#3 CONSIDER AND MAKE RECOMMENDATION:
Exception to pending ordinance to place a 25' x 30' glavanized structure
within the FM 3009 Special Overlay District (1212 Antler).
Earl Hartzog advised the Commission that according to our legal expert,
because of the pending ordinance on the Special Overlay District for FM 3009,
compliance can be required.
Mr. Zunker presented pictures and a set of construction plans including
a site location. It was noted his property is to a depth of 253 feet
from the'Fh1 3009 right-of-way. The planned building would be 213 feet
from the right-of-way. The structure would be a well constructed carport
with three sides - there would be no doors.
After a brief discussion, Thomas Yarling made a motion to recommend P7r.
Zunker's request be denied. Merwin Willman seconded the motion and the
vote was unanimous in favor.
Chairman Linebarger advised Plr. Zunker of the Commission's decision and
that he could request a special appeal from the City Board of Adjustment.
His appeal would need to be submitted in writing. The FPS; 3009 Special
Overlay District would be scheduled for a public hearing around April 16,
1985. It was also noted that the City has a pending ordinance, and
granting exception before the ordinance is passed would defeat the purpose
of the ordinance.
#4 CONSIDER AND MAKE RECOP9PlENDATION: FF1 3009 Special Overlay District
After a brief discussion about some of the items within the Special
Overlay District and some minor changes being made, Darwin Peek made a
motion to recommend this item be scheduled for a public hearing. Bob
Andrews seconded the motion and the vote was unanimous in favor.
The public hearing for the item will probably be scheduled on April 16,
1985, and if time permits, the City Planager will Piave a public meeting at
least a week before.
#5 CONSIDER AND P~AKE RECOP~MENDATION: Subdivision Ordinance
Earl Hartzog advised the Commission that the requirement for construction
was just about finished, and .hopefully, the Staff review would 6'e completed
in time for the next meeting.
The ordinance needs to be changed on vacate and replate because the-
Commission is required to have a public hearing on these in the E.T.I. also.
