Rezoning Is
Asked of City
At Silverton !
. SILVERTON Business from
fire trucks to re-mnings was dis
cussed at a swift moving but brief
special city council meeting Mon
day night ' d- ;
Two petitions, one asking that
Parkside be restricted to S2500
dwellings and the other! that the
John Small property on McClaine
street be changed from the resi
dential zone to the industrial zone,
were referred to the city planning
commission.
Reber Allen and Rex Albright
were instructed to make settle
ments with F. J. Van de Wiele and
L. Boebert on property damages
incurred at the time Silverton's
new water mains were laid on
their property. j
Also referred to the planning
commission were a fair hydrant
rent and forming ot a fire district
in rural- Silverton. Silverton is
sorely in need of neW fire equip
ment, council members pointed out
and funds in the budget are lack
ing. It was thought a small hy
drant rent such as 10 cents per
water user, be set; this fund would
furnish approximately $1200 a
year toward the equipment It
was also pointed out that Silver
ton was now surrounded by rural
fire districts, as Stayton, Mt. An
gel, Brooks and Molalla had form
ed such rural districts. An ef
fort had been made to form one
here three years ago but the mat
ter had since been dropped, j The
council expressed hope that the
commission might be able to work
out some means whereby interest
would be reawakened. , i
Robert Boreland and Council
man Anderson were instructed to
inspect the old city water sprink
ler recently badly injured in an
accident on Liberty Hill. Bore
land was also instructed to obtain
information on sick-leave insur
ance rates and other matters per
taining to sick leave of city em
ployes. J
