We feel that the openinq of a retail LP gas opera- tion will serve our needs as well as the people in the surrounding area better. .�. C.F. Air Freight P.O. Box 61032 DFW Airport, Texas 75261 � Tony Hazelwood ---------------------------------------------- 08/19/80 Mr. Eisen reported that he had received similar petitions of support from the following: Circle Air Frieght; Profit by Air; Burlington Northern Air Freight; W.T.C. Air Freight; Mel Glazier, Carrollton, Texas; Emery Air Freight; and Airborne Air Freight. He then read the following letter into the record: ---------------------------------------------- Mr. Mayor and Members of the City Council: We would like to submit our objections to the �,, proposed construction of a liquidified petroleum ` gas station by Northwest Butane Company on East Wall Street. �" First of all there is the matter of trucks going in and out early in the morning. The last time this proposal was submitted, the Butane Company representative stated the trucks would be left there overnight which would mean the uproar of truck traffic would begin at 4 : 00 or 5 : 00 A.M. Next we object ot the odor of propane. My parents have used propane for years and I know for a fact when propane tanks are filled you can smell it and it has a very unpleasant odor. Our main objection however, is simply the location of such a business. As many accidents as this country has had involving dangerous materials in the last few years, we feel it would be very irresponsible of the Council to take a chance by allowing something as explosive as propane to be stored next to one of the largest churches in Grapevine or the residential neighborhood across the street from it. A business of this sort .�� should be located far away from such a populated area. "'�'" If this proposal is ratified by the Council, our property values are sure to go down. Thank you, , Larry & Wilmadean Sellers 854 East Wall ----------------------------------------------- Upon completion of the correspondence, several members of the Council made statements expressing their concern in regard to allowing such an establishment in the area requested. There being no further discussion, Councilman Oliver made a motion to close the public hearings. The motion was seconded by Councilman Dunn and prevailed by the following vote: Ayes . Tate, Ware, Oliver, Dunn, Shafer, Mullendore, & Brekken Nays . None � Following a short discussion, Councilman Dunn made a motion that both the Service Station Application and the Application to Relocate a Portable Building as submitted by Northwest Butane be denied. The motion was seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Ware and prevailed by the following vote: Ayes . Tate, Ware, Oliver, Dunn, Shafer, Mullendore, & Brekken Nays .
