Comments from Larry Peterson, Director of Public Works, as follows:
1) Only 3 garbage containers will be required - not 7;
2) The plat shows a drainage easement across Lot 6. The City
needs this easement to extend a logical distance beyond the
flood control dike and we need to have a written description
of the permanent easement being given;
3) The ditch should be culverted and not left open.
Mr. Tolliver.does not anticipate a future development until culvert
under railroad is made larger. Some type of commercial development
may take place in the SW/corner at some point in the future. There
are now 30 trailer homes on Phase II.
Jim Kraft, Floodplain Administrator, states t
major flooding has been addressed and, in all
from the entire subdivision."
Cumin recommends approval.
Motion from Bus Roberts..to recommend approval
change, seconded by Marvin Carter. Approved

Aug. l7th,1984
Laurel City Planning Board:
It is my hope to open a Doll Museum here at our residence at 605 7th
Ave. We built our new garage with this in mind, and it is designed so
that my collection can be displayed and enjoyed by anyone who carets to
see the dolls. Having collected and studied dolls most of my life I
have quite an extensive collection ranging from antique to modern and
I have some 'one of a kind' dolls that are very interesting. I will
be happy to show the collection to clubs, classes and other doll
collectors.
There will be no charge to visit the museum, but I will have a jar
for donations if anyone cares to help with the cost of the lights, heat,
etc. Because some of my dolls are made of wax I do have to have heat
control in the building. I will have the museum open by appointment.
There are two very talented doll artists in Billings who have agreed
to come out and have workshops on doll making and dressing if there is
enought interest shown. I really do feel that there is a lot of interest
in this area concerning dolls and collecting them for a hobby. There is
a,.,Do11 Museum located 18 miles out of Great Falls and the owner, Mrs.
Geneva Collins has been a dear friend and has been very helpful in telling
me how to arrange the dolls and display them to make them more interesting.
Question #2 on the request form asks if any stock in trade will be
sold. Actually, I won't be a dealer but I would like to be able to sell
some of the dolls that I have duplicates of or that I no longer want and
would sell to get new ones. A lot of my dolls are collectors dolls that
are made in limited numbers. In order to get these dolls you must -get
your name on a dealers list. Sometimes I have to wait as long as two years
to get a certain doll. If I don't update my list with all the dealers
then once in a while I will get the same doll from two differnt dealers.
Since I don't need two dolls just alike I sell the duplicate doll. If you
return a doll you lose your deposit so its easier to sell to another
collector through a doll club or publication or to trade the duplicate
doll for one I don't have. So these would be the dolls that I would be
selling. I wouldn't actually have any stock or as I mentioned before I
wouldn't be a dealer, however I could tell people where the dolls they
like can be purchased.
There shouldn't be any complaints about noise or traffic, and I don't
think the neighbors would have any complaints. there is plenty of parking
in our driveway and along the street from the alley to the corner so it
would not inconvenience anyone.
Thank you,
Mrs.Jean Shay
