Harold Bacon, chairman of the board, stated that the question of lake rights was not the concern of the zoning board. The question ,i? purely '"is it a logical development for the area involved." There are five bases for objection to a pe-1 tition for rezoning. They are the ^azard caused by, an . increase in traffic, the hazard from fire, obstruction of light or air, interference with the comfort and well being of people. Overcrowding of schools is not a clear-cut issue, the feeling being'that they must accept the increase that . comes with the development of the- area, Mr. Bacon asserted. Gerson F. Widoff, who owns the 70 acres plot east of Wonderview and between that subdivisibn and the Wonder Lake blacktop, swore under oath to uphold the building and zoning code in effect, should the petition for rezoning be approved.

The" Oolite covered thirty miles 'and took tWo and a half hours* including- the five-minute lay-overs. Three reasons were giyen for the" lay-overs; to. patrol the stop sign at the intersections, to serve as call stations, and to point up the fact that the' area was patrolled, which a marked police car provide, according to Sheriff Herendeen. In order to get the plan into operation on a trial basis so that the merit and difficulties could be better judged, a 1949 car has been' ! donated to be used for a squad 'car.
