CLARIFYING REMARKS: The northern and eastern sides of this area adjoin vacant ·plots extending down Sugar Creek and on which there is very little likelihood of future deveiopment.
The adjoining a.rea(.U-3) on the North is predominately negro and cheap construction; however,
there is little probability of any expansion or this D-3 area that will encroach on B-4.
