$360000 to the City, the present property was an eyesore and he felt the people in Folwell
Heights would be:�much happier after they saw how this would improve the area; he said as far
as traffic problems he did not think they would be any worse than any other place in the City.
Mr. George Pougiales, Attorney for the petitioner, gave a short history of the property, he
said it has been in the process of annexation and zone change for quite come time, before it
was annexed it was zoned commercial in the County and then when it was annexedsas residential
with a conditional use and the owners did not -feel they wanted to spend a lot of money on it
unless the zone change wa's approved; he said there was some 75,000 square feet here, it is now
just a hole and no one would dink of building a high rise in a hole, the present use is
undoubtedly obnoxious to the people around and there have been peititionsagaina: the present
use, you have to find an economically sensible ,program; he said they now have the people with
the intestinal fortifute to tacke this program and urged'that the Council go along with the
zone change so they could go ahead with their plans. Mr. Jack Brady of 617 Folwell Lane S.W.

representative of the Second Ward he had a change to talk with both the petitioner and those
!opposed and had listened to arguments presented by both sides and both are to be commended for i
(.presenting straighforward information, but he said he thinks:those sitting on the Council
have to take a good hard look at the things that pertain not only to their ward but to the
!City as a whole and not just limit their views to one area or one segment and would have to
i
say that with the arguments presented by those against the zone change there is a possibility
of high rise, loss of view and safety on the corner of 6th and 18th and he is concerned about
this, but he said we are only talking the increase of about 30 units and with the -increase `
of tax base and renewal bound to come about in this area, and after weighing both arguments i
he said he had to lean toward the zone change and that is why he voted in favor of it. There
was no one else present wishing to be heard so President DeVries closed the hearing.

i
1�in downtown Rochester, he said he disagrees with the statement that parking 'Will be taken

help them with and suggested that some member of the Council sit in on this committee as a •
ti
Igo between so as to keep up to date on their problems, also the City has powers of eminent
�I
;!domain and some of the City property is being used for parking now; he said he thought it was
