k*. ' � � � , <br /> . historic ho�es in this same area such as the Culver House, the <br /> Governor Oglesby Mansion, and the Staley Mansior_. With the ex <br /> ceotion of the Governor's ;Kan�lon. all have gone through drastic <br /> - chan�es. . <br /> I feel Special Use will be of qreat value to the Historic D1�tri'e�t <br /> as well as the co�munity. . I feel it was a very wise decisi'on to <br /> recognize the Historic Area to be�in with, ar.d make the "gistoric <br /> Decatur Walkir_� �our" available to Decatur Hesidents as well as t <br /> tourists. r also feel that the S�ecial Use Permit will allow <br /> other fir.e homes in the district that are not on the tour but_ <br /> still add charscter to the area to be considered for special uses . <br /> This would also encourage business to invest funds for restoration <br /> and upkeep of these properties. Which in turn promotes the im�a•�� <br /> prove�ent of the nefghborhood. � <br /> � summatiorr r would like to say I.:feel this move can be nade <br /> effectively and would only stand to benefit_everyone involved. <br /> myself as a s�all businessman, our n�i�bors as their property <br /> values would benefit, the n�ighborhood and historic dtstrict _ <br /> would be preserved as the fine end of town it on�.e was. -.r: <br /> would urge you to grant the zoning be changed from the present <br /> � . R-6 to Special Use. <br /> - ' ��3lncerely; __ <br /> � � <br /> . .` <br /> .i ephen Holden ' <br /> 3I�lar <br />
