Report #78-45 dated September 14 describing the proposal to sub-
divide approximately 1 45 acres into six lots five of which are

ation and relocation of a driveway, traffic flow patterns and

this matter can be considered with the final map and if an agreement
cannot be worked out the staff and applicant will have to find an

ments A listing of the required improvements was included in the

problems experienced with last year's fair

"In connection with the fall fair and the horse racing program
conducted concurrently therewith, the applicant shall comply with

garding the application from Mr James Young of Laurel Avenue who
