PUBLIC The matter of Variance 46391 and Use Permit 46338 was
HEARING referred to the Planning Commission by the City
V -391
Council on January 12, 1959 to determine whether said

;
1
,
'
r
"At the time of the original hearings in the matter
;
of Variance 46391 and Use Permit 46338 I was not a
;
member of this Planning Commission. During those
hearings I expressed an opinion supporting the
•
application for the variance and use permit.
I
'
I wish the record to show that I have never had nor
;
do.I now have any interest whatsoever in any
;
Company or project in which Mr. Cedric Roberts has
or has had any interest. I have never had any
;
business relations with Mr. Roberts. In expressing
;
my opinion at the original hearings, I did so
voluntarily and without any compensation whatsoever.:
r
I do not feel that my action in so expressing my
i
opinion in the matter before I became a member of
i
this Commission imposes any legal or moral
responsibility on me to disqualify myself from
acting as a Commissioner in this present hearing.
However, so that I may not embarrass Mr. Roberts
or this Commission by so acting I now request that
I be excused from this hearing and that the record
show that I have not acted in this matter at this
�
hearing. "
,
Commissioner Sturtevant excused himself from the
rostrum.

Upon hearing all of the evidence for and against
the revocation of Variance 46391 and Use Permit 46338
Motion
filed by H. Cedric Roberts the Commission found and
; Second
determined that said applications should not be
; Ayes
revoked under Section 9106.43 of the Newport Beach
;
Municipal Code, and that this recommendation be
forwarded to the.City Council.
