classification of Multiple Family Dwelling to a pro-
posed classification of Local Retail. This 1.400 acre

with 439 feet fronting on Rufe Snow Drive.
Mr. Britton asked the Board if they would hear
PZ 77-13 thru PZ 77-17 jointly because this is
one large tract of land that is presently zoned
Multiple Family, Local Retail and 2F-9.
.
Mr. William Parsons, vice ~resident of Cambridge
Companies'Oevelopmént'Corpóration presented this
request. Mr. Parsons said the great success of Fox
and Jacobs and Spies-Roberts in this area is what
prompted my company to continue the development of
single family homes. He said the reason they were
asking for these zoning changes was to protect the
future homeowners and to have uniform zoning in this
area. Mr. Parsons said this area would be developed
1F-8 with the exception of the two variances granted
them on May 19, 1977 by the Zoning Board of Adjust-
ment. Mr. Parsons stated they had been granted a
variance on the lot size and the number of off park-
ing spaces. Mr. Parsons said it would be a definite
upgrading of the existing North Park Estates, because
the homes currently being built in North Park Estates
are being built under 1F-7 zoning. He said his com-
pany is currently cutting streets, etc. in the north
part of this tract as it has already been platted and
is under contract to Spies-Roberts contigent on the
· change in zoning. Mr. Parsons said the other part of
this tract is under contract to Fox and Jacobs con-
tigent on the change in zoning, with the exception of
the Northwest corner and the Southwest corner on which
we are asking for Local Retail Zoning on. Mr. Parsons
said the Local Retail would contain a grocery store
and various other kinds of shops.
.
FOR:
Charles Lee Sims - 6632 Summertime Lane
I am in favor of as much Local Retail Zoning as
possible.
Billy Wayne Perritt - 6540 Wakefield
Mr. Perritt stated the letter he received from the
City regarding the zoning was misleading to some
degree. He asked why he was the only person in a
four block area to receive a letter? Mr. Britton
explained the City only notified property owners
within 200 feet of the property being rezoned. Mr.
Perritt said he was in favor of the change in zoning
because he would not have bought his home from Spies-
Roberts if he had known this property was zoned
Multiple Family and 2F-9.
