasterThoroughfare Plan. Mr. Angevine: I received a phone call from Gordon-Begin in relation to Topsoil Application TA-60 by T. Kozub. You remember we granted his application suWect to a cash bond being established. Mr. Gordon has asked that/the Planning Commission reconsider that portion of the approval in relation to the cash bond he would go along 1[10 with a perennal guarantee of the ultimate condition of the property. Do you gentlemen want to reconsider and bring this item up at the next meeting? Mr. Walker: They contacted die also and I suggested tothem to contact Mr. 2803 McCullough in order to make an appointment with the Topsoil Committee, ili the applicant,ilr. Kozub and Dave to go out and investigate the area before making any reconsideration on the approval. Mr. McCullough: I can make the arrangements for such a meeting. It was determined that this item would be on the next special meeting for re- eonsideration and to eliminate the condition of the cash bond and stipulate a performance bond for $500.00 per acre. Mr. McCullough: The next item on the agenda is the matter of changing the date of the Regular Meeting during the month of blay. Due to the fact that several of the members of the Planning Commission are contemplating attending the ASPO Conference in Miami, Florida, it was thought that the Regular Meeting for Tuesday, May 17th be held the preceding week on Tuesday, May 10th, 1960. Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Kane, supported by Mr. Walker and unanimously adopted, it was #3-56-60 RESOLVED that, the City Planning Commission does hereby determine that the Regular Meeting now scheduled for Tuesday, May 17, 1960 be changed and that it is now scheduled fur Tuesday, May 10, 1960. Mr. Angevine: The Motion is carried and the foregoing resolution is adopted. Mr. Walker: In relation to the street the Wrigley Food Company is contemplating I[: putting in north of Plymouth. I feel we should have more data on this before we go any further. It might be wise to designate proposed industrial sites on a map showing the proposed Wrigley warehouse and road also. This should be done before we make any decision on the proposed industrial road north of Plymouth that we discussed earlier in the evening. Hr. McCullough: We could hold off any motion for a public hearing on this proposed industrial road until after Wrigley's has had their Board meeting on May 1st. It was decided by acclimation that we should pr.pceeJ with the hearing on designation of the roads in the Southwest 1/4 of Section 27. The hearing will include the extension of Hubbard northerly to the C & 0 Railroad. Additionally aa east/west road will commence at Hubbard and run westerly to Farmington, which road will be approximately 700 feet north of the center line of Plymouth Road. Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Okerstrom,supported by Mr. Kane and unanimously adopted, the City Planning Commission does hereby adjourn the 114th Special Meeting at approximately 9:40 p.m. on Tuesday; March 22, 1960. o f L onard K.
