ZONE CHANGE APPLICATION 92-01. SUBMITTED BY MATTHEW GOODWIN:
Next for the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider and make
recommendation to the City Council was Zone Change Application 92-
01, submitted by Mr. Matthew Goodwin, of Goodwin and Marshall, Inc.
The property is located at 3210 Parr Lane, east of Parr Park, north
of the O'Dell Subdivision, west of Western Oaks Subdivision and
contains 6.38 acres. The property has 369 feet of frontage on Parr
Lane.
In the March 24, 1992 meeting, the Commission tabled the request to
rezone the property to R-12.5 Single Family. The adjacent property
owners in the Western Oaks Addition expressed concern with Mr.
O�
Goodwin's plans since they had not seen the proposed lot layout.
Their main concern was with the size of the proposed lots adjacent
to their 11R-2011 lots. The Commission had suggested that the
applicant look at the size of the proposed lots adjacent to Western
Oaks and talk with the adjacent property owners in Western Oaks.
The applicant in response to the suggestions from the Commission
sent letters to the adjacent homeowners explaining the proposed'
rezoning, and lot sizes and there had been no response. Staff
stated, they had no response from anyone.
The letter also stated that Zone Change 92-01 was tabled on the
April 21, 1992 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. There was
some concern because the date in the letter showed the wrong
meeting date, it should have been shown tabled as March 24, 1992,
but Commission Members noted that if anyone had wanted to respond
they could have done so by now.
At this point, a motion by Curtis Young and a second by Darlene
Freed was to recommend that Z92-01 be approved, with the prevailing
vote.
Ayes: Cook, Oliver, Meyer, Young and Freed
Nayes: None
Absent: Stamos
Abstain: Martin
