Jim Venus, 7723 N.E. 55th Street, K. C., Mo. 64119, presented application for
automobile body and fender repair business at 4141 Riverside Drive. This is in the
old Downs building. He says he usually has 15 to 18 cars he is working on, and they
will not be in view from No. 9 Highway. He said should anyone complain about this
being an "eye sore" he would be willing to fence the area. The application was ap-
proved and there would be no fee since this was a request for transfer of license
from his other place of business.
John Krems, Route 2, Smithville, Missouri, presented application for Doughboy
Doughnuts, 2642 N.W. Platte Road, said application was approved subject to the payment
of the-fee.
Messrs. Charles Hevalow and Jess Hunt of Special Road District wanted to let the
Cityknow that the construction of Northwood Road would cost more than the $24,000
which they originally thought it would cost. They also said they would need more
work right of way on both sides of the road. It was the consensus of the Board that
the Clarks would be agreeable and also it was felt the person owning the property
on the west would be agreeable. However, it would be a matter for the Special Road
District to handle the permission from the owners of the property on the west side.
James Maidhof, Identifiction Sign, Inc. 940 Osage, Kansas City, Kansas, presented
appliction for signs at Rivermont Apartments and Chateau D'Mons. (West present this
portion of meeting). A discussion was had concerning the four applications. The
4' x 8' sign for Rivermont not approved. The 2' x 3' Chateau D'Mons will be approved
if moved 13' from the curb. The 8' x 32' Rivermont sign seen from I-635, approval
was given for repainting the sign, however Mr. Maidhof is to notify Mr. Huet and his
attorney that the City will need to be named as an additional insured and a copy of
the certificate of insurance be furnished to the City. The 4' x 6' Chateau D'Mons
sign seen from Vivian was not approved. (When the property title changes this will
not be approved again).

on behalf of Ratan Enterprises, Inc., for liquor license at the Skyline Lounge, 5100
