drawings O� 't�lE proposed bui�ding, but rath�;r, submit sketches and maps of �h� site.
The Cvmm�.ttee met and reviewed in considerable detail the propert;� on the North�est
corner of Highway 55 and Highw�,y #10�. The pareel in question was rev�.ewed arjd
discussed, as well as the entire corner section of ssx lo�s. The following
significan-t points were made.
1. Th� land is now pramarily used for resider�tial puzposes.
2. A spot zone for the Borden property would be ill advised under
the piece-meal dcvelopment suggested, and obviously this prc�cedur�
is cor�trary to our Planning �ecommonnendations.
3. Co�Siderable emphasis was given to the Villagets detailed gt�ide plan
as submitted by Gerd.ner & Associates. �heir suggestion ind.icates
to us the proper develapment far° this parcel should it be ek�ang�d
ta multiple hous irg .
