The following agenda came before the commission:

m3. Mrs. Helen Pugh
Chairman Holleman read minutes of meeting of January 9, 1963.
Item 1.
Mr. J. A. Orr gave his reasons why the preliminary plat has to be plotted
the way it is. The ridge line running parallel to Francis Drive falls about
300 feet north of Francis Drive and the area north of that cannot presently
be sewered by gravity. The terrain of the remaining part of the property is
• of such nature that it cannot be developed without the consideration of the
Putz and Luza property in connection with it and this property is outside of
the present city limits of College Station.
Mr. Smith of the committee moved that the Preliminary Plat of Carter's
Grove 2nd Installment dated November 1962 including Lots 1 through 11 of Block
A and Lots 1 through 10 of Block B be approved as submitted. Seconded by
® Sorenson. Motion carried.
Item 2.
Submission by O. M. Holt, owner, of a preliminary plat resubdivision of
0 part of Lots 9 and 10, Woodland Estates. Sorenson moved the approval of
the above preliminary plat including Lots 1 through 8 with a provision that
a 10 foot easement be provided along the backs of these eight lots. Smith
seconded the motion. Motion carried.

65 Mrs. Helen Pugh appeared before the commission relative to rezoning of
property on Meadowland Street so that apartments can be built on it. Mr.
Holleman read the previous action taken by the commission on this matter on
0 September 5, 1962 and on August 28, 1962, and also a letter from Mayor
0 (3 Langford dated November 28, 1962. Mrs. Pugh asked for some action to be
m taken on their previous request. Mr. Boswell reported that the A & M College
Engineer came to the City Hall and checked the ownership of property and
indicated the possibility of a possible action of what would be an extension
. of Meadowland Street to the college's property on the north.
Mr. Smith moved that we ask the city manager to ascertain if this matter
will be brought before the Board of Directors of A & M College at the next
meeting and if not to investigate what we need to do to bring it before
them at a later date. Mr. Boswell is to notify Chairman Holleman so he can
call the rest of the commission together for possible further action.
Further, that based on what we are able to learn that we ascertain whether
or not to continue to pursue the approval of going out on college property.
In the event we cannot satisfactorily use the college property within a
reasonable amount of time that we ask the City Engineer investigate the
y possible improvement of Meadowland Street extending from Farm Road 60 through
W the Pugh Property. It was also moved that we undertake action at the very
V) earliest opportunity on this matter. LaMotte seconded the motion. The motion
Wcarried.
