Mr. James moved the ordinance be adopted on emergency basis. Mr. Hansen seconded the motion. Mr. Hyatt pointed out that the University was not being charged based on the rates contained in the City ordinance and said he felt that was unfair and created a problem which should be rectified. Mr. Hyatt moved to amend the ordinance to make it all encompassing for every individual or firm in the City. The motion died for lack of a second. Mr. Ed Fauber, representing Southwest Texas State University, reported that the University was willing to increase the amount paid to the City for use of the landfill to $10,000 per year. On roll call, the motion to adopt the ordinance passed with the following vote: AYE: Sutton, Tenorio, Cavazos, Hansen, James NAY: Breihan, Hyatt. The Mayor read the caption of a resolution as follows: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS, TEXAS, . APPROVING A LEASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN SAID CITY AND TEJAS AVIONICS, INC. FOR A PORTION OF SAN MARCOS MUNICIPAL AIRPORT, AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID LEASE AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE CITY. Mr. Kotowski informed the Council that the Airport Commission had not fully considered the proposed lease and was therefore not ready to make a recommendation. Mr. Robert Brody, General Manager of Tejas Avionics, came before the Council to request that action be taken on a proposed lease at the earliest possible time. Mr. Brody told the Council that the main point of contention seemed to be the term of the lease. He said his company wanted a 30-year lease with a 10-year option so that improvements put into the property could be amortized. Mr. Breihan moved consideration of the lease be tabled until August 13th so as to give the Airport Commission time to make a written report to the City Council. Mr. Hansen seconded the motion which passed unanimously. The Mayor opened a public hearing to consider the development of parkland located on former Gary Air Force Base property. Mr. Scott yarbrough, City Director of Parks and Recreation, and Mr. Peter Olfers, Parkland Development Consultant, went over the proposed development with City Council Members. Mr. Celestino Mendez urged the Council to put City funds into social services as opposed to recreational facilities. '\
