<br />I <br /> <br />Page 3 of 3 <br /> <br />Section 4-400.1 Zoninq of Annexed Property (pp 22): This <br />paragraph, in part, states: All territory annexed hereafter to <br />the City of La Porte may be temporarily classified as R-1, Low <br />Density Residential, only until permanently zoned by the La Porte <br />City Council... <br /> <br />The word "may" in this paragraph allows property to be <br />annexed into the City without any zoning classification. This <br />can lead to confusion as well as a variety of complications, <br />legal and otherwise. Substituting the word "shall" will <br />eliminate this problem and satisfy the Zoning Ordinance's intent <br />that newly annexed property be held in the most restrictive <br />zoning classification until permanent zoning is assigned. The <br />amended paragraph would read: All territory annexed hereafter to <br />the City of La Porte shall be temporarily classified as R-l Low <br />Density Residential.... <br />
