ORDINANCE NO. 780-PPP
AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING -THE POLICY OF THE CITY OF LA PORTE
CONCERNING THE ZONING CLASSIFICATIONS UNDER THE FORMER CITY
OF LOMAX ZONING ORDINANCE; AND PROVIDING AN EFFEC'rIVE DATE
HEREOF.
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA PORTE:
Section 1.
The former City of Lomax has heretofore been
consolidated with the City of La Porte. The former City of
Lomax had a comprehensive Zoning Ordinance.
The Ci ty of
La Porte has a comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. The Planning
-
and Zoning Commission of the Ci ty of La Porte is presently
studying the existing Ci ty of La Porte Zoning Ordinance, wi th
a view to recommending substantial changes and revisions.
Section 2.
Upon its consolidation with the City of
La Porte, the territory of the former City of Lomax came under
the coverage of the City of La Porte Zoning Ordinance, with a
temporary classification of "R-l Residential." Because of the
substantial number of land parcels involved, and because of
the ongoing revision process on the City of La Porte Zoning
Ordinance, it would be a duplication of effort by the Planning
and Zoning Commission, and an inconvenience to the property
e
owners involved, to have individual hearings on all of the
land parcels in the terri tory of the former Ci ty of Lomax,
for a permanent zoning cla.ssification, prior to the enactment
of the new revised City of La Porte Zoning Ordinance. There-
fore, the City Council of the City of La Porte, upon the
recommendation of the City of La Porte Planning and Zoning
Commission, hereby adopts - and carries forward, the zoning
classifications which were in effect on the various parcels
e
of land in the territory comprising the former Ci ty of Lomax,
and the same shall have the same zoning classifications as
they were classified under the former Ci ty of Lomax Zoning
Ordinance, according to the following table, to-wit:
