Bland to rezone Lot 43, Block l-A, Holiday East Addition, Section 2 from its present classification of 1F-9 One Family Dwellino to a proposed classification of Specific Use-Oay Nursery. This property is located at 7541 Lola Orive. Mr. Bill Bland presented this request. He stated the house will not be altered in anyway, no signs, no advertisements and we plan to build a stockade fence around the property. The nursery is to accomadate pre-school and lower grade children from 7 A.M. to 6 P.M. We plan to have a dozen or maybe more children. The interior structure will stay as is; possibly the qarage would be converted into a play room. The fence will be in the rear yard only. Mr. Riddle asked if they were presently operating, if so how many children. The answer was yes, a very small number; 1 all day and 3 after school. FOR · Mrs. Richard Knowles 7524 Susan Court I am for this zoning as the location is handy to school and the children get qood qualified care. The noise should not bother anyone as it is so near the school. Mrs. Duke 7533 Susan Court Mrs~ Bland is a former school teacher and well qualified. AGAINST Mrs. Collins 5313 Susan Lee Lane I am not well and the noise is so loud I can not rest. The traffic is already bad and con~estion from 1ettina children in & out of cars makes it worse. A teacher at the school said the noise was so loud at times it is hard to conduct classes. Mrs. Collins brOu9ht five letters in opposition and eight property owners in the audience were in opposition. A lot of concern from property owners is for the safety of children. Mr. Oliver Smith 5309 Susan Lee Lane · Mr. Carl Burkhalter 7537 Lola I oppose this request because I feel it will devalue our property and cause more of a traffic prohlem. My main concern is the traffic problem. I bouqht because of the school yet if a day care center had been there I would not have purchased a home in the area. Mrs. Fred Enrioht 753~ Lola Drive E.M. Baoqett 5317 Susan Lee Lane I have been i'~nrl there is a considerable bit of noise. It is hard to rest. I don't feel a day nursery should be in a residential area. John Stinson 5528 Susan Lee If approvert,,~/hat VJould stop another from doing the same? After much discussion by the COMMission members Mr. \~e 1 born moved, seconded" by Mr. t1i 11 s to deny PZ 74-58. Motion carried 4-n. Mr. Pa1achek stated the board did not like to spot zone, the specific use zoninq would increase traffic and it would be a detriment to the neiqhborhood. · PZ 74-59 DENIED Request of Larry O. Young to rezone 7.352 acres of the W.C. Newton Survey, Abstract 1182 and the S. Richardson Survey, Abstract 1266 from its present classification of Agriculture to a proposed class- ification of Commercial. This property is located on Precinct Line Road approximately 1530 feet south of County Road no. 3105. Mr. Young presented this request. He stated he runs a truckino business. He built a cinder block building and hàs five tractor trailer truCKS. He believes Precinct Line Road will be a four lane highway from Grapevine Hiqh\A/a~y to Hiahway 11.1. r'r. Young brou9ht many pictures of business buildings in area zoned A~riculture. Mr. Younq has owned this property 2 1/2 years and has had the building completed 6 to 8 months. FOR Dennis Young Rt. 1 Box 1465, Smithfield I moved to this area 8 years ago. At that time there was little traffic. Today there is much traffic. There is a mobile trailer park, Aridersons feed store and a horse stable in the area. Mr. Deaton has commercial property at c orner of Davis ßlvd. & Precinct Line Road. AGAINST Albert Morris Route 1, Smithfield I strongly oppose this request. The noise is quite annoying. . G.H. guans Rt.l Box 1489, Smithfield ~1y property is 2Sf) feet north of said property. It is a beautiful area. I am opposed to this zoning because of traffic problems. Mr. Young was aware of this zoning when he purchased the property. If these trucks come in at 2 A.M. and are broke down they have to be repairerl immediately. This means a great deal of noise. Precinct Line Road is only 20 feet wide. This 4 lane thoroughfare mentioned is probably ten years off. Cecjl Camp Rt. 1 Box 1471; Smithfield y-,ive across the street in Colleyville. I have twenty acres and I oppose because of noise and it is an eye sore in residential area. Jim Carson Rt 1, Box 1481, Smithfield Jeanette Quans Rt. 1 Box 1489, Smithfield Mr. Riddle said the mayor of Colleyville called and requested the zoning remain Agriculture.

In the future this property will be Local Retail and Commerci a 1; ho\-,ever at the present we feel it \'Joul d be spot zoning. Mr. Palachek told Mr. Younq he would have to cease operatinq from this property; however he felt that the City would qive him time to relocate. PZ 74-60 J\.PPROVED .
