There were no objections presented to the change in zoning. There were no representatives from the Planning and Zoning Commission nor the Pentecostal Local Church, owners of the property in question. The Mayor closed the hearing and read the ordinance, the caption of which is as follows: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 3 OF THAT ORDINANCE WHICH REGULATES AND RESTRICTS THE LOCATION AND USE OF BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES AND LAND, DATED MAY 23, 1966 (VOL. 32) BY CHANGING THE ZONING OF LOTS 4, 5 AND 6, BLOCK 7 OF THE C.D. WALLACE ADDITION, LOCATED AT 208 LAREDO STREET, FROM "R-l" (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) TO "P-2" (PUBLIC USE). I Mr. Flores moved the Ordinance be tabled since no One was present to request the change. Mr. Sutton seconded the motion. At that time, the Reverend Samuel Montoya, pastor of Pentecostal Local Church, arrived. Rev. Montoya explained that the property was presently being used for church purposes, though the actual zoning classification was "R_l". He further stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission had arbitrarily initiated the change to bring the zoning into conformity with the actual usage. Rev. Montoya said that the church had originally requested renewal of a temporary permit for a mobile home located on the property, and had been informed that if the zoning were changed, a permit would be unnece ssary. For that reason, they wished the Council to take action on the ordinance as soon as possible. Since Rev. Montoya was present, Mr. Flores withdrew his motion to table, with consent of the seconder, and requested the Planning and Zoning Commission be requested to send a representative to each Council meeting. Mr. Arredondo moved the Ordinance be approved on first reading. Mr. Sutton seconded the motion. On roll call, the following vote was recorded: AYE: Craddock, Flores, Hansen, Sutton, Arredondo, Dibrell NAY: Breihan. Mr. Breihan requested the Council consider at a later date the ordinance which allowed mobile homes to be placed in certain zoning classifications without permits.
