EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Tuesday, May 10, 195S
Planning Commission
Approves Annexation
Plan; Studies Others
The Medford planning com
mission voted last night to rec
ommend to the city council an
nexation of the Laurelhurst ad
dition, called public hearings on
three zone change requests, and
appointed four committees to
survey other requests.
The request from Laurelhurst
addition asks annexation of an
area between Crater Lake ave,
and an alley between" Pearl st.
and- Oregon Terrace. Part of the
addition is within the city.
Election Necessary.
City Manager Robert Duff told
the commission an election by
the people in the area would be
necessary because 100 per cent
of the property owners did not
sign the petition.
Duff said "there is a serious
sanitation problem in the area
and annexation would give the
people an opportunity to get the
service installed."
E. N. McKinstry, city engi
neer, suggested that the annexa
tion of the addition include
about 150 feet north of Stevens
ave., to prevent joint city-county
ownership of a street.
The council probably will
consider annexation of the addi
tion at its next meeting May 17.
Hearing Called
A public hearing was called
for the next commission meet
ing on a request from Dr. Edwin
R. Durno that an alley in the
Wildwood addition west of Riv
erside ave. and north of Edwards
st. be vacated. Dr. Durno said
the alley would be vacated with j
a reservation to the city for an
easement of a storm sewer un
der the alley.
A public hearing also was
scheduled on a request from
Dr. Durno that property in the
Manley addition be rezoned
from multiple family to com
mercial, and a hearing was set
on a request to rezone a portion
of East Main st. from multiple
family to commercial zone. Both
hearings will be held at the next
regular commission meeting.
A hearing also will be held on
a request to change from one to
two family dwellings the south
east corner of Jackson st. and
Crater Lake ave. in Queen Anne
subdivision.
To Study Requests
Henry Fisher and Allan Perry
were appointed a committee to
study a tentative plat of Douglas
addition number 1 on Columbus
ave. and Del Harvey and Mark
Goldy were appointed to study
a request of Homer J. and Clara I
G. Bringle asking a 10 foot set
back instead of a 20 foot setback
on Orange st. .
McKinstry and Mrs. Edith
Eden, were appointed to study a
request from Olan H. and Doro
thy Sneed to rezone from two

district an area in the Fruitdale
addition on Jackson st.
Fisher and Don Root will
study a request from the Con
gregational church, 300 Oak
wood dr., that the site be an
nexed and zoned for, a future
church building. The church also
requested that a church school
at the site be connected with the
city sewer system. Fisher and
Root are to report as soon as
possible on their findings.
Other committees will submit
reports at the next meeting of
the commission.
The commission tentatively
approved a plat of the Mclntyre
subdivision north of Crater Lake
highway and west of the munici
pal airport.
Pinball Issue
To Get Hearing
Portland (U.R) A public
hearing was requested today on
the issue of whether pinball ma
chines should be allowed to con
tinue operating here.
The request was made by the
AFL Teamsters Union in a letter
to the city council from Clyde C.
Crosby, international representa
tive here for the union. It will
go before the council for conside
ration May 19.
Pinballs will become illegal
here as soon as the State Su
preme Court hands down its
mandate upholding Portland an-ti-pinball
ordinance. This is ex
pected sometime this month.
Crosby wrote that ' we of the
labor movement are particularly
disturbed by prospects of any
ban on pinball machines for the
reason that many small shop
keepers, restaurateurs, cigar
stores and taverns are depen
dent in considerable measure on
the income they have enjoyed
from these amusement devics.
He said the machines should be
licensed.

an inch of rain soaked most of
