Mr. William Compton representing Mr. Franklin, appeared before the Board to ask that his client be permitted to leave this storage yard at said location for a period of time. Mr. Compton explained that Mr. Franklin has plans to construct a hotel at this location and will remove the yard off at this time. They asked that six months or 90 days be given to accomplish this matter. Several property owners spoke on this matter and requested that the Board not allow this extension to be renewed from time to time. There was also a letter on file presented to the Board from Mr. Dan Bogich; owning property located at 213 South 11th Street, requesting the removal of this storage yard. Thereafter Commissioner Bunker moved that in view of the action of the Board allowing Mr. Phelps ninety days to remove an outside storage yard at 10th and Fremont, that Mr. Franklin be granted the same extention of time to correct this situation.
