1) prior to 1961 the entire Boyce property was zoned RE~B2 which required
10,000 square feet of site area; however, in Augus~ 1.g~ the City adopted
a new Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map and changed the zoning on the Boyce
property to make the greater majority R-l~40,000 with a small portion being
R-1-!2,500 2) thereafter the Bates subdivided property to the North of the
Boyce property requiring that the zoning line be adjusted slightly to the
East making a little more of the Boyce property R-i-40,000 3) the 1968
Zoning Map shows the zoning line on Boyce Lane where it put all the Boyce
propertylin R-i-40,000 and 4) this boundary was~established because of
a subdivision and this adjustment did not ink.any case affect the basic
Boyce zoning which was R-i-40,000.
~. and Mrs. Boyce were present and Mr. 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 Piannin~ Cornre' ~ n
be fort feet
to recognize that the zoning line should y- in the ~3 d~rec-
tion since this information will have a bearing on ~at George Nolte will
present to the Subdivision Committee.3) he..would"!ike 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 ~ere it was since there were no public
hearings held 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.

'considered this matter and made their recommendation in a report.
Chairman Norton explained that.·the report did not'include }~. Boyce's
r~ques~ for a proposed division of .the propeltry.
The Secretary explained that th.e only Zoning Map adopted ~s the one in
1961 and that one has been amended each time a Change of Zoning was adopted
by the City Council after recoma~endation by the Planning Com~mission and the
holding of the necessary public hearings.

property has been zoned R-i-40,000 since 1961.

of property and perhaps the zoning line could be put back to its
original place and 2) perhaps Sarahills 'Drive should not have been
re-aligned in 1963.
Conm~issioner 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.
