SPEUI '1C USE 12, ROBERT COMP'1DON, AGENT FOR RTi TY GRIFFIN, OWNER, FOR. A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT TO STORE AND SELL LIQUIFIED PETROLEUM INA. COMMERCIAL ZONE (1921 E. BROADWAY) In a general discussion, the Commission stated that granting the permit would not be a general zone change for the area but a specific use for this property only. Code Enforcement Officer Ernie Buenrosto stated the local Fire Code places a 2,000 gallon maximum on -ground storage installation on this type of business which excludes the two 2400 gallon tank trucks Mr. Compton proposes to have on site for off -site refueling. Safety features were discussed with Mr. Compton, including those required by the Railroad Commission, additional safeguards he plans to implement on his own, differences in handling LPG and gasoline since it had previously been a drive-in grocery which sold gasoline and that a residence close to the proposed facility was 33 feet away. John Munsch, a representative of the Fire Department, had spoken against granting the permit based on the hazardous nature of the proposed business which resulted in further concerns by the Commission members. Code Enforcement Officer Ernie Buenrostro stated that he had met with the Fire Chief and the Fire Marshal and had discussed LPG installation and they, personally, had no problems with that type of business as long as it complied with all applicable codes. Because of the conflict in testimony given by John Munsch and information provided by Ernie Buenrostro, the Commission felt it should request a written statement from the Fire Department. A motion was made by Benny Frank, seconded by Al Lentz, that Specific Use 12 be tabled until the Commission receives an official document from the Fire Department saying whether they are for or against and stating why. Motion passed 7 to 0. Chairman Savoie stated the Commission hopef lly would be able to meet in two weeks and resolve this issue.

There was a general discussion among Commission members, Staff and Mr. Whaley, the owner. Code Enforcement Officer Ernie Buenrostro stated that the changes that had been requested had been met with the exception of the approval of the relocated off - site water well by the Texas Department of Health which was pending. Al Lentz suggested that a temporary water 1 ine easement be granted. Mr. Buenrostro stated that Mr. Whaley plans, with the approval of the Department of Health, to develop the tract south of Robin Cove as a second phase. At that time it will be part of the overall subdivision. Benny Frank asked if this were a sanitary easement and Mr. Buenrostro said it was a control easement restricted to any sewer lines or septic systems which is a requirement of the State, but that it was well within the Commission's authority to require a temporary water line easement. It was moved by Benny Frank, seconded by Mary Starr, that the final plat of Robin Cove be approved as submitted with the request for a temporary utility easement to the water well site which is south of the Robin Cove Subdivision. Question was made as to the size of the easement and it was suggested that it be left up to the discretion of the engineering division to determine an appropriate easement. Motion passed 7 to 0.
