Show Manila Citizens Ballot to Establish Zoning Guide The Manila Planning Advisory Advis-ory Committee met recently to discuss a recent ballot which had been passed to every resident resi-dent of the area known as Manila. Man-ila. The Ballot asked residents to vote whether they wanted to remain as Residential-Agricultural Zone, or be rezoned to an Agricultural Zone in the County. This ballot was not passed out to rezone the area, but to establish a guideline for the county planning commission to give the commission the feelings feel-ings of the majority of the families fam-ilies in the Manila area. Chairman Neil J. Flinders wrote a letter to the Utah County Planning Commission, and gave the results of this balloting. He also explained to the commission what the committee com-mittee had been trying to do. Balloting results showed the following: Northeast Section, RA-1 27 per cent and A-2 73 per cent. Northwest Section, RA-1 5 and A-2 95. Southeast Section, RA-1 59 per cent and A-2 41 per cent. Southwest Section, RA-1 65 per cent and A-2, 35 per cent. Based on this balloting, the Manila Planning Advisory Committee recommended that the Northeast and Northwest sections be considered for re-zoning re-zoning to an A-2 status, and that the Southeast and Southwest South-west sections retain the present pres-ent RA-1 classification. Of course, before any action can be taken on such a rezon-ing, rezon-ing, a public hearing would be called and residents could then express their feelings further on any change. Committee members besides Mr. Flinders are Eldon Pack, Roy Boyer, Keith Jacobs, Boyd Fugal, and Beatrice Fisher is secretary. The Manila Planning Committee Com-mittee also took up the matter mat-ter of the numbering system put into effect by the county. The board approved this system sys-tem inasmuch as all the streets in the Manila area are numbered num-bered by the county. |
