Mr. Ron Huggins, applicant, was available to answer council questions. City Council Minutes April 14, 2003 Page 8 Mr. Pitstick summarized item and Planning and Zoning's recommendation. Mr. Pitstick stated that staff has concerns with Mr. Huggins request for HC (Heavy Commercial) and that staff would support a PD (Planned Development). A PD would allow better control of the area, which staff views as a win/win situation for both Mr. Huggins and the residential property owners. There were questions and discussion by council on the desire for a master plan of the development and the benefits of the project being a planned development rather than straight zoning. Councilwoman Johnson commented that a plan was never brought before council by Mr. Huggins to show his intention for expansion. Mr. Pitstick advised that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the request and staff recommendation is to deny or postpone the request and come back with a planned development. Mayor Trevino asked for anyone wishing to speak in favor of the request to come forward. Mayor Trevino noted for the record that Ron Huggins is in support of the request. There being no one else wishing to speak in favor Mayor Trevino asked for anyone wishing to speak in opposition to come forward. The following spoke in opposition of request.

Welch asked if Mr. Huggins would be allowed to respond to comments. Mayor Trevino asked council to consider allowing Mr. Huggins to speak. Councilman Tim Welch said that he would like to hear Mr. Huggins comments regarding staff's recommendation of PD. Mr. Huggins said that he is requesting HC and not PD. The remainder of his property is zoned Heavy Commercial. Mr. Huggins addressed Council's comments regarding the overall plan. Mr. Huggins commented that he presented a plan at the time of his last request, but could only bring forth an overall plan as he knew it at that point in time. Since that time he has been able to acquire additional property. Mayor Trevino informed council that Councilman Tolbert asked for a PD last year when Mr. Huggins requested rezoning for acquired residential property. Councilman Tolbert's reasoning for requesting PD was to allow staff more control of what futures uses would be allowed at this property should the property be sold. City Council Minutes April 14, 2003 Page 9 COUNCILMAN LYLE E. WELCH MOVED TO APPROVE PZ 2003-03. COUNCILMAN WHITSON SECONDED THE MOTION. Councilman Tolbert mentioned that he would like to see the fees waived for the PD should Mr. Huggins submit request for a Planned Development. Councilwoman Johnson commented that the council has yet to see a plan for the development by Mr. Huggins. Councilwoman Johnson feels that this development is being piece milled and council deserves to know what is going on with property. Councilman Turnage voiced his agreement with Councilman Tolbert and Mayor Trevino. Councilman Turnage said that he would be in favor of a PD. Councilman Tim Welch said that he too believed that this property should be a PD. COUNCILMAN LYLE E.. WELCH WITHDREW HIS MOTION. MAYOR PRO TEM METTS MOVED TO DENY PZ 2003-03. COUNCILMAN TOLBERT SECONDED THE MOTION. Councilman Metts mentioned that he would like the PD option. Councilman Whitson asked that Mr. Huggins address the noise pollution. Councilman Lyle E. Welch questioned if Mr. Huggins property that is currently zoned HC would be affected by a Planned Development.

Motion to deny carried 6-1; with Councilmen Turnage, Whitson, Tolbert, Tim Welch, Mayor Pro Tem Metts and Councilwoman Johnson voting for denial and Councilman Lyle E. Welch voting against. Mayor Trevino recessed the meeting at 8:26 p.m. Mayor Trevino reconvened the meeting at 8:37 p.m. with same members present. City Council Minutes April 14, 2003 Page 10 11.

Mr. David Washington, applicant, was available to answer council questions. Councilman Whitson asked Mr. Washington to address his plans for tree preservation. Mr. Washington advised council that he would comply with city ordinance and that the only trees removed would be those needed for utilities. Mr. Pitstick summarized item and Planning and Zoning's recommendation. Mr. Pitstick advised council that staff received a petition from 22.7% of landowners within 200 feet of request and given that a petition was received a three-fourths vote from council is required to enact ordinance.
