Absent: Commissioner Jarrett, Commissioner Whipple stated that after due consideration the Board finds the following to be facts and therefore moves that the application of Paradise Groves Inc. for rezoning of Lots 1 to 43 of the proposed Paradise Groves Subdivision from R-l to R-2 be approved: 1, The development of all areas available with utilities for expansion with least interference to existing improvements is an immediate need and constitutes a present emergency. 2. There is an unliklihood of any development in this area without rezoning, due to inability for financing R-l next to commercial zoning. 3. The same type of construction now proposed exists adjacent to the commercial zone, south of Oakey Boulevard with similar street alignments and improvements, and constitutes an area in which neither this Board nor the Public has had any complaints. 4. The development of adjacent areas will be helped rather than hindered or damaged by approval of this tract. 5. The new plat of adjacent property will provide an adequate system of connecting streets to main business, school and church sites, and through arteries. 6. The plan follows principles of good planning within out capacity to realize at this time.
