Mayor Blackmon read and presented a proclamation designating October 6 - 12,
1968, as NATIONAL EMPLOY THE HANDICAPPED WEEK in the City of Corpus Christi, and
urged all citizens, organizations and groups to devote full efforts to presenting
the true facts about the handicapped to the attention of the public, and specifi-
cally, the employers of the City.

sewer plant and lines to serve Laguna Business Center and adjacent area, from the

Mayor Blackmon announced the public hearing on the closing of the alley
located between Lots 1 through 8 and 9 and 10, located between the business area
and residential area in South Park Addition.
City Manager Townsend described the location of the alley as being partly
behind the South Park Shopping Center and being a part of an alley running all the
way from Weber to Merrimac, and opening onto Padre Island Drive; stated that it has
not been developed as an alley, and explained that the application to close had
been brought about by rather complex circumstances, inasmuch as a 20 -foot sign

had been erected at this location in 1961 by Rollins Outdoor Advertising Company
and has been there as a nonconforming use; that a few months ago a member of the
City Staff notified the Rollins Company that the sign was an encroachment on public
right of way and issued an order that it be removed; that Mr. Cecil Allen of Frank's
Inc., had since purchased the property and that both the Rollins Company and Frank's.
would like to have the sign remain. Mr. Townsend stated that following communi-
cations with the Staff, the request to close the alley had resulted, and that the
request had been filed by Mr. Lawrence Link, Manager of the Rollins Advertising
Company. He reported that the affected City Departments had been contacted and
that the Public Utilities Department advised of the existence of water and gas lines
and recommended the continued operation of the facilities; that the Fire Depart-
ment had no objections; that the Public Works Department recommended that if the
alley is closed, it be paved with asphalt and a curb and gutter section be installed
along the property line for the purpose of collecting the water and draining it
either on Merrimac Street or on Padre Island Drive; that a standard fence be con-
structed along the property line to separate the residential property and the
commercial property; that the alley remain open for public use, but if closed,
an easement be retained; and that the large billboard sign be removed since it is
on public property, unless rent is paid to the City.
Mr. Lawrence Link appeared on behalf of the request and stated that the
alley has been an eyesore for some time; that it is useless as an alley and is
only being used for ingress and egress to Mr. Cecil Allen's business, and stated
that at least one-half of the sign will be used by Frank's Inc.
Mr. Cecil Allen spoke in favor of the request and stated that they plan
to black -top the entire alley; that it is blocked off by abutting property owners'
fences and is serving no purpose other than passage to and from his business.
Mr. Augustine De La Garza, 5013 Monitor, stated he had no objection to
the proposed closing of the alley.
City Manager Townsend stated that he concurred in the recommendation of
the Public Works Department as previously stated.
Motion by McDaniel, seconded by Roberts and passed, that the hearing be
closed.
