2973 with the following conditions and reasons:
CONDITIONS AND REASONS:
le That a 4 foot sidewalk be required the full length -of the
west side of GeorgiA Street, REASON= The UJAA occupancy
proposed for the area will generate a high degree of on -
street parking which will require sidewalks to keep pedest-
rians off the street.
2. That there shall be dedicated for alley pwposes the
west 5 feet of Lot "B", Block 907, Vista, Del Mar Tract.
B,EAS0,N: The high occupancy proposed for the area will
create a parking problem which will necessitate wide
alleys to make garage space usable.
3. That tree planting and the 050.00 per lot park recreation
fee shall be waived if the applicant agrees to condition
No. 2. REASON: The land to be subdivided is merely a
resubdivision of an existing subdivision. It not being
raw land, and the existing Lake Park being within a reason-
able distance, the Planning Commission concluded that it
be best to waive these two conditions provided the
applicant agrees to Condition No. 2, a condition of
critical importance. ,

ing neighborhood is all basically laid out in 54-feet
frontage lots. The size and shape of Lot "B" of tka
e1i6ting subdtivisioh doesi.not.pers1i any other type
of division. The interior lots of the proposed sub-
division will have 6,850 sq. ft. each, or 850 ft.
more than -required.
6. That the 6,850 sq. ft. lots shall be -permitted as
corner lots in varinance to the subdivision code.

and that the deviation is not severe in relationship
to the interior lots which are oversized.
