#1 JOINT PUBLIC HEARING: Adolph Aguilar, Chairman of the Planning
and Zoning Commission opened the meeting
and explained the purpose of the public hearing, held jointly by City
Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission, was to receive citizen input
regarding the Planning and Zoning Case #ZC-26 the rezoning request by Odo
J. Riedel to change from R2, Single Family Dwelling District, to R4, Apart-
rrent/Multi-Family Dwelling District, the first 508 feet from Pfeil Street
out of G.Ma1paz Survey 67 and out of Koch Addition, Lot 13-6.
Mr. Aguilar explained the meeting would follow the proceedure of having
the person making the request speak first, then those in favor would speak
and then those in opposition.
Mr. Riedel explained that he wished to build 43 units, one story structures
with brick all around. The units would house families with no more than
1 child. He also explained that there would be ample parking for all
apartments.
Mrs. Bill Harding 408 Pfeil spoke in favor of the apartrrents her reason
being the hazard of fire on the unattended vacant lot.
Mr. Max Toombs, Co-owner of the Quick 6, was in favor as the additional
people would generate business for their store and for other businesses in L-
the area.

Mr. Roy Richard, Attorney for Mr. Riedel, stated the reasons they felt
the! area would never be suitable for single family dwellings and ex-
plalned the need for a buffer between commercial property and residential
areas.
Speaking against the request giving as their reasons the fear that the
entire area would then be rezoned for the same purpose, a density of
people in the small area and the types of people who would utilize a low
cost housing area were:

Rick Toberman

Tim Jones
