The attorney declared the publication was legal and sufficient.
Frank Tusler, owner of the property in question, and Sverard Geyan of G & S
Cabinets were present. ~[r. Geyan was questioned by the Council as to the
noise that would come from his building. He said with doors and windows
closed there would be no noise. He said he had plans for apartments above
but would build only the lower part first. Question of noi~e in summer
brought u~ the possibil~.ty of air conditioning.
K. Kammanm, owner of the property across the street, said he had been in
Commercial and assessed Commercial for many years and he did ~ot like to
see any change. It was exolaine~ to him that this was not a hearing on
the changing of zoning, but a request for a special use per, it; namely,
a cabinet shop on a commercial-zoned piece of property.
The Council was informally polled. Mr. He.~kkita said he would prefer to
see a better appearing bu~tding than just a concrete buitding~ dress it
to conform with the residential buildings. He would also like to see some
limits on appearance as to storage, hours of operated_on and mossibly have a
re'wiew~! and a study of the noise to see if it should be reissued. Mm.
Johnson said he would abstain. Mr. Pfeifer agreed with Mr. Heikk~la and
if there were any complaints received it wo%~ld have to be refused. If no
noise factor, no problem. Mr. [(oehn felt some~hst the same, but was con-
cerned about too many restrictions being ?!a~ed on it, the b~.~i!5er
become discouraged. Mr. Geyan was asked if -there weren't some other
vlaces he could build his shop. He said th~.s was close to his home, and
