<br /> Mr. Guerra opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to
<br /> speak in favor of the zoning request. Tom Watts representing the
<br /> owners of the property stated when the land was purchased it had an
<br /> "M" zoning and with the Zoning Ordinance adopted by the City in 1984,
<br /> they no lon~er had this zoning. He stated the City is experiencing
<br /> sewage difficulties that have affected their project. he stated the
<br /> Planning Cornnission had approved their land use and the Zoning Commis-
<br /> sion denied the "c" and'i\1F-5" requests but that Staff had advised
<br /> them MF-4 and MF-3 were appropriate. He stated there was a general
<br /> concern for the condition of Post Road but he does not personally
<br /> feel their project will affect the traffic of the area. He requested
<br /> consideration for MF-3 zoning for eighteen units to be built so they
<br /> could pursue their objectives. No one else wished to speak in favor
<br /> of the zoning request, so Mr. Guerra asked if anyone wished to speak
<br /> in opposition. L. E. Dupont read a letter of protest dated October 7,
<br /> 1985 into the record which was included in the Council's packet. he
<br /> read portions of a letter written by Dr. Glen Longley stating this de-
<br /> velopment would be a threat to the quality of water in the area. He
<br /> stated the neighbors were "pro-growth" as this sort of development
<br /> would appreciate their land but were not so interested in growth as
<br /> to allow Post Road to be more of a public safety factor. He stated
<br /> Post Road was a future Ben White (Austin). He pointed out to Council
<br /> 28.2% of owners within 200 feet of the property were protesting. No
