SPEAKING FOR THE PROPOSED REQUEST:
1. City Manager Jim DeShazer informed that back in 1980, Alta Carbone,
representing her mother, went through the zone change process and upon approval,
the zoning of the property was changed from General Business to Office and Profes-
sional. When the revisions to the Zoning Ordinance went into effect in 1986 and
the maps were reprinted, that property was inadvertently zoned General Business.
The City Staff, Mr. DeShazer advised, initiated this change to correct the error
on the zoning map.
2. Mr. Calvin Jones, 2237 N. Park. Mr. Jones stated that he had a tentative
agreement with the owner to purchase the property. His intentions were to build a
duplex on this property.

1. Mary Ontiveros, 2233 N. Park. Ms. Ontiveros expressed her concern about what
will be built on this property.
2. Emma Rodriguez, 2243 N. Park. Ms. Rodriquez stated she has lived in the area
for over 30 years and does not want to see any business come into it.
QUESTION AND ANSWER PERIOD
In discussions between Council, Planning & Zoning members and City Staff, it was
pointed out that as long as two zones are compatible, it does not constitute spot
zoning. Mr. Jones was informed that under an Office and Professional zoning a
request for a Specific Use permit would be required to build a duplex on the
property. It was also mentioned that under General Business zoning a duplex would
not be allowed.
