Subject: Buffer Wall for Golden Keys Learning Center
Jennifer,
As we discussed, we will replace the Indian Hawthorns on the buffer with evergreen plants that are 3 feet
tall, planted 2 feet apart (center to center). This will be done by Wednesday, January 21st by 12:00 noon.
Our thanks to you and Natalie for patience and assistence.

Re: Hedge Wall for Golden Keys Learning Center
Attn: Ms. Jennifer Reeves
Dear Ms. Reeves:
The back buffer area of Golden Keys Learning Center, located at 246 Southwest
Parkway, has been planted with the following:
• 40 — 15 gallon Wax Myrtles greater than 6 feet tall, planted 3 feet apart
• 35 — 5 gallon Indian Hawthorns, planted 3 feet apart
We chose wax myrtles because they do well in this area. However, because of the time
of year (winter) the plant's foliage is not dense. It is our understanding that in the spring
the foliage will be more dense.
After reviewing all the notes regarding the hedge wall, we found no reference to the fact
that the 5 gallon plants had to be 3 feet tall. If it is noted, this was an oversight on our
part.
We propose to purchase and plant Red Tip Photinas between the existing Indian
Hawthorns. These will be 5 gallon plants, at least 3 feet tall. We contacted Brazos
Valley Tree Farm. They are trying to find these for us.
We would like to meet with you and your supervisor at the building site to discuss this_
Please contact Herbert Booker at 862 -7926 or Jackie Booker at 458 -4160 as soon as
possible. Hopefully, this matter we can be resolved today so that we can get our
Certificate of Occupancy and open for business tomorrow. We have an number of
parents who are committed to bringing their children to Golden Keys Learning Center.
Sincerely,

A. Purpose
The purpose of this Section is to establish the guidelines for off - street parking

1. Eliminate the occurrence of non - resident on- street parking in adjoining
neighborhoods;
2. Avoid the traffic congestion and public safety hazards caused by a failure
to provide such parking spaces; and
3. Expedite the movement of traffic on public thoroughfares in a safe
manner, thus increasing the carrying capacity of the streets and reducing
the amount of land required for streets, thereby lowering the cost to both
the property owner and the City.
B. Off - Street Parking Spaces Required
1. In all districts, for all uses, at the time any building or structure is
erected, enlarged, or increased in capacity, or at any time any other use
is established, there shall be off - street parking spaces provided for motor

amounts specified by this Section, or when off - street parking facilities are
provided but not required, said off - street parking facilities shall comply
with the minimum requirements for parking and maneuvering space as
specified in this Section.
3. It shall be unlawful to discontinue or dispense with, or cause the
discontinuance or reduction of, the required parking facilities apart from
the discontinuance of the building, use, or structure without establishing
alternative off - street parking facilities that meet these requirements.
C. Dimensions and Access
This Section applies to any development or redevelopment of uses other than
single - family residential, duplexes, or townhouses unless otherwise noted.
1. Each off - street parking space for automobiles shall have an area of not
less than 9 feet by 20 feet and each stall shall be striped. This standard
shall apply for off - street parking for all uses including single - family
residential, duplexes, and townhouses. Single- family residential and
townhouses are not required to stripe parking spaces.
2. An 18 -foot paved space (90 degree only) may be utilized where the space

public alley. This standard shall apply for off - street parking for all uses
including single - family residential, duplexes, and townhouses.
)4. Parking lots located within 15 feet of a public right -of -way shall have a
maximum of seven contiguous spaces separated by an 18 foot by 20 foot
