of the sand between 250 feet and where they are now at about 300 feet. He added that if it was determined

they would start packing and upon the completion of this, they would begin the development.

Witness our signatures this 10th day of June, 1965.
Upon Roll Call, the following Councilmen answered present: E. L. Vassar, James W. "Bill" Keys,
V. Jay Martin, Charles W. Carpenter, and C. A. Davenport. Absent: Max Luby.
Mr. Harry Andrae addressed the Mayor and Council and explained a problem with regards to a sign
which he wished to place at his new business location at 116 South Fifth Avenue. He informed the Council
that the sign would be 28 feet high on an 8 inch pipe and that it would need to be placed out into the side-
walk area about 14 inches because of the bridge he had placed covering Indian Creek. Due to the constructior
of the bridge and the location of the creek beneath, he said that it wasn't possible to place the sign in
this location otherwise and he was therefore applying for an encroachment onto City property a distance of
14 inches for the placement of the sign.
It was explained that there would be considerable sidewalk area left between the building and the
curb on Arthur Street and in answer to the question, Mr. Andras said that the sign couldn't be placed on
Fifth Avenue due to the Creek location and his driveway, that it couldn't be seen from Fifth Avenue in any
other location than the one requested on Arthur Street.
After some discussion, Councilman Vassar stated that since this was a major improvement in the
area and in that there should be about ten feet of sidewalk area at this location, it would seem justifiable
to him. He then moved that an easement be granted for the encroachment requested by Mr. Harry Andras. The
motion was seconded by Councilman Martin. A vote was taken and the motion carried.
It was then moved by Councilman Keys, seconded by Councilman Vassar, that the meeting adjourn
subject to the previous motion of recess until June 21, 1965 at 8:00 P.M. A vote was taken and the motion
carried.
The meeting adjourned at 4:45 P. M.
