The Ordinance was then r~ead in its entirety, the caption which follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS, TEXAS, ~4ENDING SECTION 3 OF THAT ORDINANCE WHICH REGULATES AND RESTRICTS THE LOCATION AND USE OF BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES AND LAND, DATED SEPTEMBER 29, 1980 (VOL. 54) BY CHANGING THE ZONING OF 1.706 ACRES OF LAND OUT OF THE J. M. VERAMENDI LEAGUE NO. ONE, LOCATED OFF HUNTER ROAD ABOUT ONE AND ONE-HALF MILES SOUTHWESTERLY FROM THE HAYS COUNTY COURTHOUSE, FROM "AO" (AGRICULTURAL OPEN-SPACE DISTRICT) TO "MH" (MOBILE HOME DISTRICT). Mrs. Norris moved that the Ordinance be approved on first reading and Mr. Kreczmer seconded this motion to get the matter on the table for discussion. Mr. Joe Garza then enumerated Staff's concerns to the zoning request. This particular area is serviced only by one private road; there is a lack of control and lack of right-of-way in this area. It would take a considerable amount of time and cost to correct these problems. Mr. Brown asked Mr. Garza what the future development of this area might be. Mr. Garza indicated the Planning Department had no clear definition for the area's future land use. The area is in the flood plains and in a proposal, has been designated as a location for a flood retention dam. The zoning request contains only 1.706 acres of land, and Staff pointed out to the Planning and Zoning Com- mission that the property was less than the area requirement for a mobile home district (3 acres). Before Planning and Zoning would take any action on the zoning request, the property developer obtained a variance from the Board of Appeals and Adjustments. The variance was granted because the property was contiguous to a larger mobile home park. Because of the Staff concerns, Mr. Cavazos moved that the Ordinance be tabled and Mr. Brown seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. If the request comes before the Council again in the future, it would need to have public notice of a 'public hear- ing again. Mayor Craddock introduced for consideration a public hearing on a Zoning Ordinance on 66.71 acres of land located on Post Road from "AO" (Agricultural Open-Space District) to "I" (Industrial District, known as the Barker-Warren property. Mayor Craddock opened the public hearing. Ron Carroll, representing the owners of the property made a presentation to the Council on the future development of the property. No one else wished to speak in favor of the zoning request and no one opposed the request, so Mayor Craddock closed the public hearing. Mrs. Norris moved that the zoning request be tabled until such time we had proper field notes and information to make a deci- sion and Mrs. Mendez seconded the motion. On roll call the following vote was recorded: AYE: Craddock, Kreczmer, Mendez and Norris. NAY: Cavazos and James. ABSTAIN: Brown.
