M. 952 Linden Avenue Hubbard Woods Trust & Savings Bank Hubbard Woods Meet to Consider Drastic Change in Zoning Ordinance Members of the executive commit- tee of the Winnetka Business Prop- erty Owners' association are to meet this week end to determine what action the association should take as a result of the recent amendment by the Winnetka Village council of the zoning ordinance. The amendment reduces the number of families per acre permissible in "C" commercial or business and apartment areas, from 72 to 36. The association was formed January 30, by owners of property affected by the drastic change in the ordinance, who, at that time, announced it is not their desire to go to court with the matter, but legal counsel had advised them that the amendment would not stand, in court. Members of the organization esti- mated that the change represents, con- servatively, a depreciation in their property of one and a quarter million dollars. The members of the Association's executive committee are Leonard H. Roach, J. E. Winterbotham, R. H. Schell, Walter Bell and Roland Whit- man. Approve Plans for 2 New Units for Skokie School Plans for the addition of two units to the Skokie school were approved by the Winnetka school board at its meeting last Wednesday night and the date for a special election in which the voters will be asked to approve the project, was set for April 14, Bonds will be issued to the extent of $200,000 if the measure carries. One of the sections, consisting of four rooms, would be built directly off the south wing of the present building. The second unit will provide for two gymnasiums, one for the girls and the other for the boys, a cafeteria and several shop rooms. It will be an en- tirely separate unit. The plans were submitted by Hamilton, Fellows and Wilkinson, architects, and form a part of the school board's program of ex- panding the school facilities as it be- comes necessary. Editor Talks to C. of C. Concerning "Illinois" George E. Stephens, editor of the Illinois Journal of Commerce, gave an interesting talk on "Illinois" at the March meeting of the Winnetka Chamber of Commerce last Monday evening.
