Cordingly: What I desire to do at my residence and behind it is make wood carved signs
and of course I also paint them.
Kingsford: Do you plan on doing this just yourself?

Cordingly: Right now with the addition it's about 28' square.

Cordingly: Yes.
Kingsford: Is there anyone else from the public who would like to offer testimony?
Loyd Egbert, 312 W. Broadway was sworn by the attorney.
Egbert: I have two questions to ask on this request. With him having a business there
what is it going to do to the value of my property? Also when is the City going to
draw the line on commercial ventures and residential.
Kingsford: I don't know that you can ever pin-point how things are going to affect
the property values. Certainly the effects of zoned property one way or another will
impact it. Thank you. Anyone else to testify?
Jim Johnson, 1083 N. Justin Place, was sworn by the attorney.
Johnson: During the course of the Planning & Zoning meeting we determined that our
decision was based on accessory use as opposed to a conditional use permit because of
the nature of the business.
Kingsford: Anyone else from the public to testify? Hearing no response I will close
the Public Hearing. Council members you have the Findings, are you ready to make a
decision on the Findings?
Myers: Maybe the Counselor can tell the audience the difference between a accessory
use and a conditional use permit are.
Atty Crookston: In an Accessory Use it's limited to the number of kinds of people that
can work in the business. Accessory Use is basically limited to the operator and his
immediate family.
