Tom Watts representing the <br /> owners of the property stated when the land was purchased it had an <br /> "M" zoning and with the Zoning Ordinance adopted by the City in 1984, <br /> they no lon~er had this zoning.

He stated there was a general <br /> concern for the condition of Post Road but he does not personally <br /> feel their project will affect the traffic of the area. He requested <br /> consideration for MF-3 zoning for eighteen units to be built so they <br /> could pursue their objectives. No one else wished to speak in favor <br /> of the zoning request, so Mr. Guerra asked if anyone wished to speak <br /> in opposition. L. E.
