,- regular meeting, july 12, 1965 page two \ ,~, Cornelio Alvarado appeared before the Counci I in reference to his appl ication for a permit to op- erate a taxicab in San Marcos. The Mayor quest- ioned Mr. Alvarado on several requirements of the Taxicab Ordinance. By common consent, the Counci I approved the Mayor's decision to ask Mr. Alvarado to furnish the City Manager or the City Secretary with a more complete financial statement, and a statement of need for additional taxi service in San Marcos. Mr. Serur told Mr. Alvarado that when I those requirements were met, the Counci I would give further consideration to the application. Frank Pennington, spokesman for a number of Rio Vista Addition residents, Came before the Counci I to pro- test the moving of "substandard" houses from the Urb- an Renewal project areas into their neighborhood. The Mayor read aloud a petition signed by 27 residents of the area, received by the Counci I at the June 29 meeting. In reference to the request that the City pass an ord- inance requiring that a house moved into the addition "blend harmoniously with the surrounding neighborhood", Mr. Serur said it would be impossible to establ ish a criteria, since it would be a matter of personal taste. In other requests, the Mayor pointed out that they were already being met by existing City bui Jding codes, ordi- nances and regulations.
