City Council Meeting Minutes September 4,2018 <br /> properties still consist of single-family houses. <br /> To keep the "Duplex" lower density zoning category in place along the north <br /> side of Windmill Street is just as valid and important today as when that <br /> category was specified decades ago. <br /> As we're seeing with increasing frequency,San Marcos neighborhoods need <br /> protection. The Alamo,Hillcrest,Ridgeway,Canyon area has been subject to <br /> repeated assaults by developers interested in increasing housing density. Our <br /> neighborhood needs protection from such efforts. In this case the simple <br /> application of existing zoning would suffice. <br /> As our city council, please help us maintain the integrity of our tiny portion of <br /> San Marcos by not approving this request for increased density next to our <br /> established neighborhood. <br /> Jan Rudnicki,stated that she stood with Larry Mock and her husband on this <br /> issue. She mentioned a number of members of their neighborhood that came <br /> back 20 years later after a number people have since passed away and that is <br /> frustrates her that the money was able to wait out and sit on money for 20 <br /> years and not do anything until a new Planning and Zoning Commission <br /> comes along. Now they can come in and make money on something that is in <br /> our back yards. We worked on CodeSMTX, and I know you did and I <br /> appreciate your work so please take this into consideration when making your <br /> decision. <br /> There being no further comments,the Mayor closed the PH at 6:58 p.m. <br /> A motion was made by Council Member Derrick, seconded by Council <br /> Member Gonzales,to deny Ordinance 2018-35.
