Motion carried unanimously. (Same being attached hereto and made a part hereof.) (At this point, Mayor Booker, feeling ill, left the Council Chamber. Mayor Pro Tem Polson presided over the remainder of this meeting.) Planning & Zoning recommendations, attached hereto, were next discussed. The Council was in general agreement to have Lloyd Wolf superimpose the Regional Airport noise cones onto the large wall map of the City. After much discussion, the Council was in general agreement to create a new residential district in the zoning ordinance to be called "A-4" which would permit houses to be built by developers with 1250 square feet of livable floor space on three-quarter acre size lots with a minimum of 100 front feet, and no curbs and gutters to be required. This proposal would be discussed further with the Planning & Zon- ing Commission prior to any final action. A percolation test to be required in future sub- divisions was next discussed and decided that further study was needed. Carter & Burgess recommended that developers have a consultation with them prior to submitting their preliminary plan to the Commission to cure any deficiencies, thereby sav- ing time, etc. The Council was in favor of this, noting that it should not be made compulsory but to be suggested to the developer at the time he applies for a zoning change. Animal control was next discussed. The City Attorney was re- quested to research an "animal at large" type of ordinance suitable for our City at this time. I The letter received from the Regional Postmaster was read aloud.
