Director of Planning Bills stated that both the Planning Commission and the Planning Staff recommended approval of this application but noted that in view of the irregular shape of the lots, the lack of alley access and an existing utility easement crossing the lots, it appeared likely that in processing building permit applications it might be necessary to restrict the number of units to something less than the 16 units, which this zoning would allow on these four lots. Commissioner Fountain moved that the application of Val Bissonnette for the reclassification of property generally located on the north side of Encanto Drive between McWilliams and 9th Streets, and south of Cashman Field, legally described as Lots 3 -6, Block 4., Biltmore Addition No. 3, from R-1 to R-3 be approved as recommended by the Planning Commission and the City Attorney instructed to prepare the necessary ordinance amendment.
