In addition to the park dedication the abovementioned subdividers have offered to donate the sum of $3.000.00 for park improvements in lieu of additional land dedication as required by our ordinance. An examination of the plat will disclose that four corner lots that are adjacent to Golf Road and the lots that are along the south side of Sunset Road have less than the required 75 ft. frontage, this, however, is due to the irregularity of Golf Road and there- for, in our opinion, is justifiable. It is our recommendation that the proposed plat be approv ed subject to andin compliance with the Village Ordinance, and likewise subject to your accept.>.nce of the $3,000.00 offer stated herein.

Lhe refusal of this zoning petition is based entirely upon the safety of school children. If the petition were granted, it would mean that the Central School ~ould be flanked on both sides, north and south, by business establishments. The petitioner indicated that it was his intent- ion to build a six store unit with parking space for 93 automobile~ It would mean that there would be a constant flow daily of auto- mobiles to and from this busy shopping center, and such a cond- ition would add seriously to the hazards of the school children. Case 55-17 was presented by Mr. Louis Roberts. The request was for rezoning lots No. 29 and 30 in block 30 on Northwest Highway. Legal description is shown in the Zoning Notice, also in the transcription of this meeting. Adjoining lots No. 31 to 34 inclusive, are now zoned for business.
