The property owners asked for
solid wall to screen off the park

as the better sound proofing as
well as for added beauty, said Mr..
White. But the neighbors still felt
headlights might be bothersome.
The Board accepted the wall pro-
posal, and designated it to be in
line with the motel.
Detailed plans will be submitted
to the board for approval, now that
these important matters have been
decided upon.
The Board rejected appeals in
which an increased number of per-

houses where the quota has al
ready been determined.
Rejected was the appeal of the
