The City Planning Board agreed

proposed builder Of a shopping
center in Oleander that in the face
Of strong opposition by residents
Of the Oleander section, it would
be unwise to start construction at
the present time. The Board con-
ceded the fact that the idea is both
sound and commendable.
In executive session after pro-
ponents and opponents of the pro-
posal were heard at the board
regular meeting this morning, the
local voted to address a letter to
Cameron, prominent Wilmington
business man, stating that while
the board was in sympathy with
the general idea and favored the
proposed site on Live Oak Park
way, elections as expressed today
were too strong to be ignored.
At the suggestion of Chairman
H. R. Emory, and on the motion
Of Mayor W. Ronald Lane, the

advisory opinion as an index to

Opponents represented by Pen

and number of other property
owners, said they had no assur.

They said it had been their un-
Outstanding that Cameron wanted
public sentiment on the nlattet
and thought they had clearly DEM

area did not favor the construction.
Simons was called on to give
his views as planning consultant
He related that it is now the ten
dency in the neighborhood devel-
opment to provide compact, cen.

restricted in area and containing
in them facilities for home SER
vice groceries, drugs and even
movies and branch banks.

CENTER
Penton pointed out that he was
not opposing a center, but rather
the suggested location.
Other opponents contended that
other locations in that district were
available. At this, Dan Cameron
sought to discover whether or not
the residents would favor a shop
ping center anywhere in that dis
trict.
The general concensus seemed
to be that another location would
be satisfactory and that it was
not the center itself that was
bringing the objections.

from the real estate agency en-
dorsing Cameron's proposal.
The letter stated ''the company
firmly believes that a shopping
center of the high type planned by
Bruce Cameron will be a definite
asset and convenience to the COM
n1unity.
Certainly no one can question
that our company is one of the
foremost interested parties in hon.
ing that the standards Of the
Oleander section continue on the
present high level, because we de-
veloped Oleander and Magnolia
Place, and even now we are in
the process of developing a new
and excellent residential area
known as South Oleander, which
the proposed shopping center would
border and be a part"
Morton called to the attention OF
the board the fact that exclusive
residential areas in other cities
had such centers and have come
to look on them as essential.
He also pointed out that the site
in question had been set aside bv
his father, the late Julian W. No.
ton, for such a center at the time
