Terzich relayed the verbal
pertaining to the subdivision of
request of Mr. Morgan Johnson
a portion of Lot 9Z, Audi-
tor's Subdivision
330. Council
coni -purred that the present
I'V�li
ordinance on subdivision of property prevented the subdivision
of a ninety foot lot to a lesser front width than its exist-
ing ninety feet in that the present ordinance required a
minimum of one hundred feet. Selling a portion of a ninety
foot lot to another owner would then make the lot unbuildable
even though its width could be seventy-five feet or more be-
cause it would be in violation of the present ordinance on
the subdivision of properties. The Council instructed Ter-
zich to forward a registered letter to Mr. C. H. Johnson
inforAiht him of the results that would occur should he sell
a portion of his property to Mr. Morgan Johnson.

chief to appoint two men to serve as fire marshalls in order
that the Council may confirm the rate of pay for them.
The setting of salaries for the year 1951 was postponed
