The applicant is requesting to reuse an old, abandoned
City firehouse for his own residence. Staff has
received calls from the residents of the area who are
concerned about the "research and development" aspect
of this proposal. They seem suspicious of this
component of the project. The applicant is reminded
that no use other than those stated will be allowed.
In his statement of submission, he explains that this
project is little more than a hobby and does not
generate traffic, a labor force, or any manufacturing.
The research and development consists of trying new
wheels, a different belt, a change of cloth, etc.
