Matt Kriser, planning commissioner, com-missioner, pointed out that the surrounding properties are designated as R-120. "It's not like we haven't done that out there already." His motion to approve was seconded by Bob Bingham and passed with Boyd as the only nay vote. The commission also looked at a concept plan for the development which included 54 single family homes encircling a six-acre park that would possibly be donated to the city.

Thomas Mackey, the president of the homeow ners n-ers of Temple Meadows subdivision, sub-division, was also against the development.
