Session 589, Minutes February 1, 1960 Page 4 operate the home in the present manner, but does object to any enlarged scale of operation. ~r. Harry Raven, 722 Kingsland Avenue, upon being recognized, spoke in opposition to the proposed home. He called attention to the congested condition in the rear of the property and to the number of trucks passing through the abutting alley and also to lack of parking space. He stated that it would be impossible for the persons living with Mrs. Kramer to cross streets in order to attend religious services, unless they were attended by someone. Mr. Marshall Arky, 714 Kingsland Avenue, asked to be recognized, which request was granted. Mr. Arky indicated he is opposed to the granting of a conditional use permit. Upon inquiry by Mayor Kaufman, there appeared to be no other members of the pub- lic who wished to be heard on this subject. The Mayor then asked whether any member of the Council had any questions, whereupon Councilman Tandler address- ing himself to Mr. Ackert, inquired as to the number of people that Mrs. Kramer anticipates will reside with her. Mr. Ackert again came forward and explained that what he intended to convey earlier was that Mrs. l(ramer had indicated she would like to have a place for twelve, which would be the maximum figure; however, he said, that is not a fixed number and it will probably be consider- ably less. Answering another question by Councilman Tandler, Mr. Ackert ex- plained how the applicant intends to use the first and second floors of the building in question. He also stated there will be no signs on the outside of the building. In reply to inquiry by Councilman Soule as to whether the Fire Department has made an inspection and set out what will be necessary as far as the City's ordinances are concerned, City Manager Henry stated the administrative forces have received a report and copies will be transmitted to members of the Council. Mayor Kaufman declared the public hearing concluded at 8:42 o'clock P.M. and stated that the Council would take the matter under advisement and in due time will reach a decision.

He pointed out that at a meet- ing of the City Plan Cormnission on December 23~ 1959, that body, by a vote of 7 to 0, disapproved an application made by Mr. Jacob Rudin for a gasoline dispensing service station at King Kar Wash on Olive Boulevard and Grant Drive, for a number of reasons, as set forth in a letter from the City Plan Commission, dated January 4, 1960, copy of which is attached to agenda item number 2. The City Manager stated that a public hearing has been scheduled for this evening with reference to this matter. Mr. Sheldon Weinhaus, attorney repre- sening the applicant, asked to be recognized, which request was granted. He informed the Council that he, and the firm with which he is associated, also represent the area wide distributor of Lion Oil Products although he is not appearing tonight as their counsel or representative. Mr. Weinhaus stressed that the applicant intends to dispense gasoline in con- nection with his car wash operation and does not contemplate operating a
