Don Hodson Rezone (Continued) Joyce Celver, 907 28th Street S.E., who spoke against the rezone expressed her concerns on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as being supportive of the rezone. Celver noted that it was only a guide. Meetings that were held from 4/11/85 through 6/27/85 were intended for citizens to give input on the Comprehensive Plan process. Concerns arising from the meeting included traffic, housing mix, and pride in home-ownership. She asked for a judgement against the rezone. Mrs. Hodson expressed her opinion regarding the type of dwelling in relation to the demands of building, and stated the demands to build a single family dwelling were unreasonable. She also offered the piece of property to any interested buyer. Carol Egge, 2814 H Street, who spoke against the rezone was concerned about the noise level of the neighborhood. The fence and landscape buffer that Hodson proposed were not going to reduce noise. Egge said Barghausen had noted Hodson had discussed plans with Planning Commission; however those discussions were prior to input on the 1969 Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The plans have now been changed. Only one small, surrounding pro- perty had been rezoned since the plans. There was presently no traffic to the north, but the ' Planning Commission would like to have access from 28th to 29th Streets. She felt access would cause a traffic problem and a cul-de-sac would not be safe with a multi-family dwelling at the end of it. She noted there were no specific plans as to what would be done about it. Egge also said the Hodsons being property owners for fifteen years was irrelevant to the issue. Mr. Moravec, 908 28th Street S.E., who was against the rezone submitted a letter for the record. Linda Walter, 811 26th Street S.E. who spoke against the rezone was concerned with the deva- luation of the neighborhood. Kathleen Clyde, 906 28th Street S.E. who spoke against the rezone stated that fifty-eight peti- tioners, the majority of the neighborhood, were against the rezone. Clyde was concerned with the rezone jeopardizing the life-time savings of senior citizens who have invested in homes. Shirley Montgomery, 1106 28th Street S.E., who spoke against the rezone submitted to the Council pic- tures of her backyard as it presently exists. She voiced her concerns on the density of the population in a small community. Montgomery requested the Council to take a good look at the direction of the rezone if it was passed.
