NEW BUSINESS
SP -24, REQUEST OF BILL WOOTTON, OWNER, TO RAISE AND SELL LIVE-
STOCK IN AN R -1, SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT ON PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 1325 E. BROADWAY
The Commission discussed the memo from City Health Officer John
Hobson in which he informed that the keeping of emus and ostrich-
es was prohibited inside the city limits.
Further discussion concerned the vagueness of the application
which requests a specific use permit. The Commissioners ex-
pressed the opinion that the request should be specific and
voiced concern that a precedent might be set by allowing a busi-
ness in an R -1 zone.
It was moved by Commissioner Jack Womack, seconded by Commission-
er Emil Beltz, that recommendation be made to Council that SP -24
be denied.
Motion passed 5 to 0.

SP -25, REQUEST OF JAMES AND JANICE PASKET, OWNERS, TO ERECT A
METAL BUILDING FOR USE AS A GENERAL MACHINE SHOP IN A COMMERCIAL
ZONE ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3425 AND 3427 SWENSEN
The Commission discussed the exact location of the site, area
property usage, and the zoning for this site under the City's
former zoning ordinance. Chairman Tetens explained that Ordi-
nance No. 246, the original zoning ordinance, would have allowed
this type of request; however, it was changed when Ordinance No.
509 was enacted because of some gray areas that Ordinance 246
allowed.
It was moved by Commissioner Mary Starr, seconded by Commissioner
Pat Lopez, that recommendation be made to Council that SP -25 be
approved.
Motion passed 5 to 0.
SP -26, REQUEST OF SUZANNE S. STOREY, AGENT FOR CUELLAR, ET AL,
OWNERS, TO BUILD A CHURCH IN AN R -1, SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING
DISTRICT ON PROPERTY LOCATED ON E. BROADWAY
The Commissioners consulted the zoning map in the Chambers and
discussed the zoning of the homes adjacent to this property. It
was noted there is another church nearby.
It was moved by Commissioner Mary Starr, seconded by Commissioner
Emil Beltz, that recommendation be made to Council that SP -26 be
approved.
Motion passed 5 to 0.
