Topic Ordinance authorizing acceptance and
appropriation of a donation in the amount of
$100,000 from the Cheniere Foundation;
Agenda Item Number 20
Describe Feedback:
Why do you, our representatives of this city,
continue to put yourselves and the community
members in positions to be manipulated by these
industries? One hundred thousand dollars is not
nearly enough to adequately house and protect the
houseless population of this community, yet here
we are considering if we should or shouldn't take
this bribe from Cheniere. Why not ask them to take
that money and invest it into fixing their tanks that
had cracks in them or updating their alarm systems
as to prevent situations like that from ever
occurring. Does this money essentially give them
allowance to pollute and destroy the environment
and harm our communities? We want help for our
most disenfranchised community members, but we
don't want or need it from industries that have no
problem contaminating our air and water for their

of their negligence or destruction. They are in fact
not helping.

Short Term Rentals
Short Term Rentals Update
Please find a way to NOT allow short term rentals in
the housing area of the Padre Island Property
Owners Association area of North Padre. We
purchased a home in that area with he
understanding that our neighbors would NOT be
there for just the weekend. A neighbor that is there
for the weekend treats the neighborhood
differently and acts completely differently than
someone that is prepared to live there a month or
years.

Topic Short term rentals in single family zoning on Padre
Island
Agenda Item Number
Describe Feedback:
Short term rentals
We are senior citizens and spent our life savings to
move from Virginia and retire and live in a canal
home. I grew up in Corpus Christi and this had been
a long time dream. We pay very high taxes to live
here. We chose our home because it is quiet and we
can relax here after my husband's 25 yr Navy
career. A couple of houses have been used as short
term rentals even though not allowed. Loud noise
(almost all night) trash in the canal and street,
speeding down our quiet street. Not
acceptable! Please DO NOT allow STRs in the single

Topic Opposition to STRs on North Padre
Agenda Item Number STR
Describe Feedback: As a residing homeowner on North Padre Island for
11 years, and a previous owner of an STR unit for
five years on this island in a commercial area, I am
highly opposed to any allowance of STR locations
within areas of private home ownership.
Serving as President of the HOA where I owned a
unit, I was privy to all of the issues that arose due to
having a multitude of people come and go at these
STR's. Aside from the typical building maintenance
issues that arose, there were many, many issues
due to negligence or abuse from the varied renters.
Parking, noise, litter, trespassing, altercations, and

facilities damage.
I have experienced the challenges of come and go
renters directly across the street from my home. I
have interacted with the homeowner, and many of
the come and go renters. Though not an advertised
location, it is obvious to me what is happening
there. I had documented license plates, counted
noses, and taken pictures during the summer
months.
NO STRs IN FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS.

Topic Short Term Rentals in Residential Areas
Agenda Item Number Unknown
Describe Feedback: As a full time resident of North Padre Island, I
believe that short term rentals should be prohibited
in residential areas. We do not need the parties, the
disrespect, or the dangers that come with
vacationers who have no stake in our community.
We already have enough problems with residents
who can't seem to abide by the POA rules and
regulations, why allow outsiders to abuse them
even further?
I came here to slow down and enjoy my life before
retirement so that when I do retire, I'm already

where I want to be. If you allow STRs in our
residential areas, you're going to ruin the tranquility
of your residents' lifestyles and force them to seek
peace elsewhere. Do you really want that to
happen? I don't.

Topic Short Term Rentals in Residential RS6
neighborhoods
Agenda Item Number Gb
Describe Feedback: As island residents, my family and I are opposed to
Short Term Rentals inside our residential RS6
neighborhoods. STRs are welcomed in areas zoned
as such. Our residential neighborhoods should be a
place to peacefully enjoy our homes. STRs disrupt
(with noise, crowding, litter, etc) our lives. The
island residents are overwhelmingly against this
occurrence, and we encourage the city staff and
council to consider our requests.
