Mr. Alan Rupp, 14338 School Street, Baldwin Park, Contract-

age.

this location is not in accordance with the Master Plan.
As there was no one else in the audience desiring to speak HEARING DECLARED
either in behalf of or in opposition to Zone Case Z-93, CLOSED.
Mayor Bishop declared the hearing closed.
Considerable discussion followed relevant to what the Master
Plan indicated for future development of this particular
area; wherein Councilman Holmes expressed the opinion that
the people involved in this proposed change of zone should
get together to try and evolve a proper access to this area,
not only for private use, but to accomodate fire trucks,
etc.; wherein Mr. Graham stated that 122 people were noti-
fied of this proposed change of zone and that no protests
were received, and that the depth of the property is not desir-
able for commercial planning due to the necessity of pro-
viding ample parking space.
Chief Administrative Officer Asmus stated that the Police
Department cannot supply police protection as it would be
a private street, and that the distance as proposed, is
far short of the Fire Department's requirement. He suf-
gested that Council might desire to include in the motion
that reports from both the Police and Fire Departments be
submitted to the Planning Commission for their consideration.
Discussion continued with City Attorney Saunders offering legal
clarification as to the limitation of Council relevant to
zone changes.

Mr. Henry V. Wall, 1439 Hazelwood, Los Angeles, stated that MR. HENRY V. WALL
the effort the Planning Commission has expended is appre- 1439 Hazelwood
ciated, but that they had asked for commercial" on the en- Los Angeles
tire project, primarily to provide adequate parking for the
tenants utilizing this facility. He further stated that the Spoke In behalf of
property Is right on the City boundary, with the County requested change
being to the east; that the school to the rear of the prop- of zone.
erty creates a problem parcel of property; that to develop
this property for R-2 with a cul-de-sac would cause an un-
favorable situation for ingress and egress; that further
consideration of Council in this matter would be greatly
appreciated.
Mr. Herb Fritsche, 1521 Millbury, La Puente, presented a MR. HERB FRITSCHE
petition signed by the surrounding neighbors in the area 1521 Millbury
opposing the change of zone to C-I, and stated that if La Puente
this request is granted, there would be two problems: I)
commercial traffic would be dumped" on Whitesell Street 2) Presented petition
children's lives would be endangered due to excessive opposing change of
traffic. He further stated that the opening up of Whitesell zone.
Street would be a detriment to the community rather than
an asset.

City Clerk Balkus read the petition bearing 27 signatures
as follows:
We, the undersigned are definitely against the Zone Change
of Mr. Marquez's property at 14001 Francisquito. We agree
with our Spokesman Mr. Fritsche and he is representing us.
We do not want Whitesell opened to through traffic to and
from this property. We don't want this change as they want
it, because having businesses and parking area behind our
houses they would drop considerably in value.
We definitely agree with the Planning Commissioner of a zone
change having the first 105 feet on Francisquito C-1 and the
cui-rde-sac on Whitesell giving access to an R-2 zone on the
rear property.
Mr. Henry Tieman, 14015 East Whiteseli, La Puente, stated MR HENRY TIEMAN
