A proposal for a new amendment to the zoning code of the District, creat- ing a new classification for limited com- mercial use in areas where residences only are now permitted, was thrown out yesterday for public consideration and reaction by the newly constituted Zon- ing Commission following an executive meeting. The commission has sent the proposal to a number of interested local organizations asking for their advice, preliminary to a public hearing which likely will be held next October. ‘The proposed amendment would make a decided change in the zoning code and is one designed to meet what is re- garded by some as a drastic situation facing property owners of some sec- tions zoned for residential use exclu- sively, but which use has been greatly handicapped because of traffic condi- tions, high taxes and other things ob- Jectionable to private residence. ‘This amendment was proposed to the commission by Maj. Donald A. Davison, executive officer,of the commission, fol- lowing studies of the subject made by 8."G. Lindholm, zoning engineer. Asks Views of Organizations. Communications were sent by the commission to the following organiza- tlons, who are asked to submit their views on the subject of the proposed limited commercial area: American Civic Association, Zoning Committee, Federation of Citizens’ Associations, Operative Builders’ Association, Wash- ington Chapter, American Institute of Architects; National Capital Park and Planning Commission, the Board of A beaytiful dla- mond adorns this dainty ing e delightul gift for s girl Note the extremely low price! 50ca Week Trade, Chamber of Commerce, Mer- chants and Manufacturers’ Association, Real Estate Board and the Fine Arts Commission. “For some time there has been agi- tated the question as to whether a new use district should be approved by the Zoning Commission, Which would permit a limited ercial uses to be o] residential zones now exist, vison states in his commi “Such a new use district could plied to those streets now zoned resi- dential which for one reason or an- other have become undesirable for residential use and where, at the same time, the dignity and character of the street should prevent a change to the existing first commercial use.” Text of Tentative Amendment. ‘The proposed amendment in its tentative form now reads: “In the limited commercial district all buildings and premises, except as otherwise provided for in these regu- lations, may be used for any use per- mitted in the residential district and for the following uses: Banks, office buildings in which no retail trade is conducted, offices of physicians, op- ticlans and other professional persons, scientific institutions, studios and trade or vocational schools, theaters and movie theaters, municipal recreation buildings, community center buildings and beauty shops.” ‘The amendment contains the proviso that no projection be allowed beyond the front building line, that no display or show windows be used and that no signs be permitted to extend more than 31, feet beyond the front wall of the building. Maj. Davison points out that areas which might be changed from their present residential uses to the proposed limited commercial use would include . ical . be ap- the following sections, over most of which there have been repeated and heated contests over the existing zoning restrictions: Sixteenth street from H to W streets, Calvert street from Colum- bia road to Connecticut avenue, Con- necticut avenue from Rock Creek to Cathedral avenue, residential portions of Columbia road from Sixteenth to Eight- eenth streets and residential portions of M street from Thomas Circle to New York avenue. The commission also decided to throw out for public consideration the pro- JEWELERS | ————S—— Z % posal, fostered by the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects and the Operative Builders' Association, that apartment houses, 90 feet high, may be permitted to be erected in 60- foot C area, with the proviso that the bulk of such taller bulldings should not exceed that of the 5-story buildings now permitted. In other words, the pro- posal is that taller buildings be per- mitted, which are a better financial in- vestment for the builders, in return for allowing for & much increased side yard. A third amendment, by the commission for some future hearing, would permit the use of a vacant lot in the first commercial districts for the temporary parking of cars, provided no repairing or servicing work is done there.
