Approves Annexation
10.9 Acre Tract Land
Franzen Advises
Gronp to Add
To City
By DOUGLAS SEYMOUR
Capital Journal Writer
Members of the Salem Planning
Commission gave their approval
Tuesday night to the proposed an
nexation of 10.92 acres into Hie
city.
All of the owners of the area
signed the petition to bring the
property Into the city so an elec
tion in the district will not be
needed. The tract is located east
1 of the Oregon State Fairgrounds
south of Silverton road and ajoins
(he site of the future junior high
school next to Washington school.
In recommending the area be
taken into the city the Plats and
Subdivision Committee of the Com
mission noted that sower and wa
ter trunk lines are available to
serve the area and that cost of
laying the lines in the tract would
be borne by the property owners
end not the city.
Only cost to the city in the proj
ect would come from fire and po
lice protection, cost of intersec
tions and street lights, it was point
ed out.
Take In Small Areas
City Manager J. L. Franzen. in
speaking of annexation of outside
areas, said that there should be
some annexation in progress all of
the time. He said It was preferable
to take in small areas, such as the
one being discussed, because they
could be moro easily assimilated
into the city.
The city manager explained that
there is very little area left inside
of the city which can be developd
for housing and that if the city Is
to grow, it must take in the addi
tional areas.
"If annexations are not in prog
ress right along the progress of the
city will be stifled, Franzen said
In passing on its recommenda
tion to the city council the com
mission noted that while it is not
the policy to favor annexation of
a tract with such an irregular
boundary under he circumstances
there is no objection to this annex
ation. Two Variances Approved
The commission also approved,
following public hearings, two var
iances. Carroll II. Erlandson was given
permission to construct a duplex
on Davidson Street on the third lot
south of Wilbur Street and Her
man C. Fcddcrn was given a vari
ance to build a three unit dwelling
on Summer Street between Ship
ping and Hood Streets.
Only objection to cither request
came from 6, L. Fritz, 930 Cross
Street, who had mailed a remon
stranco protesting the duplex proj
ect on Davidson Street saying it
would reduce property values in
the area.
Final approval was given by the
commission to the plat for Liberty
Garden Annex No. I which is lo
cated north of Liberty Gardens on
the north side of Boone Itond, a
half mile east of Liberty Road.
The plat includes 12 lots varying
from 10,000 to 12,600 feet on a four
acre tract. Developer of the proj-,
ect is Felix E. Hiedcl.
Present at the meeting was F.
W. Gibson, who was seeking a var
iance setback for an Associated
Oil service station at 17th and
Market Streets. He was told to file
the variance request with the city
recorder and that the matter
would come before the commis
sion. Members of the commission also
discussed informally the need for
acquiring property to extend some
access streets. A committee will
prepare a priority list to submit
to the commission.
