On Jamestown rezoning, the committee favors rezoning of area bounded by Brookpart, Columbia, Elm and Grace Roads9 from residential to multmmfamAly. There are to be two accesses onto Columbia Road and developers are to widen Columbia Road 12' to provide a left-turn storage land. Legaslation will be requested. The Commettee also recommends that Zoning Code be changed to requsre two parkeng spaces (50% gacaged) for each apartment suite, and re- quests that a letter be darected to Planning Commission and Regaonal Planning for their recommendations en this regard. The latest Jamestown Proposal provides almost two spaces per unit because the developers recognoze this need.
