BILL PASTEUR FOR REZONING 2.0585 ACRES IN T. JASPER SURVEY, ABSTRACT 861 , FROM "R-1" TO "C-2" (LOCATED ON SOUTH SERVICE ROAD OF SPUR 350 NEAR ITS INTERCHANGE WITH HIGHWAY 121) Chairman Weber opened the Public Hearing on Zoning Case No. 205, to consider the request of Mr. Bill Pasteur for re- zoning 2.0585 acres in the T. Jasper Survey, Abstract 861 , from "R-1" Single Family Dwelling District to "C-2" Community Business District. Chairman Weber recognized Mr. Bill Pasteur, who introduced Mr. E. Z. Jernigan, one of the owners of the tract in question. Mr. Pasteur advised that Mr. Jernigan, his brother and sister own the property, which was purchased by Mr. Jernigan's father in 1934 and had been in the family for many years prior to that time. Mr. Pasteur pointed out that the property is near the interchange of Spur 350 with Highway 121 and is surrounded by commercially zoned property and highway frontage. Mr. Pasteur commented that, in his opinion, the tract in question is one of few small tracts which could be utilized by a small enterprize without ruining a larger tract -- that the proximity of the proposed community hospital makes this an ideal site for doctor's clinics, and the residential development to the South and proposed apartment developments in the area create a fine retail market. Mr. Pasteur stated that there are no definite plans for development of the tract in question, at this time; however, approxi- mately three (3) years ago this property was evaluated at $10,000.00 per acre and this year the total evaluation was raised to $29,000.00 -- that this is prime commercial property and is not suitable for residential development. Chairman Weber called for opponents in this zoning case. There being none, the Public Hearing was closed. ihr (Page Four, Minutes of Regular Meeting of Planning and Zoning Commission, September 15, 1970) ,,• Mr. Arth made a motion to recommend approval of the rezoning of 2.0585 acres in the T.
