Mr. Bills advised the Board the owner of this property had indicated his approval of the Assessment District procedure; that it was proposed to construct a hotel type operation on the property, with the entire ground floor to be devoted to parking, and that the Planning Department believed it was important, at this stage, that property owners be encouraged to develop their property.

His Honor, Mayor Gragson, inquired if any protestant was present in the audience. There was no reply. 1-20-60 REZONING Z-32-59 Louis Gold Approved
