DALE PORTER TO REZONE LOTS 1 THROUGH 16, BLOCK 1146, FROM RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL. Mayor Thomas called to order the joint public hearing with the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider the request from Mr. Dale Porter to rezone Lots 1 through 16, Block 1146, from Residential to Commercial. It was ascertained that notices to all property owners within 200 feet of the property under considera- tion for rezoning were mailed on July 16, 1974, and that a Public Notice of this hearing was published in the official newspaper of the City on July 18, 1974. Mayor Thomas located the property in question on the map as being located off Highway 146 between West L and West M Streets. Mayor Thomas asked if there was anyone opposed to the rezoning that would like to speak. There being none, • he asked if there was anyone to speak in favor of the rezoning. 2 Mr. Walter Roberson, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Commission was recognized and stated that the area in question in regard to rezoning is surrounded by property owned by one individual, owning 324 acres, who also has an application pending for the same classification. The individual owns the entire area except for two small outlots. The individuals property runs from the railroad out to Highway 146 and south to the city limit line. The pending application for rezoning is for Commercial with Light Industry on Special Permit on any plant that would go in. Mayor Thomas asked if there were any other comments? There being none, declared the hearing closed. Since there was another piece of property to be considered for rezoning, it was the consensus of opinion to hold the hearing on the other property before the Planning and Zoning Commission recessed to make their recommendation and the Commission would vote on the property separately after the recommendation was presented. •
