Mr. Wilson added that he felt the rezoning of said property for a Light Business would enhance property values in the immediate area instead of decreasing property values if the property continued to remain vacant.

Mrs. Maude Allen, who resides at 310 Southeast 7th Street, spoke against the rezoning. Mrs. Allen stated that she lived across the street from the property in question and had failed to attend the hearing of the Planning and Zoning Commission due to a mix up on her part.

Mrs. Allen stated that many older individuals live in the immediate area and they have not protested the rezoning because they feel like Mrs. Lisman would protect their interest.
