CA 46 PUBLIC HEARING - APPEAL 382 Mayor Evans announced MINOR EX ??-25 - 2530 W. CENTRAL that this was the time DENIED; RESOLUTION REQUESTED and place for the contin- uance of the public hearing, opened on October 3, 1977 to consider the Notice of Exemption and Appeal #382 of the denial of Minor Exception ??-25 to allow a 12-foot high chain link fence for the recreation court in the rear yard at 2530 West Central Avenue in the Ri-PRD District. Councilman Ortiz orally verified that he had listened to a tape recording of the proceedings of the October 3, 1977 meeting on this matter and had filed an affidavit to that effect with the Clerk of the Council. The statements of the Staff describing the property and the objections to the fence were given at the October 3 meeting. Mayor Evans asked for any additional speakers in this matter. John Devers, appeallant-applicant, 2530 West Center Street, stated that there are five neighbors who have given their consent to his fence and that there is only one dissenter; and that he will cooperate in making any changes deemed necessary. E. H. Wisdom, 2537 West Adams, spoke in opposition to the Minor Exception, stating that he considered it an imposition on his privacy; that the times that the one-half basketball court had been used were around midnight and after; that the floodlights shine into his bedroom window; and that it is a detriment to the neighborhood with no material value to the community. On the motion of Councilman Yamamoto, seconded by Councilman Ortiz, carried 6:1, with Councilman Bricken dissenting, the Notice of Exemption was approved and filed, and the City Attorney was directed to prepare a resolution denying Appeal #382, denying Minor Exception 77-25, and affirming the decision of the Zoning Administrator.
