Minutes of Regular Council Meetin�, September 28, 1959 2 • Mr. Kennedy moved that this be conaidered the first reading of an ordin- ance to rezone this Grudnoske property from rasidential to commerciel, that amount not to excaed amount requested in petition. The exact amount to be determined before ordinance is drafted. Mr. Crepeau seconded motion. Motion passed. Mr. �ennedg suggested that the Council should iqsist that a survey of land to be rezoned be furnished witn petition requesting rezoning so that � the exact parcel in question can be easily determined. Mr, S. J. Kranak appeared before the Council, at Council request. The Council requested Mr. Kranak to surface Gramsie Road to Rolling Hills ftoad. Mr, hranak stated that he will have it done before cold weather sets in. Dr. Edward Walsh, 1401 Forest Lane, asked the Council ii they had re- ceived a report from their attorney on the legality of building a ewim- ming pool on Forest Lane. The proposed pool is to be built bg not more than 10 familLes on a lot not yet purchased by the families. pttorney Courtney stated that he had found nothing in our buildin� code or ordinance specifically referring to swirruning pools. If a pool is to be an accessory building to a home, it would require a permit and any problems concerning it would be referred to the Board of Appeals. If the proposed pool construction is not a privata pool, the Council has the •power to pass an ordinance permittin� construction and regulation. He recommended that the Coupcil amend the zoning ordinance to �efine awimming poole or else pass a separate ordipapce dealing with pools, describing procedure and specifications. Dr. C. E. `Natz, 1415 Skiles Lane and P. B. iisl�, 1401 Skiles Lane, adjacent property owners to the proposed.pool brought up several points they woald like the Council to consider before they passed such sn ordin- ance. They did not feel that it would be possible for the Council to enact an oTdinance that would make this project nuisance-free to ths adjacent property owners. Mr. Kennedy stated that the Rzblic Welfare Committee had also considered this matter at their comznittee meeting. The committee did not oppose the idea of pools but could see many pro�lems.arisipg with them. If an ordinance was passed anabling.this pool to be built, they felt.that all surrounding property ownars should hava access to the pool. The committee also felt that a chain-link fence of suPficient height would be necesssry • to keep small children out of the pool area at upsupernisad times. The mayor recommended that the swimming pool matter be laid over until the next regular Council meeting. The Council concarred and felt that the matter will need to be considered carefully and there will probabl� have to be an amendment to the zoning ordinance before the pool can be built. • Engineer Carley was alsked when the 12 Village street maps requested by the Council would be ready. Iie stated that he expected to have them the next day.
