2.MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS
Trail er request Mr. Pete Lanman spoke for Mr. J. H. Williams, who would like to move a trailer onto the Dwyer property behind Mr. Lanmon's home for security purposes. Mr. Lanmon stated that last year the servants quarters burned and that vandals have practically wrecked the main house. For his safety he would like to the trailer moved in temporarily. He has found items stolen from his garage and taken to the house. The trailer would hook onto the present water line and septic tank. He suggested that a small area the size of the trailer would be all that would need to be rezoned so far as they were concerned.
Mr. Spears informed Mr. Lanman that all the Planning Commission would have authority to do would be to rezone on a permanent basis. The Board of Adjustment does not have the power to grant a variance for trailers. The proper procedure would be to apply for rezoning, which could possibly cost several hundred dollars. The Planning Commission, however, has not generally approved of mobile home parks and it would be questionable whether a majority of the Cbmmission would favor rezoning.
Shore stated that previous cases regarding mobile homes have been controversial and he has voted against additional mobile homes.

North referred to previous City Council discussions of a possible amendment to the Zoning Ordinance which would permit mobile homes for security purposes on large areas such as ten acres or so. No action has been taken, however. Otherwise, she1would not approve of rezoning. Tirado stated that he felt the proposed amendment mentioned by North should be pursued.
Raney arrived.
Raney stated that he could not support rezoning, and also felt that there were problems involved in the amendment which created worse problems.
Phillips stated that he would rather not comment, since the last time he was polled, he had changed his position by the time the Commission voted.
Mr. Lanmon and Mr. Williams thanked the Commission for the information and advice. They may approach Council for amending the ordinance to permit trailers in this type of situation.
Mr. and Mr. John Bush were present to request approval of a building permit outside an approved subdivision. This is an addition to a home at 210 West Shadowbend. North has checked the plans and they meet the required setbacks of the Zoning Ordinance.
MOTION WAS MADE by Raney, seconded by North, that the Commission recommend approval of the permit.
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
Fossler arrived.
Raney reported that City Attorney Olson stated that Crown Central applies for the rezoning, although Segelquist is the owner of the surface rights.

North reported that the h.ea ring ca 11 ed for December 19 had not been advertised since there was a question as to whether the hearing was necessary.
MOTION WAS MADE by Tirado, seconded by Fossler, to hold the he aring on January 16 at 8:30 P.M. if the hearing for December 19 had not been advertised and a hearing was necessary.
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
Spears will check with the City Attorney on this.
Spears reported that he had talked with Bill Olson regarding the calling of hearings. Olson stated that we could do it in one hearing, but that he does not recommend it. Spears suggested that the hearings be held by area.
After some discussion of what the areas should be, Raney suggested quadrants, with F. M. 518 and F. M. 2351 forming the divisions.
After additional discussion, the Commission agreed to hold four heari ngs on four quadrants.
Tirado reported on a communication from Walsh Engineering. The model of the water plan has not materialized, so they are pushing the report.
Tirado suggested that City Council be approached to be given a presentation by the Galveston County Water Authority and Walsh Engineering. Tirado will arrange this.
Also, the City needs to seriously consider what it would do if me of the wells shut down.
The Commission agreed that Tirado should request that the City Council arrange a place on the agenda for the report presentation
There being no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned.
