3 Regular Meeting October 14, 1985 Page 3 Mr. Coddington asked for more definitive language to be provided to the Council at second reading in SECTION 4., Subsection B.4. on Page 6 and SECTION 13. on Page 11. The Council voted unanimously for approval of the Ordinance on first reading. Mayor Craddock introduced for consideration a public hearing to con- sider the appeal of S. E. Rutledge from the Planning Commission's decision of July 30, 1985 regarding the replatting of Lot 3 and a portion of Lot 2, Block 6, Lindsey and Harvey Addition, which fronts Rogers and Lindsey Streets. Mayor Craddock opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to speak in favor of the appeal. Pud Rut- ledge spoke in support of the appeal stating he feels that the plat meets all the subdivision requirements. No one else wished to speak in favor of the appeal, so Mayor Craddock asked if anyone wished to speak in opposition. Edith Coleman, representing the neighborhood, spoke in support of the Planning Commission's decision to deny the plat and stated if the plat were approved by the Council it would further add strain to the utility system. Peggy Chambliss said the plat if approved would go against the integrity and conventionality of the neighborhood and that it would increase the traffic. Mary Cauble stated she was opposed to the replatting and wanted Mr. Rutledge to have to obey the Ordinances of the City as all citizens are expected to do. Terry Chambliss also stated he thought the replatting would go against the integrity of the neighborhood. Juanita Martinez was concerned about the parking problems in the area, as so many vehicles park in the street. She had been advised the replatting concerned apartments to be constructed, and the Council advised her no apart- ments were being constructed on the property. No one else wished to speak in favor or in opposition to the appeal, so Mayor Craddock closed the public hearing. Mr. Brown moved to deny the appeal and Ms. Kissler seconded the motion. Mr. Farr expressed that conventionality plays an important role in a neighborhood and was a factor to be con- sidered. On roll call the Council voted unanimously for denial of the appeal. Mayor Craddock introduced for consideration a public hearing to con- sider granting a petition to form a Municipal Utility District, to consider directing Staff to prepare a Consent Agreement, to review proposed Land Use, Water and Wastewater Service Plans, and to review the Fiscal/Financial Impacts of Municipal Utility Districts on the City of San Marcos for 514 acres located approximately one-half mile from the Blanco River Bridge on the Southeast side of Interstate High- way 35, known as Highridge.
