INTER-OFFICE MEMO
T0: Plan g and Zoning Commission
FROM: D ~ ulissen
DATE: 02/12/86
SUBJECT: Rezoning B1k. 2, Lts.22-24 Spenwick Place, Section 1
The City has received a request from Mrs. Vivian Covington to rezone
Blk. 2, Lots 22 thru 24,•Spenwick Place, Section 1 from its temporary
"R-1" Residential classification to "C" Commercial. The reason for
the request is to allow the business to operate in a more efficient
manner. As the business. has a legally established pre-existing use no
rezoning is recommended until the entire area has been rezoned.
HISTORY
The property is located on the South side of West Main between
Hillsdale and Ridgefield in the Spenwick area. A used car lot and
grocery store is located and operating on the site. This property is
in the most recently annexed area of La Porte and has not yet received
its final zoning classification. The Comprehensive Plan indicates
that this area should remain "R-1". This issue has received much
study by the Commission and past policy indicate that rezoning should
not take place on any tracts not prevented from developing by zoning.
ANALYSIS
The entire Main St. frontage in this area has been discussed at length
by the Commission within the past year. The area in question has
received attention due to disagreements with the proposed zoning.
The result of the discussions was a policy of only rezoning in the
area if a use is proposed that fit. the character of the area and
zoning would prevent such development. 'f he present use is a legally
established pre-existing use under the current Ordinance and as such
• may remain in operation and expand on the same lot without zoning
conflicts.
RECOMMENDATION
It is not clearly underst
operated as a result of a
obstacle is seen staff
Commission, to table this
and finally rezoned ~,t

Attention: Cheri Black
Dear Cheri,
I am requesting that the following described property, located
at 9310 Spencer Hwy., owned by me, be zoned commercial:
Lots 22, 23, 24, Block 2, Spenwick Place, Section 1
This is the location of our grocery store and used car sales,
• which was annexed by the city in 1984, and as yet, has not been
re-zoned from R-1 Residential to Commercial.
We have been operating since the annexation without the proper
zoning and, it is our request that the property be zoned
commercial so that we may operate our business in a more
efficient manner.
Please find attached the $100.00 filing fee.
If any further information is needed, please let me know. Thank
you for your assistance in this matter.
Sincerely,

IfJTER-OFFICE MEMO
T0: Plann' and Zoning Commission
FROM: D. aulissen
DATE: 02/11/86
SUBJECT: Re-zoning reauest, Blk. 158, Lts. 1-16, LP
The City has received a rezoning request from Mr. Gus Brieden to
rezone Lts. 1-16, Blk: 158, LP from "R-1" Residential to "C"
Commercial. No specific use is proposed and the reason given for the
request is "t0 comply with the master plan". One half of the lots
under consideration (Lts. 1-8) are recommended to remain "R-1" by the
plan. Although lots g-16 are proposed to become General Commercial,
GC, no use is given and past policy indicates that rezoning without a
use should not take place.
HISTORY
The property in question is located between the North/South alley
between First St. And Second St, and "H" and "I". This entire one
• half (1/2) block faces a built out section of residential uses West
across Second St, from the site. The property is vacant at this
time. A review of the tax role indicates that lots 7 thru 10 are not
owned by Mr. Brieden.
ANALYSIS
Lots 1-8 are currently "R-1" Residential and proposed to remain so
under the comprehensive plan. Lots 9-16 are however proposed to
become "GC" General Commercial .under the plan. No proof of ownership
is enclosed as required by the current Zoning Ordinance and should be
required before the public hearing takes place. With no proposed use
given, it is impossible to determine the impact of the rezoning on the
surrounding area and the residential use across Second St. from this
'~; ~ property.
RECOMMENDATION
One half of the lots in question are proposed to remain residential
and no use is given for the remaining half of the lots. With these
facts in mind, staff would recommend denial of the request for
rezoning lots 1-8 and a tabling of the request on lots 9-16 until
proof of owner:~t~ip is shown and a specific use is indicated.

INTER-OFFICE MEMO
T0: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: T~~~'J aulissen
DATE: 02/12/86
SUBJECT: Rezoning .918 acre tract out of Whi.hi. Jones A-x482, Exxon
The City has received a reo,uest from Exxon's Marketing Department far
the rezoning of .918 acres out of the Wm. M. Jones A-r+82 survey. T}~,e
request asks for a rezcning from its temporary "R-1" Residential
classification to "C" Commercial. The proposed use is for the
r'constructicn and operation of an EXXON service ~t~tion. With a clear
use indicated by the applicant this request should be considered for
rezoning.
HISTORY
This property is located at the North West corner of Fairmont Fkw. and
Underwood Rd. It is directly across Underwood Rd. from the Circle K_
at Underwood and Fairmont. The proposed zoning has been compared to
• the Comprehensive Plan and proposed zoning map. The area in question
is proposed to be "R-2" Medium Density Residential. As witYr ottrer
requests in this area, the frontage along Fairmont has been discussed
at length with the focus centering around whether thoroughfare
frontage of this type should be considered as developable for
residential. As mentioned, there is a proposed use far this site and
the failure of the request will prevent development.
ANALYSIS
There have been several other request in this area with the most
recent being a rezoning of a tract about one half mile further West to
allow the construction of a Brownies Store. The site in question does
not meet the specific guidelines of the comprehensive plan but past
discussions ~ia~le indicated a conflict with the prohibition of
Commercial uses along Fairmont Pkw. The rezoning of this corner
property would not seem to inhibit further residential development in
the immediate area which has been a problem with past requests in this
area and would have only minor impact on the plan. It should be noted
that botYi water an sewer must be extended to this site
RECOMMENDATION
The rezoning of this tract would have only minor impact on the plan
and would not preclude the development of Residential uses adjacent to
• the site. Based on these fact: staff would recommend that the
rezoning be granted.
