The Supervisor asked if there was any one present who wished to speak in opposition to the granting of the proposed changes. Mrs . A.J. Frey of 12 Burton Road, stated that she was not in opposition to the granting of these changes for the proposed veterans' housing excepting that if this did not materialize, would it be possible to return this property to Class A residential.

The Supervisor stated that the procedure now.being followed would have to apply for any future rezoning that was made. He also stated that the Town Board did not have a final say in any proposed change of Zoning because a property owner has the right to appeal to the courts if it is his belief the property could not be used for any other purpose.

He said that the majority of the materials had been secured and the financing had been arranged. Replying to numerous questions regarding the location of the garages, the Supervisor stated his interpretation of the proposed amend- ments was that wherever possible the garages would be in the cellars or would be gr-ouped at the rear of the property.
