"S|X-HOUSE ROW"
URGED IN A AREAS
zon:ng Commission to Hear
Plea for Modification of
Present Restrictions.

| A change in the zoning regulations
| which would permit erection of groups
| of six community houses in a row in
neighbOrhood Zoned as "A area" will
be considered by the Zoning Commits
sion at a hearing at the District Build
ing at 10 o'clock. November 10.
| At present "A area" allows detached
| semi-detached and community houses.
| The regulation as now worded defines
community houses as follows:
"A group of not more than three
| Single-family dwellings,. erected 81
multaneously and so designed as to
| give the appearance of single unit"
The proposed change is to insert the
word six" in place of three" in the
| above regulation. which would permit
groups of six houses designed as one
| unit. According to Maj. Raymond
Wheeler. executive officer of the com
mission, the change was requested r..
| the Washington Chapter, American Z
| stitute of Architects.
One Of the most troublesome pr.
lens the Zoning Commission has hau
to face recently is the question of
| where to permit row houses. Residents
OF neighborhoods zoned "A area" al
most always oppose efforts of build
ers to have portions of those neigh
borhoods Zoned "B area" for row
houses. The builders, on the other
| hand, say there is a demand for row
houses.
Changes in Individual pieces Of

hearing follow:
