H. Ransdell. Commission Members Absent: Wendell Horne and City Secretary Lynda Swoveland. Visitors Present: Kate Thomas, Bill Cooley, Ray Abbott, and B. R. Craig. The Chairman called the meeting to order at 7:00 P.M. in the Council Room of the City of College Station, Texas. The minutes of the July 21, 1969 meeting were approved as written. Chairman Wells, simply as a matter of information, quoted from a magazine which he had received, that sales tax allocation for the first quarter of 1969 for the City of College Station was $48,574.48 as opposed to $103,387.00 for the City of Bryan. This would tend to indicate that the City of College Station is improving its business position in terms of sales tax revenue. The first item of business was the consideration of a change in the Mobile Home Ordinance from 8 lots per acre to 10 lots per acre. New legislation presently under consideration will govern standards of construction, and when such legislation becomes a law, it should also be incorporated into the Mobile Home Ordinance. A proposed ordinance which would amend Ordinance No. 627 by changing the density allowed in Mobile Home Parks was distributed to commission members by Chairman Wells. Commissioner Gardner felt that adequate time had not been given to the existing ordinance to find out whether or not it would work. Commissioner Gardner felt that there were a number of variables, such as parks and open space requirements, lot size, and the number of units which should also be considered if amendments were going to be made to the Mobile Home Ordinance. Commissioner Gardner moved that action to amend the Mobile Home Ordinance be deferred for further study of other possible revisions to the ordinance. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Janne. Motion carried. The vote was unanimous. The second item of business was a revised rezoning request from Mr. Dorsey McCrory for approximately 10 acres of land which is located on the west by pass between Highway 6 and Wellborn Road from District No. 1, First Dwelling House District, to District No. 4, First Business District. Chairman Wells asked Mr. McCrory if he would be interested in revising his request to Neighborhood Business. Mr. McCrory said that this would meet with his approval. Motion was made by Commissioner Janne to recommend to the council that this area be rezoned to Neighborhood Business, subject to the following conditions: 1. Dedication of the necessary drainage easements as worked out by the . subdivider's engineer, and approved by the city engineer. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Baur. Motion carried. Commissioner Gardner was recorded as voting "no. " The third item of business on the agenda was a revised rezoning request from 411/ Jim O'Brien for approximately 23.2 acres in the Morgan Rector League on the east side of Highway 30 approximately one-half mile north of Highway 6 from District No. 1, First Dwelling HousDistrict, to District No. 3, Apartment House District. After a lengthy discussion among the commission members on drainage problems surrounding the property in question, motion was made by Commissioner Baur to recommend approval of the rezoning request subject to: 1. Dedication of necessary drainage easements as worked out by the subdivider's engineer, and approved by the city engineer. Motion seconded by Commissioner Janne. Motion carried. Vote was unanimous. Commissioner O'Brien was recorded as abstaining. Commissioner O'Brien moved that the meeting adjourn. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Baur.
