up the question of allowing a Package Store in a completely

Mlemo to Board Members:
Ivy Fossiler has been dropped for the Board of Adjustment
by the members of the City Council. The Council and i;�Iayor
also appoir_ted Ray Nelson as a regular member.
This still leaves our records in doubt about Mr. 'Richard
Yancey. I had heard tht-t they might have to moire out of
Friendswood until their new home was completed. If anyone
knows please contacted me .
Also the City Ylanager needs a little prodding about the
skating rink not being moved by the deadline of July 23.
Mr. TDTorgan inquired as to the correct date and hasn' t
seemed to have acted on it.

' Gent lemon:
This request was made by phone to me from birs. Hicks
on Aug. 16, 1975. Mrs. Hicks has an extra large setback
on her front yard. She would like to put a high privacy
fence between her house and the new day care center on
the right of her. She did not state how far infront of
the house she planned on taking the fence. She talked
about a height of six feet. The builders of the center
have infringed on her property several times. Such as
using her water and hose without asking while she is
away from home and et o.
Please make a note of this meeting on your calendars as
I will not be able to call you on the phone to remihd
each of you. Sept.l, 1975 I will be in the Clear Lake
Hospital for tests and surgery.
Also if you can drop by the property for a look, Pars. Hicks
has several problems there that may affect your decisions
or help your understanding of the outcome of the tPenceibeing
there or not.
Thank you and sincerely yours ,
