PZ 70-25 Request of May Advertising Company, Incorporated to
allow the construction of an all steel out-door
bulletin board l2X54 feet. Property is located in the
Richland Oaks Addition, being the remaining portion
of Lot 3, Block B, zoned local retail. Mr. J.D. Lapham,
representing May Advertising, came forward to present
the case to the Board. Mr. Lapham explained that this
was a small triangular piece of ground left when the
right of way was obtained for Highway l2lA. The prop-
erty is not suitable for a normal business operation.
The property is zoned Local Retail and the request is
to allow a lighted sign to be placed at this location.
The normal zoning would require Commercial. After much
discussion by members of the Board, Mr. Ballenger
requested that if the variance was granted that it be
made a part of the variance that May Advertising be
required to maintain the grounds under the sign and the
sign in a manner acceptable to the City. Mr. Helton
asked Mr. Lapham if this would be acceptable to them.
Mr. Lapham answered affirmatively. Motion to approve
the request and grant the variance, with the stipulation
that the property be properly maintained, was made by
ltlr. Jay Jones, seconded by Dr. Hahn wi th all members
present voting affirmative.

PS 10-12 Expansion of McMillan Trailer Court, 6520 Harmonson
Road. This was the request of Mr. Joe and Bill
McMillan to use the additional 90 feet owned by them,
namely the east one half of Lot 6 out of the Mahaly
Lynch Survey, to expand their present operation. Mr.
Helton asked Mr. Ballenger to present a plat of all
the property involved, and a proposed use plat. It
was explained that the East 90 feet of Lot 6 had in
fact had a trailer on it for a period of time dating
back before North Richland Hills became a city. Mr.
)lcMillan requested that he be allowed to place some
additional trailers on this property, thus utilizing
the land and allowing him to upgrade the present use
of Lot 7 by making it economically feasable to improve
by asphalt paving, provide a play ground area, the
installation of a brick fence and sign and the up-
grading of the operation in general. Mr. Ballenger
recommended that this request be approved, stating
that this would allow the upgrading of the property
in general and bring it into more conformity with
the requirements regarding trailer parks. It was
explained that adequate water and sewage was avail-
able and very little additional installation would
be required to accomplish the utilization of this
property. Motion to allow the expansion, as requested,
subject to the asphalt roads, play ground area, and
decorative fence across the front was made by Dr.
Hahn, seconded by Jay Jones. Motion carried unamiously.
The Board directed Mr. Ballenger to inspect periodi-
cally, to assure that the improvements were accomp-
lished in conformity with the intent of the granting
of this request.
