Continued Page 2. 328 The matter of the petition of Dr. J. H. Windorfer was brought up. Membrez thought there were some violations. One was that there were two buildings on one lot and that he was too close to the road as far as set-back is concerned. The understanding was that a permit had been taken out for a garage and it has been converted into an office. Also, the question came up as to whether it should be zoned Business without any restrictions. Mr. Karon said that the Zoning Ordinance could be amended to allow some businesses to operate in Residential areas, but it should be limited as to type, such as "home occupation" which could include such things as music teachers, doctors, dentists, seamstresses. Or we could give a special permit for a limited number of years. Connor moved, seconded by Hammersten, that Dr. Windorfer be given a five year special permit to practice dentistry at 309B No. Hamline Ave. - Lot 18, Hackney Park. Roll call Ayes-(S) Nayes-(O). Mr. C. W. Michaels appeared to request approval of st. Albans street from County Boad B2 northeasterly to connect with Dale Street. Report from Mr. Carley on this street was read by the Clerk. Mr. Michaels agreed to put the pipe from the street back tllrough the area as far as is required to meet with the Council's approval. Hammersten moved, seconded by Membrez, that the road be accepted under these conditions. Roll call Ayes-(S) Nayes-(O). Mr. Michaels also requested a letter to the Veterans Administration from the Council that the street has been accepted by the Village. The Clerk was in- structed to write same. Mr. Markham appeared to ask about road restrictions. lKembrez moved, Connor seconded, that the road restrictions on village roads be lifted as of today. Roll call Ayes-(5) Nayes-(O). The easement presented by Mr. and Mrs. M. Christensen and Mr. and Mrs. R. Roberts for Transit Ave. west of Rice st. was found to be correet. as described. Uembrez moved, seconded by 'Carlson, that the easement be accepted. Roll call Ayes-(S) Nayes-(O). Clerk reported on a conversation he had with Mr. Bell, accountant for Pure Tallow mld 'Soap Co. He wanted to know if it were permissable to push the debris from the recent fire at their location into a low spot on their property. Clerk was instructed to write a letter and tell them they could push it onto their own property and suggest that they cover it up with dirt of some kind. The Clerk distributed reports from Taylor & McCaskill to the Council members which showed that the profits at the liquor stores are running approximately $l200.00 a month. The matter of beer coolers at the liquor stores was brought up. Connor saið the stores are losing business because of the lack of coolers. After much dis- cussion, Connor moved, Hammersten seconded, that we buy two coolers from Universal Equipment Sales Co. at $7l0.50 each, installed. Roll call Ayes-(5) Nayes-(O).
