desire to have the property rezoned. Mr. Townsend stated that because of the age of

of the City Manager be concurred in and that Application #965-2, Ruben R. Castro, for

corner of Holmes Drive so as not to obstruct the view from the traffic on that street.
Mr. Shaw stated that eight persons had appeared at the hearing opposing the request;
that the Staff had reported 19 notices were mailed, one received in favor, seven in
opposition, and one received in opposition at the hearing; that it was the recommendation
of the Planning Commission that the request be denied, but in lieu thereof "13-4" General
Business District be approved on the basis that it is a more logical extension of "B-4"
zoning of the existing Mall, but further requested that before an occupancy permit is
issued, the owners be required to erect an 8 -foot solid masonry fence along Mt. Vernon
Drive; and that the Staff favored "B-4" on the basis that it is a more logical extension of
the "13-4" zoning immediately adjacent to the east of the subject property, and that possibly
"AB" zoning could be a buffer between the "B-4" and the existing residential property
along Mt. Vernon Drive.
Mr. Joseph Hans spoke on behalf of the applicants and presented a site plan of the
proposed development and described the proposed masonry fence and its location. He stated
that there is not adequate space in the Mall to accommodate all the tenants who wish to locate
there; that the main tenant will be a supermarket and that other tenants will include retail
businesses; explained that there will be no access, either pedestrian or automotive, to and
from the Mall on Mt. Vernon Drive, but that access is proposed on Holmes Drive; stated that
"13-5" Primary Business District zoning was requested instead of "B-4" to satisfy the desires
of the tenants; that careful consideration had been given to the lighting of the center to
discourage vandalism; and that 534 parking spaces are proposed in the development. He
further explained that after a discussion with the Planning Staff, it was decided that the
dead end of Mt. Vernon Drive at Janet Drive should be abandoned and joined to the
abutting property because of the possibility of it's being used as access to the shopping
center. Mr. Hans stated that the "B-4" as recommended by the Planning Commission will
be adequate and will be acceptable , but asked permission to make the construction of the
fence as part of the general construction. He stated that the construction of sidewalks had
been omitted along Holmes Drive and Mt. Vernon Drive to avoid pedestrian access to the
Mall, especially children, because of the safety factor.

Mr. Roy Smith appeared and stated the applicants are asking for o change of zoning
subject to a satisfactory plat, and pointed out that they have attempted to cooperate with
the City in past dealings, and that they will continue to work with the City to the best
interest of the public, and that the sidewalk will be constructed and landscaping done if it
is required.
Mr. Albert Campbell, Jr,, 4918 Janet, appeared and presented a petition containing
signatures of seven residents in the area indicating they would not oppose the requested
zoning change provided the applicants be required to (1) reduce the zoning application
from "B-5" to 'B-4"; (2) erect a fence identical to the one called for in the Padre -Staples
Mall zoning ordinance from Padre -Staples Mall fence along Mt. Vernon to the corner of
Holmes Street, thence to Padre Island Drive without any openings in the fence, and that
the fence be constructed before any construction is permitted on the land included in the
application; and (3) construct a sidewalk between the fence and the curb along Mt. Vernon
and Holmes Street with sod and maintenance of any area between the fence and curb not
covered by the sidewalk.
Others appearing and speaking on behalf of the petition were Mr. Ronald Motes,
5122 Mt. Vernon, stating that his home is located parallel to the 60 -foot setback and
since the fence will end at this point, his yard will be subjected to litter from the Shopping
Center, and stated that he felt the fence should extend around the corner of Mt. Vernon
and on down Holmes Drive with no access on Holmes Drive; Mr. Jerry Torrence, 3938
Lenora Drive, pointed out that access on Holmes Drive would increase traffic on Lenora,
Holmes and Janet Drives; Mrs. Palmer M. Cox, 4941 Janet, stated the property drains
toward the adjacent residences and felt the new paved area would increase the drainage
problem; Mrs. Keith Ewing, 5138 Mt,. Vernon, expressed interest as to whether or not the
fence would be constructed before or after the construction of the buildings.
Motion by Bradley, seconded by Sizemore and passed, that the hearing be closed.
Motion by Roberts, seconded by Bradley and passed, that the foregoing zoning
application be tabled for further consideration.
