50 regular meeting, february 25, 1980 page two Chris Brasher also came before the Council to state that citizens have paid taxes on these streets for years and pointed out the traffic problems created by the closing of these streets. Arnold Leder spoke to the Council about the impact of this action on the Holland Area Neighborhood. He asked that the Council not pass the Ordinance on final reading until the Master Plan Committee could study it further. Mr. Tenorio asked if the University would be willing to wait until the closing could be studied by the Committee as recommended by Mr. Leder. Dr. Payne informed Council that the University would prefer immediate action. He also said that the University had not made plans for use of the property. The City Manager stated that this issue had been under careful consideration for a great length of time and that development of the University campus had made use of Guadalupe Street and L.B.J. Drive undesirable as major thoroughfares. He recommended the Council adopt the Ordinance. Mr. Breihan moved to adopt the Ordinance on third and final reading. Mr. Cavazos seconded the motion.
