The total amount of said judgment, interest and court costs is Two Million One Hundred and Twenty Thousand Dollars ($2,120,000.00). It is essential that this judgment be paid off in ac- cordance with the mandate handed down by the Court -of Civil Appeals, following the affirmation of same by the Supreme Court of Texas.

Under such circumstances, I request that the City Council pass the proposed ordinance calling an election for the issuance of Two Mil- lion One Hundred and Twenty Thousand Dollars ($2,120,000.00) revenue bonds for the purpose of retiring the aforesaid judgment, as an emergency measure.

Your contribution to the welfare of Naval personnel attached here aided greatly in building and maintaining morale.- It also produced a friendly feeling toward the Corpus Christi community. This Command has been informed that the special type of services and facilities that the "Anchorage" End the "Dry Dock" extended filled a great need, affording a place where enlisted personnel found a wholesome atmosphere to -enjoy the common amenities of -life while on li'berty. *In this respect it decreased our discip- linary problems and increased the general welfare of the recipients.

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING May 4, 1948 4:00 P. M. PRESENT: Mayor Wesley E. Seale; Commissioners George R. Clark, Sr., John A. Ferris, R. R. Henry and Joe T. Dawson; City Manager H. H. Allen; City Attorney Tillman Smith; Assistant City Attorneys J. P. Rutherford, Tom Pogue and Neal Dancer; City Secre- tary M. A. Cage, Jr.; Director of Finance Franklin Hutter; Planning Engineer 1Vm.

Motion was made, seconded and carried approving the Regular Council Meeting min- utes for April 27, 1948. The Mayor read the following letter and asked for comments to be heard: "Your City Council has decided to pass the Zoning Ordinance as an emergency measure. The members of the Zoning and Planning Commis- sion and the City Council have spent many months in the preparation of this Zoning Ordinance and in ironing out many things which were objectionable.to the public at large. We have held many hearings in which we have requested the public.to express its opinion and the constructive criticisms offered by the citizens have helped us to compile what we believe is a good Zoning Ordinance.' A' Over 700 cities of the United States have zoning and it has been very successful in building a city in an orderly way and maintaining property values. The greatest value of zoning is for the protection of the small home owner. The more expensive -homes are located in restricted areas which zoning does not affect and it is for the benefit of the more modest home owners that zoning is designed. We do not believe that home owners would like to have an ice.plant, a welding works or a machine shop located next to their residences thereby destroying the property value for residence purposes. , In v iew of the, fact that the Zoning Ordinance has been long delayed in order to incorporate in it the wishes of the majority of the people, and further in view -of the fact that much business is being retarded un- til a zoning ordinance can be enacted, your Mayor is requesting that the Charter Rule be suspended and that the ordinance be passed as an emergency measure. This is in keeping with past practices in the City, as no zoning ordinance has ever been passed in this City except as an emergency meaxure. It is the firm belief of the Council that the majority of the people appreciate and want zoning. Your Council has been very patient and worked long hours in arriving at a workable zoning ordinance and we believe that the majority of the people are completely satisfied with the ordinance as it is now proposed. We have attempted to weigh the criticisms and suggestions offered by the people in many hours of public hearings and have subjected ourselves to a great deal of personal criticism in our sincere and honest effort to be fair with all citizens. We feel that any further delay in the enactment of this ordinance would be entirely a waste of time. There is no reason to submit this ordinance to a vote of the people than any other ordinance that we pass, particularly since zoning has been voted upon by the people in 1930 when the original charter providing for the Zoning and Planning Commission was voted, and again in 1945 when the Charter was amended to provide for a Zoning and Planning Engineer. Your Council expects to find individual cases where changes will have to be made to provide reasonable and fair treatment for all. As the town grows and changes become necessary provision will be made to conform to the changes in growth." The following men were heard in connection with the passage of the Zoning Ordi- nance as an emergency measure: Toe Alsup Dave Coover Joe Roscoe Wm. 5hireman G. R. Swantner W. W.

Motion 'was made, seconded and carried requesting.the Zoning and Planning Commission to investigate and make recommendations on Carmelite Sisters' request (by Henry Wade) for Special Permit to build an Old Peoples Home at northeast corner of intersection of Everhard Road and Alameda Street.. I.Zotion was made, seconded and carried setting a public hearing at 4:00 p.m. on September 28, 19483 and authorizing advertising on Durward Thompson special permit request on 3216 Santa Fe. Motion was made, seconded and carried authorizing a public hearing at 4:00 p.m. on September 28, 1948, and publication of notice of said hearing on the following recommendations of Zoning and Planning Com- mission: 1. That the text of the Ordinance be amended so that Drive -In Theaters can be constructed by Special Permit rather than require zoning of an entire tract,for.this purpose. To Article 203 Section 2, of the Ordinance should be added Item 9. Drive -In Theaters. 2. That the block bounded by Santa Fe, Morgan and Fifth Street be zoned for second Apartment House District. This request is made by Dr. John Thomas. In the same block is located the Tyree Clinic and a permit for a clinic was granted nearly a.year ago on Santa Fe in the same block. 3. It was recommended that Lots 1, 2, 33 1003 101, 102, Idonterrey Addition, be zoned for Primary Business District. These lost are located at Madero Street and Sam Rankin. Zoning this property* for business will close the gap and make all the property on Sam Rankin from Diestina north for business. 4. Mr. Jack Laws requested the property at 2767 Santa Fe.be rezoned for One Family to Business Dis- trict uses. This property is located immediately across from the Bessar Park Community Center and is located in Del Monte Subdivision. The deed restrictions for this property do not permit a use for business purposes. Therefore, the Zoning and Planning Commission recommended against zoning this property for business. 202 Motion was made, seconded and carried that the following six applications for special zoning, presentel by 11r. Anderson, which have already been recommended for denial by the Zoning and Planning Commission, be and they are hereby denied: Lot 20, Block 1, High Terrace Addition, from an "R-1" One -Family -District to a "B-1" Neighborhood Business District. Request was made by Manuel Saldivar. Lots 3 to 9. Block 2, Kosar Addition, this property being located on the west side of Duncan and now zoned for Third Apartment House District lies between Ruth and Highland. This request was made by Mrs. Lillie Pena who wishes to erect a small retail establishment. A request was made by F. F. Quaile to rezone Lots 1 and 2, Block 2, Bay View Addition from First Apartment District to Second Apartment District so as to allow clinics. . Request was made by Sam Weisman for zoning a lot in his proposed subdivision at the corner of LicArthur and Belton Streets for business. Blackwell Realty requested a change of a lot -at 461 Clifford Street located on the southeast corner of Alameda and Clifford. This request was recommended for denial subject to the property_owners ob- taining property owner consent in accordance with the deed restrictions for such a change. Property owners consent could be obtained for Apartment House District use just as was done in the case of the 500 block on Clifford. .Requests for three Drive -In Theatres were also recommended for disapproval, all of which, however, are subject to the recommendation for amending the Zoning Ordinance for Special Council Permits for Drive - In Theatres. The Drive -In Theatre requests were made by Arnulfo Gonzales on the Edgar Linkenhoger Tract; 1br. Paul Snyder at the southwest corner of the intersection of Kostoryz and South Staples immediately,across from the new High School; and Louis and James Santigos in vacant tract of land at -the northwest corner of the intersection of Alameda and Everhard Road.

The Commission strongly feels that the amendment suggested by the Fire Fighters Local x#936 is unwise and we feel that it would not be well to suggest other changes at the time -this goes to the electorate. The Commission is not unmindful of certain potential changes which should be made in the Charter. Neither is the Commission unmindful that the Charter is not an instrument to be treated lightly and changed merely for expediency. We feel that changes we have suggested can await a future date when other issues will be presented to be important enough to call for an election. 1* =304 While none of the changes we suggest are grevious enough in themselves to be presented to the people at this time, we.feel that should it become necessary to amend the Charter at some future date the recommendations hereby submitted should be considered at such a time.
