The Charter Rule was suspended and the foregoing ordinance was passed by the
following vote: Sizemore, Bonniwell, Bosquez, Branch, Gonzales and Lozano, present
and voting "Aye"; Stark was absent. *(The foregoing action includes Item 7-f(2) of the
City Manager's Reports).
City Manager Townsend reported that a letter had been received from the applicant
of Zoning Case #371-13, E. C. Peterson, Trustee, set for public hear°ng at this time,
requesting that the application be withdrawn without prejudice.
The application was withdrawn as requested.
Mayor Sizemore announced the scheduled public hearing on Application #371-.14,
E. C. Peterson, Trustee, for change of zoning on a 3.616 -acre tract of land out of Lot 14,
Section H, Block 9, Paisley Subdivision out of the Hoffman Tract.
City Manager Townsend explained that the request had been heard by the Planning
Commission March 30, 1971, at which time the applicant's representative stated that garden -
type apartments were proposed. He stated it was the recommendation of both the Staff and
the Planning Commission that the request be denied, but in lieu "R-2" Two-family Dwelling
District be granted.
Mr. Odell Ingle, realtor representing the applicant, appeared and explained that
they are not asking for higher density than "R-2"; that the expense of maintenance and taxes
prevent a fair return on the investment and that the proposed use would resolve the economic
problem. He pointed out its proximity to the Old Armory Site intended for housing the
elderly stating that the two properties did not compare equally economically. He stated that 59
apartment units are proposed; that the site is ideally located near schools, shopping centers,
bus lines, and that the "R-2" zoning recommended by the Planning Commission would be
acceptable and preferred over a Special Council Permit.
No one appeared in opposition to the recommendation of the Planning Commission.
City Manager Townsend stated one letter had been received since the hearing in
opposition to the request. It was determined that the 20 percent rule did not apply in this
case.

Motion by Bonniwell, seconded by Branch and passed, that the hearing be closed.
Motion by Bonniwell, seconded by Lozano and passed, Gonzales voting "Nay", that
the recommendation of the Planning Commission be concurred in and that Application 0371-14,
E. C. Peterson, Trustee, for change of zoning from "R -1B" One -family Dwelling District to
"A-1" Apartment House District on a 3.616 -acre tract of land out of Lot 14, Section H,.
Block 9, Paisley Subdivision out of the Hoffman Tract, located in the 4000 Block of Ramsey
Street, be denied, but in lieu thereof "R-2" Two-family Dwelling District be granted, and
that an ordinance be brought forward effectuating the change.
The new policy of procedure for handling applications for mobile home permits recently
adopted by the Planning Commission was discussed. City Attorney Riggs explained the change
came about because there was some question as to the Commission's authority to grant mobile
home permits, which would in fact be a matter of zoning, and that there were no substantial
guide lines for determining the necessity or the specific requirements in the particular areas
for such permits. He stated the Commission's new policy was that mobile home applications
be processed in the same manner as zoning cases, being heard by the Commission and forwarded
to the Council with recommendation.
Mayor Sizemore called for the City Manager's Reports.
Motion by Bonniwell, seconded by Bosquez and passed, that the City Manager's Reports,
