Margaret Anderson, 909 Garden Walk, thanked the Commission for discouraging the Sleep Inn development. She had concerns of the explosion of hotel/motels in La Porte. She suggested a moratorium on hotel/motel development for at least one year. With eight motels and two new ones under construction, La Porte is becoming a motel community. The concept of a bedroom community held by our forefathers has gone away. She also would like to see 1000' between hotel/motels. 15.
