By report dated December 31, 1974, the Planning Commission reported that, following its public hearing on December 19, 1974, it now recommends that the request be granted and the Special-Use Permit be issued, subject to a set of standards--recommended by the Commission--being made a part of said permit. Upon motion, duly seconded, and with Councilman Morton W. Lester abstaining, Council unanimously (i.e., the four remaining members) issued said permit in accordance with the Planning Commission's report and recommendations. Council acknowledged receipt of a report of the Planning Commission, in which was recommended that Sale Knitting Company's request (filed under date of November 7, 1974), that all of Fontaine Street situated east of Franklin Street be vacated, closed, and abandoned, be granted. Whereupon motion, duly seconded and unanimously carried, Council directed that a duly-advertised public hearing be conducted on this proposal, including the recommended abandoning of a fifteen-foot drainage easement crossing said Fontaine Street, at Council's forthcoming January 28 (1975) meeting.
