The Council listened to the requests of the citizens and informed them that until such time as a plat was presented for consideration, the council could take no positive action. The group also discussed with the Council the possibility of zoning the city to provide protection from construction or usage which would tend to lower the valuation of adjacent property. The Council was sympathetic to enacting a zoning ordinance if it is supported by a majority of the citizens of the city.
