Page 2 P & Z Minutes July 15, 1988 Vice Chairman Schwinger called for those wishing to speak in opposition to this request to please come forward. Thurburn Key, 4024 Rita Beth, came forward. He said the neighbors do not want any business there. He said Rita Beth is a little street, only one block long. He said the parking would block them and the traffic would be dangerous for the 8 to 10 school kids in the area. Vice Chairman Schwinger asked Mr. Key where he lived. Mr. Key said he lives on the same side of Rita Beth. Mr. Bowen stated there are parking requirements that would have to be met. Mr. Key said several of the neighbors would have come tonight, but were ill. Mr. Barfield asked Mr. Key if it would be agreeable with him if the Commission stipulated that their access would be to Glenview and there would be no entrances on Rita Beth. Mr. Key said it would not bother him that way. Mr. Tricoli said you can not stop them parking on the street even if you put up "No Parking" signs. Mr. Wood said he was not sure the Commission could grant a stipulation that the only access would be on Glenview. He said this is so close to Rufe Snow Drive that it might back traffic up to the intersection. . . . . Page 3 p & Z Minutes July 14, 1988 Phillip Bramer, 4019 Rita Beth, came forward. He said he did not get a letter and he has lived there 30 years. Mr. Bramer said he has the same objections to this as Mr. Key. He said there are no sidewalks and this would create more traffic. Julia Brewer, 4033 Rita Beth, came forward. She said her mother lives at this address. She said most of the people who live in this area are old people. Ms. Brewer said if two cars park on the street no one could get through. She said if the entire area could go commercial, it would be fine because they could sell, but not just one lot. G. D. Brewer, 4033 Rita Beth, came forward. He said this man's intentions are great, but what will happen later on; what would be there the next 5 years. He said odds are not good for survival in the restaurant business. Mr. Brewer said it might work out if there was no traffic on Rita Beth. Vice Chairman Schwinger closed the Public Hearing. Mr. Barfield asked Mr. Neira if he could live with an entrance only on Glenview with a screening wall. Mr. Neira said he could. He said he does not need an entrance on Rita Beth. Mr. Neira said all they need is a drive around and out. He said these people live behind this property. Mr. Tricoli said he feels you can not stop parking on the side of the street and he is not in favor of this request. - . . . Page 4 p & Z Minutes July 14, 1988 Mr. Barfield said if you have a screening fence there would be no need for them to park there. He said this is adjacent to commercial and there is commercial across the street and he feels with commercial all around, this is the best use for the property. Mr. Barfield said the neighbors say they would not be against it if there is no entrance on Rita Beth and there is a screening fence. Mr. Tricoli made a motion to deny PZ 88-7. This motion was seconded by Mr. Bowen. This motion failed by a vote of 2-4 with Mr. Barfield, Mr. Wood, Ms. Flippo and Vice Chairman Schwinger voting against the denial. PZ 88-7 APPROVED Mr. Barfield made the motion to approve PZ 88-7 with the stipulation that there be no entrance to Rita Beth and a 6 foot screening wall along the western side of the property as long as there is residential there. This motion was seconded by Ms. Flippo and the motion carried 4-2 with Mr. Tricoli and Mr. Bowen voting against. Mr. Bowen asked if the fence would block the view of traffic. Mr. Sanford said it would have to be set back far enough for the sight triangle. 2. PZ 88-8 Request of Marvin D. Smith to rezone a portion of Tract 2, John Condra Survey, Abstract 311, from its present classification of AG Agriculture to R-2 Single Family. This property is located on the north side of Lincoln Drive, approximately 112 feet east of Cimarron Drive. Vice Chairman Schwinger opened the Public Hearing and called for those wishing to speak in favor of this request to please come forward. . . . Page 5 p & Z Minutes July ~, 1988 1 ~ 3. Marvin Smith came forward. He said all they were doing was taking two lots out of the Agriculture district and add to the other R-2 lots. Mr. Smith said his parents own this property and they do not want to sell off any more of their land. He said this corner has been a problem with people dumping trash on it. Mr. Smith said selling these lots would give his parents a little money to pay their taxes. Mr. Smith said the houses in this area are from 1800 to 2250 square feet and he plans to build approximately 2000 square feet on these lots. He said the utilities are already there and there would not be much change in the neighborhood. Vice Chairman Schwinger called for those wishing to speak in opposition to this request to please come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, the Vice Chairman closed the Public Hearing. PZ 88-8 APPROVED Mr. Wood made the motion to approve PZ 88-8. This motion was seconded by Mr. Bowen and the motion carried 6-0.

He said lots 8, 9, & 10 fell under the deed restrictions of Fossil Creek Trails Addition and had to be 13,000 square feet so they increased the size. Vice Chairman Schwinger called for anyone wishing to speak in opposition to this request to please come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, the Vice Chairman closed the Public Hearing.
