Talley, Planning Secretary, advised the Council that the applicants have requested permission to build a single family residence instead of the duplex as originally requested; that this was due to the fact that the Planning Commission recommended that the duplex contain at least 2000 square feet which would cut down on the yard area more than they desired. In the general discussion that ensued it was stated that the applicants had purchased the property with the intention of building additional units approximately four months prior to the annexation of the area by the City and was automatically placed in Zone R-l by reason of such annexation; that much of the surrounding area is developed to the equivalent of R-3 zoning and that the granting of such a variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity and will not seriously affect the consideration of a future permanent zone for the area; that no purpose would be served in returning the matter to the Planning Commission since their recom- mendation was based on the above facts which could be augmented by allowing the applicants at their election to build a single family dwelling of not less than lOOO square feet.
