Watson, attorney, 615 South Flower, Los Angeles, .who appeared before Council as representative of the applicant, and stated that the requests for zone changes concern the development of the property south of the proposed basins but do not include the basins. The zoning request is to change the present "W" zone to "R-3" across the northwest corner of the applicant's property, and to "M-1" and "M-2" of other areas of the pro- perty as described in the application of the petitioner. At the request of the members of Council, the area for the proposed high school was omitted from the area petitioned for zone change. The applicant.stated intent to use some of the Rroperty for manufacturing use, and the change from "M-2" to 'M-1" as recommended would not warrant the substantial -invest- ment planned, particularly since there are heavy industries on three sides of the subject property.

Abdelnour, 240 West Foothill Blvd., appeared before Council and stated that most.of the complaints have come from an apartment house that was built when the business had been in operation for some time. It was further stated that it is dangerous ground .to revoke a business license for a ham- burger stand; every place in town could be closed up if that is where the teenagers want to hang out. City Attorney Williams stated that a business cannot be con- demned because of what the patrons do. The ground for closing is not because the`teenagers'are noisy or are congregating, there. The grounds for revoking are that the holder of the license has failed to make reasonable effort to maintain order among his customers, and to prevent violations of law and order among them; that the holder of the license has been guilty of not doing what he could have done, or what is reasonable for the operator of an establishment to do. The Council must determine that this is so if it revokes the license.
