Arthur H. Meyers m ANAGER
A meeting of the city planning com
mission was held last night in the city
council chambers and the proposed
ordinance creating the commission
and endowing its dutlos, etc., was ex
plained by City Atotrney John Carkln.
About a dozen citizens of Medtord.
in addition to the. officials, attended
the 'meeting and listened to the expla
nation of the ordinance and the other
discussions by the commission.
' H. U. Lumsden gave a short talk to
the members of the commission advis
ing conservatism in the establishment
of zones with especial reforence to
apartments. Kxcept for a few blocks
In the northwest part of town an
apartment of any' description will not
be allowed to bo erected outside of the
business district.
Mr. Lumsden stated that he thought
this a mistake and a hlndranco to the
future development of the city, lie
advocates the establishment of a class
distinction between buildings; allow
ing buildings that measure up to cer
tain specifications only to be built in
the residence district.
A double house is defined in the
ordinance as an apartment and it is
provided that no house having accom
modation for more than one family or
having more than one kitchen, shall be
built In the residence district.
Mr. Lumsden brought out the point
that a double house might be classed
as an apartment. He had not read the
ordinance and was led to believe by
Mrs. Andrews, one of the members of
the' commission,, that a: double house
was not so classed when "she , said,
"They don't call them apartments any
more, Mr. .Lumsden; they aro called
'duplexes'.", . , .
Mr. Lumaden pointod out that the
beautiful . and incomparable apart
ments of Los Angeles and other large
cities which are a credit to the resi
dence districts, in support of his con
tentions. In addition to other restrictions the
ordinance provides that not more than
50 per cent of a lot shall be occupied
by buildings in the residence district
and that apartments and buildings in
the same class shall not cover more
than 66 per. cent of a lot.
The ordinance is not yet in its final
form and will likely undergo a few
minor changes before it is presented
before the city council for final pas
sage. The members of the-commission,
O. C. Boggs, chairman; Mrs. Jap
Andrews, MrB. Bert Anderson, Mrs. A.
J. Hanby, B. W. Paul, E. E. Wilson, Ed
Janney, E. C, Gaddis, Charles Davis
and John H. Carkln recommended
unanimously at last night's public
meeting that the ordinance be present-
I ed to the council for passage.
According to City Attorney Cnrkln
the ordinance Is based on a similar
! ordinance of Alameda, Calif., and
conies highly recommended as having
been very satisfactory In that suburb
of Oakland. It is pointed out, how
ever, by those who advocate changes
in the ordinance that Mod ford Is not a
suburb and that the aim is not to
make Medford an Alameda but an
Oakland.
A provision for a "setback" line is
also made in the ordinance and any
building must' conform to the line with
the reBt of the buildings in the block
unless by a petition tho permission of
the majority of buildings owners in
the block is secured to alter the posi
tion of the proposed structure. (
In order to provide "to traffic lanes
through the city from north to south
it was proposed at last night's meet
ing that tho commission look into the
possibility of opening North Beatty
street to the Pacific Highway and
South Central to the Paciric Highway
on the opposite side of town.
A committee consisting of Carkln,
Janney and Davis was appointed to
look into the Beatty street project and
report at the next mooting. Wilson,
Gaddis and Paul were apimlnted to
fulfill a similar duty in connection
with the proposed extension of South
Central. '
Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Andrews, Mrs.
Hanby and Messrs. Paul and Janney
were appointed on a committee to ar
range a survoy of property owned by
the city suitable- for the establishment
of public playgrounds for children.
Following tho appointment of the
committees the meeting was adjourn
