We requested the representatives look into the matters of the 'annexation' and additional land d re® pplo Though Mr. Thompson who has spent conxiderable time on the David Wolf old Salem Church matter eras absent, s d with Mr. and Mrs. Wolf at some lengthabout the possibilities available for an apartment building at this site. As you recall, Mr, Wolf' s original n es s for 8 apartments* was denied because of gross lack of space needed for an 8 unit building* In this new request, Mr, Wolf wishes us to consider ca,&%z/s d ' ( a { ea�a�( c@ GB47v �x L,aE to L@�t, W041UBPC&. geL42 Pl, �1111 ATER FILANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MINNESOTA Page Two ROBERT D.

Consequently, we discussed the pos i ilityof the vacation of Oak Street from 4th to 5th Streets with the 150 feet adjacent to °® Wolf's property for the fall 50 feat width of the street, revefting to Mr® Wolf. This would double the land available and perhaps new consideration might be given the request* Mr, Wolfts opinion is that the surrounding property owners would have no ob ection.se We, therefore, suggested r Wolof Investigate the poss- ibility of the vacation of the street and acquire the approval of the surrounding property owners and re- apply. In the event the applicant can accomplish these two objectives, it will be our recommendation that he be permitted to remodel the Old.
