Mayor Blackmon called for petitions from the audience on matters not scheduled on the

Mr. W. H. Stahl, 4901 Kostoryz, appeared and repeated his request for clarification
of alleged conflicting statements in connection with the granting of Special Council permits,
and regarding the State Statutes as applied to his request for "B-1" zoning requested in 1965.
Mr. Stahl stated the letter he had received from Assistant City Attorney Tom McDowell two
weeks ago did not answer his questions, and that he is making another attempt to get something
definite on the subject. He specifically requested that a plat be marked showing names of
property owners as applied to the 20 percent rule in connection with his former request for
zoning change. Mr. Stahl made a reference of Mayor Blackmon having formerly been consulted
as an attomey in connection with a zoning application in 1965, to which reference Mayor
Blackmon stated that he had never advised or served as Mr. Stahl's attorney in any way, and
that he had been consulted in no way other than in the capacity of City Councilman, to which
he admitted.

City Manager Townsend stated that he would mark the plat as requested by Mr. Stahl
and return it to him.
Mayor Blackmon stated the meeting would be recessed for a brief period in order for the
Zoning and Planning Staff to prepare the Council Chamber for the scheduled zoning cases.
Mayor Blackmon reconvened the meeting and announced the public hearing on three
zoning matters and explained the procedure to be followed.
Mayor Blackmon announced the public hearing on Application 01167-10, Mr. Jim
Selsor, for change ofzoning from "AT" Apartment -Tourist District to "B-1" Neighborhood
Business District for the construction of the Paradise Fishing Pier with accessory retail uses on a
portion of Block Q, Beach Addition.
Larry Wenger, Senior City Planner, located the property on the map; pointed out the
zoning and land use of the surrounding area; stated that at the Commission hearing held
November 21, 1967, Mr. Richard Hatch, attorney, had represented the applicant and
explained that Hurricane Beulah had destroyed the Paradise Fishing Pier which his client wished
to rebuild as soon as possible, and further stated that this type use was urgently needed for
tourists in the area, and that adequate parking would be provided. Mr. Wenger stated that two
persons had appeared and spoke in favor of the request, and that no one had appeared in
opposition; stated that the Staff reported nine notices were mailed, two received in favor and
none In opposition; that it was the recommendation of the Zoning and Planning Commission that
the request be denied, but in lieu thereof a Special Permit be granted for the reconstruction of
the fishing pier with accessory retail uses according to the site plan submitted to the Planning
Commission on December 19, 1967, on file in the Zoning and Planning Office.
Mr. George Shaffer, attorney, appeared representing the applicant, and confirmed the
statements made by Mr. Wenger with regard to the proposed improvements, pointing out that
prior to the recent rezoning of Corpus Christi Beach, this area was zoned for business, and
that the New "AT" zoning does not permit a fishing pier or its related uses. He further
explained that his client planned to have concessions related to the operation of the fishing
pier, and stated that he would reconstruct it according to restrictions imposed by the ordinance
recently passed by the City governing the reconstruction of piers; stated that this proposed use

is the only livelihood of the applicant, and feels it would be in the public interest as well as
the applicant. Mr. Shaffer further stated that Mr. Selsor has made application for a loan
through the Small Business Administration which will not be approved unless proper zoning is
granted, and stated that the Special Permit, as recommended by the Zoning and Planning
Commission, would be agreeable, but that it would not be adequate for the proposed accessory
uses. Mr. Shaffer explained that with regard to the City's desire to acquire frontage property
in this area, the property in question has been deeded to the City, the deed having been
mailed to the City Attorney's office.
City Manager Townsend pointed out that in order to ascertain that the proposed recon-
struction of the Paradise Pier would not be in conflict with the overall plan for Corpus Christi
Beach, he would suggest that a copy of the deed be furnished the Corps of Engineers and await
their response.
Mr. Thompson, owner of the Ebb Tide Motel; Mrs. Stine of the Tropical Motel;
and Mr. Myers of the Paramount Motel, all located on Corpus Christi Beach, appeared and
spoke in favor of the zoning request on the basis that this type use is urgently needed for
tourists in the area.
Noone appeared in opposition to the foregoing request.
Motion by Bradley, seconded by McDaniel and passed, that the hearing be closed.
Motion by Sizemore, seconded by Bradley and passed, that the foregoing application
be tabled for one week pending further information from the Corps of Engineers.
Mayor Blackmon announced the public hearing on Application 01267-1, Mr. W. Sam
Perkins, for change of zoning from "R -1B" One -family Dwelling District to "B-4" General
Business District for shopping center and service station on Lot 14, Block 1, Lake View
Acres.
Senior City Planner Larry Wenger located the property on the map and described the
zoning and land uses of the surrounding territory; stated that at the Commission hearing held
on December 5, 1967, the applicant had appeared and explained that he had purchased the
subject property in 1955 and had paid what he considered a fair price because the deed
restrictions had designated the area as business, and that at that time, it was still outside the
Minutes

City limits. Mr. Wenger stated that one person had appeared in favor and that Attorney
Virgil Howard had represented adjacent property owners, Drs. Harold Siemer and Howard
Findley, as being in opposition. Mr. Wenger stated that one other person had opposed the
request; stated that the Staff reported that five notices were mailed, one received in favor
and one in opposition; that it was the recommendation of the Zoning and Planning Commission
that it be denied, but in lieu thereof "13-1" Neighborhood Business District be granted, and
that the Staff had recommended "B-4" be denied, but in lieu thereof "AB" be approved as a
logical extension of the existing zoning to the West.
Mr. W. Sam Perkins appeared in his own behalf and stated that at the present time
he has no signed leases, but that several interested parties have inquired about the property,
one being for a major service station and other small businesses; stated that when the deed
restrictions were written, following a law suit, the subject property was designated for
business. He further stated that he had supported other requests for zoning changes in the
area, and that they had agreed to go along with him if and when he applied for a zoning
change.
Dr. Harold Siemer appeared in opposition, stating that he and Dr. Howard Findley
own Lots 15 and 16, immediately adjoining the subject property; presented a detailed master
plan for the proposed development of a small hospital, including a pharmacy, medical
supplies, and a 120 -bed nursing home, stated that they felt the subject property should be
zoned "AB" the same as theirs, and that it was their feeling that the noise generated from
uses permitted under this type of zoning would create a nuisance to their proposed develop-
ment, He further stated that the single-family deed restrictions on his property were lifted
in February of 1966, and that the law suit for removing the deed restrictions was before
they were annexed into the City. Dr. Siemer stated that they would not oppose the "AB"
zoning as recommended by the Staff.
Colonel Martin appeared and spoke in opposition, concurring basically with the
statements of Dr. Siemer, stating that he feels that "B-4" zoning immediately next door
would be detrimental to the area.
Mr. Bill Johnston, owner of Lot 10, Block 1, appeared in opposition, stating that
Minutes

Page 10
he had purchased his property for its uniqueness as his home, and that he felt operations per-
mitted under the zoning applied for would not benefit the area, and further stated that
others in the neighborhood felt the requested zoning would not be compatible with the
established character of the area. He stated that "AB" zoning would be acceptable.
Mr. W. H. Stahl appeared and questioned the legality of granting zoning changes
without the applicant having submitted firm plans for the development of the property in
question. Mr. Stahl did not state that he was opposed to the subject request.
Mayor Blackmon explained that an applicant is not required to submit a firm contract
for a proposed development, but that the zoning ordinance sets out what uses can be
operated under the specified zoning.
In rebuttal to the foregoing statements, Mr. Perkins stated that he only wished to
reiterate that if he had not supported the deed restrictions written in the area, including that
owned by Dr. Siemer and Dr. Findley, "they could not have built anything."
No one else appeared in connection with the foregoing zoning request.
Motion by Bradley, seconded by McDaniel and passed that the hearing be closed.
Motion by Bradley, seconded by Sizemore and passed, with Sizemore, Bradley,
McDaniel and Roberts voting "Aye", Lozano voting "Nay", Jimenez abstaining, and Mayor
Blackmon disqualified himself, that the recommendation of the Zoning and Planning Comm-
ission be concurred in and that Application 01267-1, Mr. W. Sam Perkins, for change of
zoning from "R -1B" One -family Dwelling District to "B-4" General Business District for a
shopping center and service station, on Lot 14, Block 1, Lake View Acres, be denied, but
in lieu thereof "B-1" Neighborhood Business District be granted, and that an ordinance be
brought forward effectuating the change.
Dr. Siemer asked the question, that in view of the action of the Council on the
foregoing zoning application, would he be out of order to ask that some type of screening
be stipulated in the ordinance granting the zoning change.
Mayor Blackmon suggested that Dr. Siemer discuss the matter of a fence with
Larry Wenger of the Zoning and Planning Staff.

Mayor Blackmon announced the public hearing on Application #1267-2, Humble Oil
& Refining Company, for change of zoning from "B-1" Neighborhood Business District to
"B-4" General Business District fora service station on Lot 2, Block 1, Guth Parkside Annex
located at Interstate 37.
Larry Wenger presented the application, and pointed out the location on the zoning
and land use map; stated that at the Commission hearing held December 5, 1967, Mr. Glenn
L. Killough of Humble Oil & Refining Company had supported the application and explained
to the Commission that their reason for applying for "B-4" zoning is that they need a larger
sign on the expressway, and pointed out that the Commission had recommended "B-4" zoning
on the request of Edgar Linkenhoger for the adjacent property, and that they felt this
property should be zoned the same. Mr. Wenger stated that no one had opposed the request
at the hearing; that the Staff reported nine notices were mailed, two received in favor and
none in opposition; that it was the recommendation of the Zoning and Planning Commission
that it be approved and that the Staff had concurred in this recommendation.
Mr. Killough was present but stated he had nothing to add to Mr. Wenger's presen-
tation of the application, but in answer to a question of Mayor Pro Tem Sizemore, stated
that this application does not constitute an extension of the Linkenhoger application.
No one appeared in favor or in opposition to the foregoing request.
Motion by Bradley, seconded by Jimenez and passed that the hearing be closed.
Motion by Bradley, seconded by Roberts and passed, that the recommendation of
the Zoning and Planning Commission be concurred in and that Application 01267-2,

District to "B-4" General Business District for a service station on Lot 2, Block 1, Guth
Parkside Annex located at Interstate 37, be approved, and that an ordinance be brought
forward effectuating the change.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was
adjourned.
