If the apartments are constructed, she predicted, more neighborhood crime, more undesirable living conditions and lower property^values wiirresull7~ Selina Nichols, president of the Monticello Park Community Club, said her group had joined with the Pom Land-Oak Hill Community Club to organize opposition to the project. And Willie A. Golden, who said he's lived across the street from the proposed apartment site since 1970, criticized the developers for moving ahead with the plans without input from the area's residents. "They didn't even consult with the community or anybody," Golden said. The residents learned of the plans only after the citycounty planning board posted a sign on the lot notifying the public that it was considering a change in the property's zoning designation, he said. Golden said a petition oppos ing the project-was-signed by 25Berl Street residents and presented to city officials shortly afterward. Another petition opposing the development, this one with 75 signatures, was presented to Alderman Vivian Burke Monday night. "We want people to have decent housing," the original petition stated, "but we feel apartments are not the answer. Most of the homes in this area are wellRealignment "They wanted to put North Hills into my area," she said, "but he (North Ward Alderman Larry Little) as4ced to keep that area. I would have liked to have had it, but he didn't want to lose it." Carroll, the planning director, has told the aldermen they should "CUT 'N S Th# One Place Cutting That Fits Both Single Cut and Mnaa Veg< THm md Cliw Mi Defroet Frozen Foe DURABLE STAIN-RE lb Order, Ptoeco Send $3.90 > Name and Addreee to: -cut 'N strainTranaoo PI?tic Corp. 2S100 Richmond Road OoMelend.

About 55 Carver residents met Sept. 13 to organize resistance to the planned development. One of them, Mrs. Hilton Coley of Berl Street, voiced their opposition before the city-county planning board, which recommended approval of the project. Mrs. Coley said it wasn't the first time developers have tried to get clearance for such a project. *'A couple of years back, they wanted to build more than 100 apartments," she said. "Now, they want to build 96." Willi Kennedy, wife of one of the Northgate Associates investors, spoke on their behalf, saying one of them had to be out of town Monday night and had asked for the postponement. The primary investors are black, including Tom Trollinger, Dr. Charlie Kennedy and Simon Johnson. City planners recommended approval of the rezoning request with the following conditions: The developers must install -gravel turnarounds at the end of Freddy and Frankie streets before issuance of occupancy permits. The developers must pave Berl Street to the eastern boundary of the property to comply with city standards. The developers must install a temporary "T" turnaround at the end of Berl St. before the issuance of occupancy permits. The developers must provide city-approved trash dumpsters. The developers must install 4 From Page A1 adopt new ward boundaries no later than Jan. 21, 1985, to allow the Board of Elections to make the necessary preparations for next year's aldermanic elections.
