At the hearing also will be re. considered the rezonlng from residential class 2 to business the east side of Fowler Street from East Court to Deer Creek. The i-ianning commission at a hear ing last week recommended against this change because of insunicient evidence presented, but the City Council is not bound ny tne commission decision. The matter is being reopened fol- luwing suomission of a petition bearing names of additional property owners along the street lavonng ine cnange. Zoning of Sundale Village as residential Class 1 and of Taylor's Addition as residential class 2, as recommended by the Planning iuimuiKsiun, win also De consid ered at the hearing, which is necessary before Council action can te taken. t-ianmng commission recom mendation that Rice Street from Stephens to Main and Floed btreet from Stephens to Mill be widened as soon as funds are available was referred to the city manager and the street commit tee for consideration. The commission's recommenda tion that parking be restricted to one side only on Rice and Rob erts Streets from Stephens to Main, also on Floed street and Lane Street from Kane to Wat son was referred to the city man ager ana street committee with power to act. Reauest for addi- tlonal loading zone space for the Modern Furniture Store at 222 W. Oak Street was referred to tne city manager for decision Restaurant Permit Asked Request of Dorothy P. Houser lor permission to operate a Chi nese restaurant on north Jackson Street next to the Roseburg Pet Shop was granted, provided the county sanitarian would approve the location. The building In wnich the restaurant is to oper ate has been renovated bv Mrs Houser. A temporary permit and a 30-day business bond waiver was approved by the council. The city manager was author ized to immediately arrange for ine installation 01 lour bracket lamps with 6000-watt bulbs on tne Deer Creek bridge on North Jackson. The city manager re ported this could be done at rela tively low cost to the city. Business Bond Ordered The council recommended that the Stone Piano Co., operating a piano sales business with head quarters at Fiegel's Transfer, be required to post a $1500 bond un til the business could be Derma- nently established. The company claims its Intention is to become Cermanent here, and Is seeking etter quarters, t An ordinance was Dassed to In. elude Sundale Village and Tu. 'lor's Addition in Wards 2 and 4, respectively. These sections were recently annexd to the city. Again coming up for consider able discussion was the problem of whe.ner the city or affected property owners were respon- sioie tor reminding sidewalks and driveways along Military, Corey and Harvard Streets, now being widened to 40 foot widths at city expense. The sidewalk, especially along Military, is considerably higher man me curp since tne street widening, and property owners are unable to use their driveways. A pedestrian hazard at night time is also faced, the Council has pointed out. and an altera tion of the sidewalks and drive ways is deemed necessary. After considerable discussion, the coun cil referred the matter to the street committee and city man ager to make further study and recommendation to the Council. Ben Irving and Louis Kohlha gen, property owners along Mili tary, were present and stated they felt the alteration should he done at city expense. The ques tion of when the street and side walk grades were established and the legal responsibility of the city were discussed. Responsibility Shifted The city manager. Instead of the city engineer, hereafter will be responsible for the orderine of any additional work to be done by contractors on contract Jobs, the council decided, after some rather heated discussion relative to authorization of additional ex penditures by the city engineer for work on South Jackson. It was brought out that since the original amount of base gravel for South Jackson was in sufficient because of the muddy condition, tne engineer had au thorized additional gravel at the city's expense. The problem in volved, Mayor Flegel stated, was not so much this one issue as to what might be the limit of au thorization on future Droiects.
