The Invocation was given by the Reverend Leonard E. Christoferson of Grace
Bible Church.
City Secretary T. Ray Kring called the roll of those in attendance.
Motion by Sizemore, seconded by Roberts and passed, that Mayor Blackmon be
excused for cause.
Former Mayor Albert A. Lichtenstein, Sr., appeared as an individual citizen,
and filed with the Council a written statement, urging that the Council consider the
location of the proposed convention center on the aroperty located near the Bayfront
at the North end of Shoreline, covering six blocks west of Water Street between Power
Street and the Ship Channel . He stated that he is heartily in favor of the concept for a
complete convention center, but that he is opposed to the report which has been made
available by the consultants which supports the construction of the convention center
over the water and adjacent to the Coliseum. Mr. Lichtenstein stated that it is his view
that at this location, the convention center can be adequately water -oriented utilizing
the lovely vistas with easy access to the Bayfront, and would not place the center any
farther away from the business district or the Uptown office district than the proposed
water -fill area which would alter the beauty of the present Bayfront, and would help
correct the problem of blighted Downtown areas. He urged that the Council investigate
the possibility of sites other than the one recommended by the local and New York City
consultants, and exercise initiative in expediting this development. (Council Exhibit #4-69)

Mayor Pro Tem Lozano read and presented proclamations relative to the following:
AMERICAN MERCHANT MARINE DAY, May 22, 1969, honoring our Merchant Marines
by displaying the Flag of the United States at homes and other suitable places, received
by Mr. Harry Plomarity; V. F. W. Day, May 24, 1969, urging citizens of Corpus Christi
to contribute generously to its support through purchase of Poppies as evidence of gratitude
to the men of this country who have risked their lives in defense of freedom, received by
members of the local VFW Posts, and the Nueces County 1969 "Buddy Poppy Girl" who
sold the first poppy to Mayor Pro Tem Lozano.
Mayor Pro Tem Lozano announced the scheduled public heart?ig on the proposal
to establish and construct a street width. of 60 feet to extend Flores Street and connect
between Agnes Street and UpRiver Road.
City Manager Townsend explained that the public hearing had been called in
compliance with the provisions of the City Charter regarding such matters; that notice
of the hearing had been duly published and property owners notified; that the construction
of the proposed street in this area had been included and approved in the 1967 Bond Election,
and that a comprehensive study had been made by the City Planning and Public Works Staffs.
Mr. Wm. Anderson, Director of Planning, presented the proposal, and stated that
the establishment of a street traversing this area had been under study for approximately 20
years, and had been made more difficult by the request of J. R. Hatch for a Special Permit
to expand his mobile home operation onto the Massey Tract which he owns. Mr. Anderson
located the area in question on the map, and set out four principal reasons why the street
is needed: (1) to give access to students attending Miller High School from the area
across and south of Agnes Street, stating that approximately 50 percent of the students
come from this area; (2) to relieve traffic congestion and improve circulation in and
around Buccaneer Stadium during activities connected with the school, and special events;
(3) to provide a fire lane somewhere through the area to facilitate service within the limits
of time; and (4) to resolve the pending zoning application of Cecil Burney and Fronk Cech,
whereby the owners have agreed to a street dedication by plat, and the application of

J. R. Hatch for a special permit for a mobile home park. He stated these applicants and
the City are awaiting final decision as to the location of the proposed street.
Mr. Anderson stated that a letter is on file from the Corpus Christi Independent
School District, requesting the establishment of the proposed street, but were not concerned
with the precise location.
Mr. Anderson pointed out on the Land Use Map the following three sketches showing
alternate proposals for extending Flores Street to UpRiver Road, and stated that as to which
plan is the best solution depends on whether zoning and land use will remain as they now
exist, or whether a Special Permit is granted to Mr. Hatch for a Mobile Home Park, and
other factors as they relate to each plan, are to be considered: Land Use Plan #1: This
plan approved by the Planning Staff locates Flores Street partially on the Massey Tract
(owned by Mr. Hatch) and partially on the Morgan Tract (owned by the Sisters of Incarnate
Word), leaving practical depth Tots for single-family residential uses; duplex or apartment
use would also be logical, but would require rezoning; Granada Street could be connected;
the plan would require the condemnation for right of way since the Sisters of Incarnate Word
and Mr. Hatch object to this location for Flores Street. Land Use Plan #2, approved by the
Planning Commission, locates Flores Street adjacent to Westgate Heights and entirely on
the Morgan Tract; right of way would have to be acquired by eminent domain and would
leave a strip of land too shallow for good development, but that Mr. Hatch has stated
that if Flores Street were located according to this plan, he would be interested in acquiring
the remainder of the Morgan Tract, and if this could be arranged, this plan has merit from a
good land use standpoint for expanded Mobile Home Park, and Granada Street could be
directly connected. Land Use Plan #3, would bisect the mobile home operation and leave
two small odd -shaped parcels of land, and is not considered a very desirable plan in relation
to land use; would not provide for a logical future use of the Morgan Tract or feasible
connection with Granada Street; but would take advantage of a voluntary offer by Dr. Jas -
person to sell necessary right of way, including his home, to the City, retaining a portion of
his property on which would remain a small garage apartment, and also would avoid involving
the Sisters of Incarnate Word property which appears there is no possibility for negotiations.

City Manager Townsend stated he feels it advisable that the proposed street be
established; that it has been the consensus of the Staff that the people in the subdivision
would benefit, and if it is determined they do not want the street or would not benefit,
then there would be no reason to pursue the project..
Mrs. A. L. Gaut, 242 Eastgate, stated that she wished to go on record as favoring
Plan #1, which she feels more nearly conforms to the needs of the area. She inquired if
consideration had been given to constructing the proposed in a straight Zine from Agnes to
UpRiver Road.
Mr. Richard Hatch, attorney representing J. R. Hatch, appeared and stated that he
had no personal interest in the land in question. He stated he felt the Council should reconsider
the need for the proposed street; that, in his opinion, the four needs as pointed out by
Mr. Anderson, could be best served by routing the street in a straight line running adjacent
to Westgate Subdivision property line; that because a prior Council has determined there is
a need, does not mean this Council could not make its own determination as to need.
Mr. Hatch suggested that members of the Council make a personal on-site inspection of the
area, and if it is decided there is a need, then proceed with the project, but felt that
the abutting properties would be damaged by the complicated "snake" route as described
by Mr. Anderson; that the cost would be higher to the City, and more land owners to deal
with.
Mr. Jim Ryan, attorney representing Cecil Burney', relative to the tract generally
referred to as the Burney-Cech Tract, stated that there is a definite need for the proposed
access from the area across Agnes Street to Miller High School as was expressed in a letter
from the Board of Corpus Christi Independent School District, which was verified by the
Fire Department. He stated the cost of acquiring right of way for a straight route described
by Mr. Hatch would not be feasible through the Burney-Cech Tract; that the cost would be
prohibitive because it would cut through the very valuable improvements of the Manufacturing
Plant of Caldwell and Sons, which would have to be acquired either by purchase or condem-
nation. He stated that his clients have agreed to dedicate some of the right of way for the
Plan described as 3-B on the map and pay their share of the paving assessments as was agreed

in a letter in 1966 to Mr. H. W. Whitney, and which plan is the approved route of
the Planning Staff. He pointed out that his clients' property represents approximately
one-half of the land involved in the project.
Mr. Harvey Weil, attorney, appeared on behalf of Mr. E. L. Caldwell and
stated that the 8.37 acre tract of land which is north and west of the property shown
on the map as being the Cech Tract was acquired by E. L. Caldwell and Sons, Inc. from
the estate of Frank Cech, which property connects to his manufacturing plant. He stated
that his client is aware of the proposal to take part of the right of way off of his property
and partially off the Burney Tract, and does not find it objectionable; that he is willing
to dedicate the land as agreed. Mr. Weil stated his client, the Staff, and prior Councils,
have been aware of the need for a route through this area for many years, and that the
people had approved the bond issue in 1967. In rebuttal to Mr. Hatch's statement that
the straight route would be the simple. solution, Mr. Weil stated that Mr. Hatch did not
take into account the cost involved. He stated that construction of a road which backs
up to a subdivision does not assist the City's planning. Mr. Weil further stated that, in
his opinion, the proposed street would add to the value of the property in the vicinity and
increase the City's tax roll. He stated that his client has no quarrel with either of the
Staff's recommendations, and that they are willing and ready to donate their portion of
right of way.
Mr. Robert E. Haegelin, appeared representing the Sisters of Incarnate Word,
owners of the land known as the Rand Morgan Tract, and stated that the property was given
the Sisters by Mrs. Rand Morgan; that they are now occupying the old Morgan Home and
using it for educational and retreat purposes; that they have plans for future enlargement
of the property, and that the Sisters are not interested in conveying the property; are not
in the real estate business and do not want to get into it; that he does not see a need for
the proposed construction, and pointed out some alternate routes usable for both students
and the fire department. Mr. Haegelin stated that if the road is built, he is more in agree-
ment with Mr. Hatch, and cannot follow the City's reasoning in recommending the irregular
route through the properties which would damage more land.

Mrs. Irvin L. Fuqua, 3310 Granada, stated she was opposed to the establishment
of the street, particularly the opening of the deadend of Granada Street. She stated that
when they purchased their property there were no through streets, and would prefer it to
remain that way. She also stated she feels there was discrimination when her block was
not paved when the street abutting the Roy Dugger property was paved five or six years
ago, and that the residents feel it was not paved because of the contemplated routing of
the subject street.
City Manager Townsend stated there were no plans for the project five or six
years ago.
Mrs. George J. Stein (outside of notification area), 1301 Stillman, appeared and
stated she represented a group of residents from the other side of the Expressway in Hillcrest,
and pointed out that school children have to go a roundabout way to get to Miller High
School, and that it appears that the straight route as described by Mr. Hatch is more feasible;
that if this street is opened it will become a race track for high school students.
Mr. Emmit Carr appeared in opposition to all of the proposed routes stating the
project would create two race tracks plus one deadend, and suggested alternate routes
which he felt would more adaptable to the needs of the community.
Mrs. William N. Perkins, 3306 Granada, spoke in opposition to the proposed
opening of Granada Street, stating the extra flow of traffic into the area would be a
nuisance and devalue the abutting property.
Mrs. Roger B. Mills spoke on behalf of Rose Hill Cemetery and stated they are
in favor of the construction of the proposed street as recommended by the Staff, and would
pay their share of costs.
Mr. L. H. Gross, representing Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Saunders, stated his clients
were opposed to the routing of the proposed street by their property, and pointed out that
there had been a convenant running with this land in the deed which prohibits the Sisters
of Incarnate Word from conveying the property or any part of it except by written consent
of Mr. and Mrs. Saunders. He stated it will be necessary to acquire 140 feet of property

City Manager Townsend called to the attention of the Council that Legislative
Bill No. 952, is now before the Senate which involves validation of the Hotel -Motel
Tax, and stated it appears the provisions of the Bill would limit the tax, and in order
to be fully informed as to the terms of this amendment, asked concurrence of the Council
that a representative be sent to Austin May 23, 1969, to testify on the City's position that
the City's present Hotel -Motel Tax is valid.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was
adjourned.
