56 regular meeting, september 11, 1978 page two Mr. Hyatt opened a public hearing to consider a request for a change in the zoning of a 3.08 acre tract (#24), Abstract 17-1, J. M. Veramendi Survey #1, 209 I. H. 35 North, from "C" (Commercial) to "C-2" (Commercial). There were no objections from neighbors. The Planning and 20ning Commission neither approved or disapproved the request. Mr. Bill Montague was present to request the zoning change. He told the Council that he did not wish to serve alcoholic beverages for consumption inside his truck-stop building but that he wanted to be protect- ed in the event persons bought beer to take put and opened the containers on his property. Mr. Arredondo moved to table the request until further information could be obtained from the Alcoholic Beverage Commission. Mr. Hansen seconded the motion which passed unanimously. I The Mayor introduced a request from Bob Boyd for water service to property located outside the City limits on River Road. The Director of Public Works reported that it would be necessary to replace existing 2" pipe with an 8" line. Since Mr. Boyd only needed a 6" pipe line for his development, part of the cost of the line would be borne by the City. Mr. Kotowski said Mr. Boyd's share was estimated at $33,984 and the City's share at $15,125. Mr. Boyd stated that he felt the cost was too great for him to pay alone since other property owners would also benefit. Mr. Sutton moved that if Mr. Boyd will change his mind and agree to pay his portion of water line and pay the money that the City would build as soon after that. Mr. James amended the ,motion by adding if Mr. Boyd can satisfy the City's specifications. Mr. Hansen seconded the motion. On roll call, the following vote was recorded: AYE: Hansen, Hyatt, James, Sutton, Arredondo NAY: None ABSTAIN: Breihan.
