Consideration of the Final Plat of Sweet Briar Addition was the second item of business on the Agenda. There was some discussion relative to the status of this plat.

After considerable discussion, Commissioner Horne moved that the Sweet Briar Final Plat be approved. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Rhodes. Motion carried. Commissioner Gardner voted no and Commissioner Tishler abstained from voting. Chairman Wells explained that they had an unusual plat to be discussed, which was submitted by Mr. W. B. Davis. He explained that the plat is within the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the city and Mr. Davis had submitted it to the County and they told him they would need a statement from the City of College Station stating that it was all right. After some discussion, Chairman Wells asked Mr. Davis to meet with the City Engineer and City Planner to discuss the plat in more detail and to look the land over. He stated 41111 that the city attorney was to furnish him some information in the next few days concerning the plat. The Subdivision is entitled "Runaway Acres". J • Minutes of Planning and Zoning Commission Page 2 February 16, 1970 The next item on the Agenda was the revision of Subdivision Regulations. The commissioners and chairman went over the proposed ordinance and made all the revisions they felt were necessary. After all the revisions were incorporated, Commissioner Tishler moved that the Subdivision Regulations proposed Ordinance be recommended to the City Council for their review and approval. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Stone. Motion carried. The vote was unanimous. Commissioner Gardner asked what the zoning case number was on a small strip of property just off Highway 30. George Eby, Director of Planning, was asked to research this property for Mr. Gardner. Commissioner Gardner asked that it be noted in the Minutes that east of the city, there is a "dump" ground starting. He stated this was located east of Tarrow Street. He wondered whether the city might place some signs there such as "No Dumping". Also, Commissioner Gardner asked about the location of a Sanitary Landfill. He stated that he felt the Planning and Zoning Commission might be of some assistance in helping the Council to determine a proper location for one. Councilman Ransdell explained that the Council had a site in mind, but that finances were going to be limited and this would definitely be a big consideration. 111. Bill Fitch recommended to the Commission that the city consider an ordinance which would stipulate a severe penalty for anyone who removed the lot markers on a plot of land after they had been set. He stated this removal of markers had caused a lot of problems in the past and felt that possibly, some type of ordinance could be enforced. On motion by Commissioner Rhodes, seconded by Commissioner Stone, the meeting adjourned, subject to call. APPROVED: Acting Chairman ATTEST: i )edf.69-aL-&-Li_ City Secretary las 411.
