~ar ~. ~eeney:
I ~ ~e ~er of appro~tely 60 acres in ~e ~s L. Holl~d
S~ey, ~stract No. 624, ~d B.B.B. ~d C.R.R. C~y S~y,
~s~act No. 145, all wi~in ~e Ci~ l~ts of ~p~ll. 27.5 acres
of ~his tract - ~at l~d ~ve~d by ~s L. Holl~d S~ey -
is p~sently zoned ~-2, ~ r~inder of the tract ~ing in ~e
B.B.B. ~d C.R.R. S~y is zoned Agri~lt~e. ~e ~l~-f~ly tract
lies along ~p~ll ~ad ~d is adja~nt %o s~ject tract. ~e a~i~lt~e
l~d in the B.B.B. ~d C.R.R. ~y s~ey fron~ on Highway 121,
North Cop~ll ~ad, ~d lies along a ~ion of ~he nor~e~ ~da~ 6f
s~ject tract, ~ing all of ~at ~act ~ ~e ~nter of ~nton Creek.
I ~. ~n~ed that a classification of ~ would decade the enviro~n~l
~ali~ of ~e area ~d severely overload ~e cDpacity of ~e infra-
s~ct~e ~d c~ity facilities in the effort to acco~a~ ~he
~o~ of ~ts who would i~it ~e pro~sed apar~t c~lex.
~ere is ~ ad~a~ ~t of yacht l~d already zoned ~ in ~e
~diate neig~rh~, ~d no ad~tional d~d for
d~nstra~d. It is always ~ssible ~ rezone to ~ as avail~le l~d
wi~ s~ zoning is ~so~d.
~a~n~ ha~ consis~n~y ~en ~e .Achilles' heel of eve~ ~ity
in which ~ey ar~ b~lt. No ~tter h~ nice ~ey l~k when they are n~
or h~ flashy ~d fashion~le ~ey ~y ~ for awhile, ~ey inevit~ly
~d aut~tically ~c~ ~ar~teed sl~ wi~ ~e passage of t~,
~ed ~d ~ied by ~rsons with no p~ticular ~e to ~e cu.~ity or
interest in ~inten~.
It is ~ belief that ~e residen~al needs of ~he ~ity c~ best be
~t by SF ~d ~ zoning ~d ~at ad~tiona! ~ is not in ~e ~st inte~sts
of ~e City. I ~qe ~at a~ropria~ enviro~ntal ~act studies be
~nde~k~ to dete~ne ~e effect of ~e, p~sed ch~ge on ~e physical,
e~n~c, ~d social ~acter of the City.
