#1 CALL TO ORDER
Chairman Aguilar called the Special Session to order at 6:53 PM.
#2 RECOMMENDATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL ON ZC-26
Chairman Aguilar clarified the procedures set forth in the Zoning
Ordinance.
Mr. Sharp pointed out the pros and cons stated at the Public Hearing.
He also stated that Live Oak Road will develope so will FM 3009, that
the Citizens did not oppose the apartments, but oppose the location,
that he could not see anything against Mr. Riedel's present plans for
apartments as compare to what was presented before and that by re-
zoning we would not loose control if the Zoning and Building Codes
are enforced.
Mr. Greenwald pointed out that the traffic from the apartment would
be coming out on Pfeil Street and that the elememtary school play-
ground was not fenced.
Mr. Willman stated that there is 9 acres that has been divided into
3-3 acre tracts. This kind of eliminated the R-2 Zoning. I have
figured out 6 homes per 3 acres. The cul-de-sac will have to be
50 feet. I doubt if contractors will build 6 homestbere at today's
cost. We should look at the 9 acres for the best land use for the
area for the City as a whole.

Chairman Aguilar pointed out that whether we want to or not, we are
going to progress and that the current zoning is not doing anyone
any good the way it is. He also stated that this vote would prob-
ably set a precedent for the remaining acreage.
Mr. Sharp moved to recommend to the City Council to rezone the
first 508 feet from Pfeil Street out of the G. Malpaz Survey 67
and out of Koch Addition, Lot 13-16, Block 6, from R-2, Single-
Family Dwelling District to R-4, Apartment/Multi-Family Dwelling
District. Mr. Willman seconded the motion.

Mr. Linebarger and Mr. Greenwald
#3 PRE-APPLICATION CONFERENCE - Oak Forest Unit IV, Coy Simmons
Mr. Simmons stated that he would prefer to widen Lazy Oak Lane
to building cul-de-sacs. He wants to construct houses on the
lots with the least amount of damage to the trees.
Mr. Simmons was asked how he plans to run a sewer line uphill to
the sewer main on Lazy Oak Lane. Mr. Simmons stated that he be-
leived that the sewer line was deep enough not to present any
problems of connecting lines from the lots.
There will be 8 lots with approximately 249 trees.
Mr. Simmons made reference to the variance granted Unit IV in
March 13, 1979 Planning and Zoning Minutes. Chairman Aguilar
pointed out that the variance was granted when Mr. Simmons had
proposed 15 lots at the time for Garden Homes and that Garden
Homes were not provided for in the Zoning Ordinance at that time.
The Commission then convey to Mr. Simmons that so far what he
had said and plans for Unit IV is acceptable for a preliminary
plat review.
#4 STAFF BRIEFING
Mr. Upton brief the Commission on Rev. Church's proposal for a
3 acre tract just pass the cut off of Nell Deane on Oak Street.
The question came up as to who was responsible to extend Nell
Deane and how far.
Ms. Stanhope passed out to members of the Commission copies of
Suggested Ordinance Regulating Mobile Home Parks for their review.
