Chairman Norton advised that the Planning Commission 1) cannot impose a blanket restriction relative to tree removal and 2) is interested in saving as many trees as possible.

Chairman Norton stated he did not approved of the wording of this condition since the City has no jurisdiction· over deed restrictions; however,·he is prepared to add a similar condition if the Planning Commission so desires. Co~.issioner Lively then recormmended that the.following· condition be added as Condition 12 to the Subdivision Committee Report dated 12 August 1968 in connection with SD-770: "A deed restriction shall be provided to the \ City stating that no tree shall be removed in a proposed subdivision without the approval of the Planning Director."

The Secretary, in answer to an inquiry from Commissioner Crisp, stated the parking for this commercial building has been based on the basis of the Connnercial-Service District (C-S) (1 space for each 500-square feet) but if a restaurant were proposed for this area the parking ratio would be different.

Mr. Don E. Nelson, representing the applicant, stated 1) he~s under the impression that the proposed sign met the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance 2) since nO illuminated signs will be on the building the free-standing sign is needed to catch eye of the traffic going both ~ys and 3) he would like to See some action taken at this time relative to A-290.

Boyce stated 1) he had met with the Subdivision Committee and because of that meeting had engaged the George Nolte Engineering Firm 2) he would like the Planning Commission to recognize that the zoning line should be forty-feet in the other direc- tion since this information will have a bearing on what George Nolte will present to the Subdivision Committee.3) he.:would"like to get the zoning changed since the income property they have on the property now will be dissolved by the Verde Vista Improvement Project and 4) he is asking that the zoning line be moved back where it was since there were no public hear ings he ld to change same. .~... Chairman Norton directed 1) the Secretary to make a study to determine if there were'any public hearings relative to this matter and 2) the applicant to arrange an appointment with the Subdivision Committee to discuss this matter further.

Commissioner Smith moved, seconded by Commissioner Metcalf, to deny this request to.'modify the zoning line in accordance with the Sub- division Committee Report dated 12 August 1968; motion carried unanimously.
