FROM - Citizens of the neighborhood ~t has lately come to our attention that MARCAL, INC. has requested a conditional use permit for the construction of three sorority houses to belocated.west of Ml\I1son Drive and between Dominic Drive and University Oaks Drive. Consultation with Mr. Al Mayo, City Planner, reveals that three additional sorority houses are planned for the area. Sororittes are not recognized by Texas A&M University, and the are not regulated by the University. Unregulated activities by large numbers of students can only lead to degradation of the neighborhood. In order' to protect the residential integrity of the neighborhood, we, the undersigned, respectfully request that the request of MARCAL, INC. be dellied. ,'NAME, , , & ...,.. . .;..Th, ~~ , .~~/, > /7 () '0_)(, ~,r. ~ CJ ~ ,..
