tTth Street property to a natural alley, giving clearance on Towner Street for the
<br />in and out movement of cars, for a possible restaurant business at llll W. 17th
<br />Street. On motion of Councilman Hubbard, secc~ded by Heinly and carried, the peti-
<br />
<br />tion was received and filed. Mr. C. W. Poore, 2421 French Street and Ra~mond H.
<br />
<br />Carr, 1027 W. 18th Street, favored the back-yard parking, stating it would be desir~
<br />
<br />able for traffic safety on 17th Street, and the proposed fence around the property
<br />would be pleasing to the neighborhood in keeping the parked cars out of sight. Ten
<br />people stood in protest of the Variance, and Harry Stukan, 1714 No. Towner Street,
<br />
<br />stated this is an attractive residential area, and his property adjacent to the
<br />
<br />Raber residence, would no l(mger be desirable property for a home. John Little,
<br />
<br />1719 No. Westwood Avenue, said he improved his property, and has had two purchasors
<br />
<br />for his residence, but cannot go into escrow until this matter is determined. Ed
<br />Dunn, 1806 Westwood Avenue, stated that granting this Variance would be the first
<br />of a series of encroachments in this residential area. Dr. John B. Hess, 1723 West-
<br />
<br />wood Avenue, stated his property is one residence removed from the proposed parking~
<br />
<br />and was opposed to the restaurant business, also a wall encircling the property.
<br />
<br />Ernest Wagner, 1718 Westwood Avenue, stated that he lives directly across the street
<br />
<br />from Mr. Raber and could not see how six or seven parking spaces would provide suf-i
<br />
<br />ficient parking for a restaurant located on 17th Street. Mr. William B. Taylor,
<br />
<br />1815 Westwood Avenue, protested the late hours, lights and noise from transient cars
<br />
<br />that would be prevalent i n a restaurant operation. On motion of Councilman Brewer,
<br />
<br />seconded by Hubbard and carried, Appeal Application No. 20, filed by Ralph H. Raber~
