The appropriation of $5,000 for the city planning commission, in- cluded in the list of estimates tenta- tively approved by the city council at its meeting last Tuesday subject of considerable di not only among taxpayers, but also within the city official circle. Whether it will be slashed before the budget is finally approved is a ques- tion which will probably be answer- cd at a preliminary budget mceting this month, The appropriation which the plan- ning commission has asked for would permit the employment of two zoning experts, who would be detalled to prepare maps sub-divid- ing the city into zones. At least six months would be required, it was pointed out by one expert several months ago, to prepare such maps %0 that, in the event they were fin- ally accepicd by the city, it would be at least a year before the actual zoning process would begin, The planning commission falled to hold a meeting during the month of January due to the lack of the ne- cessary quorum but at. the Decem- | ber meecting it was voted to ask for the $5,000 appropriation. When the estimates were discussed last Tues- day evening, this particular estimate wag passed over witheut discussion, although it is known that one coun- cilman has already expressed his disapproval of such an appropria- tion, It is anticipated that there will be considerable opposition to.it, however, before the budget is fin- ally approved. Several ycars ago city officials be- lieved that it would be a good idea to zone the city and as a result the scrvices of a zoning expert were en- guged and an elaborate soning plan prepared. The council at that time helieved the plans to be very good but apparently not feasible and they were filed away without ever having been used. The work at that time cost the city several thousand dollars, in spite of the fact that no benefit was derived from the expenditure, 60 Arrests in January Bixty-nine arrests were made by the police department during the month of January, accerding to the report of Chief Kruest T. Belden. The arrests were made for the fol. lowing causes: Assault and breach of the peace, 1: assault, breach of the peace and intoxication, 1; breach of the peace, 4: danger of falling in. to habits of vice, 1; embeszlement by dfgent, 1: for out of town officers, 1; intoxication, '¢: keeping and harbor. ing unkicensed dog. 1; intexication and breach of the peace, 3; non- suppert, 1: operating motor vehicle without license on per. won, 1: oberating motor vehcile without operator's license, 1; operat. ing motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor, 1; operating mo- tor vehicle while under the influence of liquor and reckless driving and no operator's license, 1: failure to pay personal taxes, 16; reckless driv. ing, 11; reckless driving and evad- ing responsibility, 1; reckless driving and operating motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor, 1; sale of lottery tickets, 1: theft, 3; vagran- cy, 6; violation of liquor law, ¢; \'l-' olation of rules of the road, 2.
