The property is situated in area zoned General Commercial (C-3). Lupe Hernandez said the house is old and not worth repairing, that they could not afford to build a new home; but could buy a mobile home. Chairman Del Peters reminded the Hernandez that this property is located in a General Commercial Zone. Elaine Phillips, 127 Briscoe, said they were in favor of the variance, that the Hernandez family had been good neighbors. Mr. John Merzlock, representing Mrs. Belva Adolphson, stated they objected to the variance being granted, for a mobile home. He said they had asked for building permits to develop duplexes in the same general area on property that they owned and they had been denied the permits until an orderly growth pattern was developed. He said they had their property surveyed but a building permit was still denied until the road was brought up to city standards. If and when the city accepts Mrs. Adolphson's development, they would have no objection. Mrs. Clarice Clinkenbeard, 5409 Yellowstone, said they had no objection to the old house being replaced with a mobile home. She said their yards are adjoining and the Hernandez family were good neighbors. She said the road going into this development was part of her driveway. Mr. Merzlock said he would like to see an L.I.D. created to have a chip and seal road installed. Mrs. Phillips asked what the objection to mobile homes was? Chairman Peters reiterated the property is zoned General Commercial and residential living purposes should be discouraged. Commission Member Dwain Kinghorn stated the cOmmission has to look at this variance request as it affects the entire city. He said the sewer was installed in this area at the insistance of the city council and that the city would like to see a road developed according to city standards.
