PROPERTY OWNED BY SAM VESTER JR., LOCATED IN WEST FRIENDSWOOD SUBDIVISION:
Mayor McComb read a letter from Mr. Sam Vester, Jr., Dated May 9, 1975, as follows:
"Hon. Mayor and City Council
Gentlemen:
This letter is to clarify my position in regard to the transactions in the
West Friendswood Subdivision. I purchased two tracts of land shown on the attached
drawing, one a 7.221 acre tract and the other a 6.178 acre tract.
The 7.221 acre tract was divided into two 3.61 acre tracts and these two tracts
were deeded earlier in the year. The 6.178 acre tract was in the process of being
251
sold as two 3.09 acre tracts; however, I am in the process of cancelling the sale of
these.3.09 acre tracts.
There is nothing I can do about the 7.221 acre tract as it has been conveyed
and the title recorded. The 6.178 acre tract I will hold until such time as I can
sell it as one tract. This 6.178 acre tract is the only land that'I own in the
West Friendswood Subdivision and I certainly have no intention of purchasing any other
land in this subdivision.
S/Samuel H. Vester, Jr."
It was moved by Councilman Griffin, seconded by Councilman Reid that the City Council
action of May 5 be clarified to read as follows:
That Mr. Sam H. Vester, Jr. be advised of our disapproval of his form of subdividing
in the West Friendswood Subdivision which is not in conformance with the subdivision
ordinance. After proper notification, should he not cease and desist from such
activities, the City Attorney is hereby authorized to seek enjuncttve relief to
guarantee Mr. Vester's compliance with our subdivision ordinance.
