Catena erttr-Ooar City 'Miszoning' pf by Realtor Bert Preseott, member of the 'Eugene Realty Board, made a I. plea before board members at the Thursday luncheon meeting for ' tome ' concerted action by ' the board to correct "miszoning of t vital areas within Eugene's city 'limits." is "We of the realty board are the 'natural zoners of the commun ally," Preseott said. "If we, who ''study land and its uses, aren't the 'best qualified to recommend cor rect zoning, then who is?" . Preseott cited the land along vthe Oregon Electric and Southern : Pacific lines, now zoned to elim inate the business "that should naturally flourish there." Proper zoning of the land with- Jn the city limits, in order to al i'low light and heavy industry to -.grow up "where it should grow v and be encouraged," would do much, according to Preseott,. to '("reduce the tax rate in Eugene." Preseott demanded a rcstudy of ;"the natural light and heavy In dustry areas in the city" and he 'asked James Rodman Sr., and Fay Bennett to help in making a : survey to be presented to the city 'planning commission as a realty 'board recommendation. -' Russell Maxfield, not a board member, attended the meeting land introduced a petition asking .that Thirteenth Ave. E. be kept 'open at all times, even during the 'university class changes, at which time the street is now closed, as traffic ' is rerouted, through '.Eleventh Ave. E.
