CHANGE IN zON|NG
URGEDAT HEARING
Spirited Fight Waged by Con-
tending Groups Over Georgia
Avenue Section.

An energetic fight to have the COM
mercial zoning on the west side OF
Georgia avenue between Ingraham
and Gallatin streets changed to resi-
dental A restricted was made before
the Zoning Commission at a public
hearing today by group of home.
owners and residents in the vicinity.
Owners of the affected property on
Georgia avenue, however, vigorously
objected to the proposed change,
chiefly on the ground that residen-
tial status would depreciate the land
values on what is now commercial
street.
Other Changes Proposed.
Seven other proposed changes in
zoning and an amendment which
would create new area to be known
as "A semi.restricted," in which only
semi-detached houses would be per-
mitted, are being considered. After
January 21, only detached houses will
be allowed in the present A restricted
zones, and the commission intends to
create q less privileged area for semi.
detached homes.
Under the plan A restricted prop
erty will remain such and the new
zone. at first. will contain no prop
erty. Owners desiring to erect semi
detached houses in what are now A
restricted zones will have to petition
the commission for rezoning and sub"
NIT to opposition at public hearings.
the burden Of the change thus being
on the property owners, and no bur.
den Of general protection being on the
citizens associations.
Opposed by Association.
The citizens associations. opposed
the plan at the commissions hearing
last month because it was proposed
to create the new area for semi-de-
tached houses by establishing high
err privileged residential property
classification than A restricted, to be
called A detached area. The pro-
posal was abandoned by the commis-
sion because Of a misunderstanding
of its purpose. and the substitute
amendment providing for the creation
Of a semi i-detached area was drafted.
The most important Of the coming
changes considered today involve the
commercial property on the west side
of Connecticut avenue. south of l.
street. A change in the height limit
from 80 to 110 feet is sought.

to Discuss Harland's $270,000
Traffic Program.

a joint conference tomorrow morning
at 10 o'clock to consider the traffic
light installation program Of Traffic
Director William II. Harland. which
calls for the expenditure of approxi.
mately s270 900.
Capt. r. G. Klotz, chief engineer Of
the commission, in a recent report,
opposed Mr.. Harland's program on
the ground that traffic conditions do
not now and probably will not for
some years to come, justify such an
extensive installation Of traffic lights
as proposed. This report will be con-
sidered at the conference.
Early approval OF Mr.. Harland's
program Is urgent. 1t was pointed out,
otherwise the S270,O00 traffic light
fund will have to be returned to the
Treasury unless 1t is either obligated
OF expended by January !.
The Commissioners had the pro.
gram under consideration for several
months, and then referred 1t to the
Utilities Commission to ascertain it's
views because Of the effect the pro-
posed installation would have on
motor bus and street car traffic.
