l15 Regular Meeting September 12, 1983 Page 3 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS, TEXAS, AMENDING 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 26.468 ACRES OUT OF THE E. CLARK SURVEY #11, AND THE R. H. WILLIAMS SURVEY #12, HAYS COUNTY, TEXAS, LOCATED ON BISHOP APPROXIMATELY 300 FEET SOUTH OF RANCH ROAD 12, FROM "R-l" (SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT) TO "PUD" (PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT). Mayor Craddock opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to speak in favor of the zoning change. Patrick Miller, the developer of the property, reviewed his PUD development plans with the Council, Phase 1 to be patio homes. The development will have a park area which will be included in the grounds maintenance. The PUD development re- quires the formation of a homeowners' association after 50% of the property is sold. Joe Garza said PUD gives the developer more flexi- bility for more creative type development. The Planning Commission has the power to approve the lot sizes, and that minimum standards can be varied but not the density. John Schwarzcwalder, an adjacent property owner, said he was in favor of the project and thought it would enhance the neighborhood. Mayor Craddock asked if anyone else wished to speak in favor and no one did. She asked if anyone wished to oppose the change. Dr. Ken Long said he did not oppose this pro- ject but that the City's process was backwards, approving the zoning prior to the plans. No one else wished to speak in favor or in opposi- tion to the zonlng request, so Mayor Craddock closed the public hear- ing. Mr. Farr moved to approve the Ordinance on first reading and Ms. Kissler seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. Mayor Craddock introduced for consideration the adoption of an Ordin- ance on emergency, the caption which was read as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS, TEXAS, SETTING FORTH AN ITEMIZED ESTIMATE OF THE EXPENSE OF CONDUCTING EACH ADMINISTRATIVE UNIT OF THE MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT OF SAID CITY FOR THE FISCAL YEAR BEGINNING ON OCTOBER 1, 1983 AND ENDING ON SEPTEM- BER 30, 1984, AND APPROPRIATING MONEY FOR THE VARIOUS FUNDS AND PURPOSES OF SUCH ESTIMATE; APPROPRIATING MONEY TO PAY INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL SINKING FUND RE- QUIREMENTS ON ALL INDEBTEDNESS; APPROPRIATING FUNDS FROM REVENUE SHARING ENTITLEMENT NO. 15; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE FOR THE REPEAL OF ALL ORDINANCES AND APPROPRIATIONS IN CONFLICT WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ORDINANCE AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.
