• <br />• <br />• Minutes, Joint Public Hearing and Special Called Meeting <br />La Porte City Council, March 24, 1982, Page 7 <br />Dominy: We're not trying to push any particular use right <br />now; but no containers. <br />Westergren: You recognize it, too. <br />Dominy: Not that I'm against them. Don't misunderstand me. <br />Meza: On commercial use, the only use they would have would <br />be for office use, stores and/or apartments, isn't that cor- <br />rect? <br />Dominy: I understand that is correct, but I understand that <br />special use permits can be issued. I don't think we are <br />going to get a store down there, really and truly. And I <br />think that if this guy is interested in buying it, that's <br />probably going to be the best use for it. I understand that <br />he wants to put his office there and you questioned his <br />equipment; I understand he has a back-hoe and a truck and <br />four pick-ups. So it's not heavy equipment storage or any- <br />thing like that. But we are not asking for that approval. <br />We are just asking to have it rezoned to commercial. I don't <br />know who we will sell it to. We may always own it. <br />Westergren: Well, undoubtedly, it's not a perfect piece of <br />property for residential zoning, anyway. <br />Meza: Are there any further questions from the Council? <br />Are there any further comments from the public? Since there <br />are none, we will recess to permit Planning and Zoning to <br />confer on a recommendation on the information they have <br />heard here tonight. <br />The Council recessed at 7:20 P.M. <br />4. Mayor Meza called the Special Called Meeting of the La Porte <br />City Council to order at 7:30 P.M. <br />5. Mayor Meza asked Chairperson Muston to come forward to make <br />their recommendation to Council concerning the 23 acre tract <br />north of Highway 225 and Highway 146 to Industrial with a <br />"Special Use Permit." <br />Muston stated that since that general area of the City has <br />been approved for such use in several instances recently, <br />Planning and Zoning considers the area appropriate for further <br />such development. (P & Z recommendation is a part of the <br />official minutes.) <br />
