Smith, deferred from regular meeting 1977. Rose and Woodrow of January 25, The following report presented by the City Manager: "As you will recall I requested that City Council defer action on zoning petition Z 76-25 until its chief advocate, Mr. Woodrow Smith, had been afforded an opportunity to cor- rect s~me of the more substantial objections raised by the area residents and the Planning Commission. Chief among these objections was the question of access to the proposed property from Mayflower Road. It was the contention of the residents and Planning Commission that suc~ access would be detrimental to the remaining residential property. I requested that Mr. Smith investigafe the possibility of obtaining an easement through the property of the adjacent shopping center and land owners which would afford him ingress and egress other than Mayflower Road. I advised Mr. Smith that if the above concept could materialize that I would reconsider my negative recommendation on his petition. It has come to may attention that Mr. Smith was unable to obtain the required easements. Therefore, it is my recommendation that the petition be denied, which concurs with the recom- mendation of the Planning Commission. Mr. Smith has been advised of this action and may be present at your forthcoming council meeting to either withdraw his application or to seek a reversal of the Planning Commission as well as my own recommendation. Copies of the Planning Commision's agenda and staff comments pertinent to this item are included for your revmew."
