RE: Replacement of the City of La Porte's Official Zoning Map
Honorable Mayor and Council,
It has come to the attention of the Planning & Zoning Commission
that the original mylar copy of the City's Zoning Map has been
damaged. The damage appears to have been caused by water and cleaning
chemicals being absorbed by the map. This apparently occurred while
the City Hall carpets were being cleaned. . '-
Having inspected the official map, the Commission feels the damage
is severe enough to warrant replacement of this document. As required
by Section 2-600 of Ordinance No. 1501, we are therefore, forward ing
this report to City Council with a recommendation that a resolution be
passed, authorizing replacement of the official zoning map. Further,
having also inspected the mylar. copy from the official map assigned to
the Zoning Administrator's office) the Commission finds this map to be
a true and accurate copy of the offic ial zon ing map. vIe therefore,
recommend that this map be used "for the preparation .of a new official
map.
Respectfully submitted,
