Scherer Industrial Tract TENTATIVE MAP — South 5th Street Property Tract #1 RESOLUTION - Accepting Deed Motion seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried by the following vote: Commissioners Bates, Clark, Corradetti and His Honor voting aye; noes, none. Absent: Commissioner Baskin. Under date of May 28, 1946, Mr. F. C. Carpenter petitioned the Board for permission to move the Baptist Church building into Fire Zone No. 2 and this matter was referred by this Board to the Planning Commission. Under date of June 26, 1946 the Planning Commission made the following recommendations: OFFICE OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners, City Hall, Las Vegas, Nevada Re: Petition, F. C. Carpenter Gentlemen: The attached letter of F. C. Carpenter, requesting the removal of a non-conforming structure at the NE corner of Seventh & Ogden Streets was referred to this Commission for recommendation. This matter was considered at a regular meeting of the Joint Planning Commission June 25, 1946. The joint Planning Commission recommends that no exceptions be made to the Fire Zone Ordinance at any time. Further, that such exceptions could not be made unless the ordinance covering the same were amended; amendments for individuals would constitute discrimination and inconsistent development which would impair the benefits obtained by adhering to the established plan and regulations. We regret that our opinion does not assist Mr. Carpenter in this particular case but must base our opinion in respect to the general welfare of the community.
