City Council to explain to the voters the capital improvements involved in the various
bond issues of the forthcoming special election on June 27, 1964; and particularly
commended Ray Peterson and Bill Neyland for their efforts to obtain financial contri-

individual to help this community to grow by supporting all of t issues of tne
bond election.
Paul Montemayor, representative of United Steel Workers Union of the A.F.L-C.I.O.,
reported that the Political Action Committee endorses all of the issues of the
bond election with the exception of Proposition No. 1 and No. 4, and stated
that the reasons for not endorsing No. 1 is that they feel the proposed park-
ing lot and restaurant will be a good source of revenue and should be operated
by the City instead of by concession so that all revenue received will become
a part of City funds. Mr. Montemayor added that they feel it should be
stipulated in all specifications for construction that a stated percent of the
jobs involved must be filled by residents of Corpus Christi.
William Keys, Vice-chairman of tae Citizens Bond Coordinating Committee,
was also present in support of the issues of the bond election.
Mayor Barnard thanked the Committee for its fine report, and read the
following as his official statement:
"I have always believed that Corpus Christi has a great future. A new
spirit seems to have been born that not only is inspirational to us on
the City Council but absolutely assures the continued progress of the City
we all love so much.
"With so many fine people of the City contributing dollars, energy and
talents to a cause, we cannot fail to reach the destiny designed for us.
"Thank you, everyone, who has helped in this bond election, and let us
keep alive the community effort that has prevailed to the redounding
glory of Corpus Christi."
Mayor Barnard announced the public hearing on the closing of portions of
Lily, Rose, and Buffalo Streets.
Obie Etheridge, City Engineer, displayed a map showing the existing street
pattern of the area and the proposed new street pattern to eliminate the multiple
intersection of streets in the Nueces Bay Boulevard -Lawrence Drive intersection
area; pointed out the portions of the streets proposed to be abandoned to
abutting property owners and tne proposed relocations to improve the situation
from a traffic and safety standpoint; reported receipt of letters from St. John
Lutheran Church, J. H. Mayberry, and the Crosbys, most of tne abutting property
owners, in favor of the proposal; and explained that the estimated cost of relocating
tne streets was approximately $10,000.00.

City Manager Whitney reported approval of the proposal by all City Depart-
ments and that it was recommended that the City retain utility easements in the
portions of the streets to be abandoned, and give quitclaim deeds to the abutting
property owners for title clarity; and presented a letter in favor of the closings
from an abutting property owner not able to be present.
Mayor Barnard received for record and read the letter of Ben F. McDonald,
owner of abutting property on Rose Street that fronts on Buffalo, in favor of the
closings.
John Mayberry, abutting property owner on the east side of Rose Street, ap-
peared in favor of the proposals
Sid Allison, speaking for the Sunset Building Association, owner of the corner
property at Lawrence Drive and Buffalo, appeared in favor of the proposal provided
the Association received just compensation for the required right of way for the pro-
posed relocation of Buffalo.
W. D. Beddingfield, 517 Breckenridge, a deacon of the Forrest Park Baptist
Church, appeared in opposition on the basis that it would deter people from getting
to the church, and would devalue the church property according to the written appraisal
by Gilbert Eisenberg in which he appraised the church property at $200,000,
Mrs. Myrtle Pickett, representing D. W. Grant, owner of Lot 6, Block 7, the
southeast corner of Lily and Antelope, appeared in opposition to the closing of the
portions of Lily and Rose on the basis that it would increase the parking problem
on Antelope for St, John Lutheran Church, and would eliminate the access for his 6
rental units to the freeway.
Mildred Davidson, property owner in Baymore Addition, objected to the closing
of Rose Street on the basis that it would inconvenience her in getting to and from
the Post Office which her work requires her to do twice a day to mail reports.
Charles Lyman, attorney representing Crystal Petroleum Company, owner of
triangular shaped property bounded by Lawrence Drive, Buffalo and Rose Streets, owned
and operated as a filling station, pointed out the location of the pumps on the
portion of Buffalo proposed to be closed, and explained the proposal would amount
almost to condemnation of the filling station operation since it would leave only

the Lawrence Drive pumps and would eliminate the potential business from vehicles
travelling Rose and Buffalo Streets at this area.
Mrs. George Hudson, 532 Breckenridge, representing the Missionary Society
of the Forrest Park Baptist Church, appeared in opposition to the closings on the
basis that it would eliminate the various accesses to the church.
S. D. King, 3317 Southland, spoke in opposition to the closings on the basis
of the convenient access to the church.
Reverend John Jackson, pastor of the church, was opposed on the basis that
the 3 or 4 residents immediately behind the church property would not be able to get
through to Nueces Bay Boulevard if Rose Street is closed.
Commissioner Wallace suggested the closing of that portion of Buffalo between
Rose and Lawrence, leaving Buffalo and Rose Street a "T" street.
Mayor Barnard felt the Council needed to study the problems of the area before
acting on the proposal in view of the objections offered at this hearing.
Motion by de Leon, seconded by Young and passed that the hearing be closed.
Motion by de Leon, seconded by Maldonado and passed that the matter be taken
under advisement.
Mayor Barnard called for the City Manager's Reports.

package treatment plant for the Jackson Woods Subdivision be approved; and authority

William C. Nichols, taxicab driver, presented his written request for an
appeal from the decision of the Taxicab Inspector in revoking his Taxicab Permit.
With the consent of the Council, Mayor Barnard set the date for public hear -
lag on Mr. Nichols'appeal for the regular meeting on July 1, 1964, convening at
2:00 p.m.
A representative of the Molina Civic Association presented and read a peti-
tion of approximately 276 signatures, requesting the extension of Bloomington and
Villarreal Streets is the Molina Subdivision, to meet Archdale Drive aad Dercey re-
spectively; and pointed out on a map the undesirable alternate routes the approxi-
mately 350 school children living in the area will have to travel to attend the new
John F. Kennedy Elementary School which is expected to be opened in September.
(Petition #10).
City Manager Whitney explained that the developer of the tract has filed a
preliminary plat on a portion of the area, but the balance of the area is now farm
load; that the City Pluming Staff is well aware of the situation and agrees that
the streets should be extended by the time the new school is ready; but that the
developer has not indicated any plans for the streets for this subdivision.
The petition was received, and the matter referred to the City Manager to
develop plans for the streets in question and to negotiate with the developer for
the submission of final plat, and to bring forward to the Council his recommenda-
tions as soon as possible.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was
adjourned,
