City Council
City of Southlake
Southlake, Texas
Gentlemen:
In connection with my application for permission to build a
Mobile Home Park, I have met twice with the Planning and
Zoning Commission, and I appreciate very much the careful
consideration they have given this case. After looking over
a copy of the proposed new Zoning Ordinance, I was very care-
ful to make my plans conform in every detail to the regulations
which you are considering for adoption.
Since that time, I have investigated the latest plans for the
new proposed Airport, and I am very disturbed about what may
happen to my property. For this reason, I am objecting to the
procedure which the Commission decided to follow in acting on
my case.
If I understood correctly, the Commission intends to follow a
procedure outlined in the proposed new Ordinance which will
involve time consuming notices and public hearings. Since my
application was made under the existing Ordinance which is now
legal I ask that my case be processed in the~same manner that
the City has handled other cases under this existing law. As
I understand, that would mean that the Zoning Commission simply
makes a recommendation to the City Council and the Council acts
on it.
The Clommission has now had ample time to consider my case, and
I have assured them in writing that my plans will conform to the
proposed new regulations for Mobile Hpme Parks. I therefore
ask that the City Council direct the Zoning Commission to make
their decision no later than their next regular meeting, and
that the City Council act on their recommendation at the earliest
possible time.

I am very concerned that any delay whatsoever may seriously
jeopardize the potential value of my property, and I am sure
the City is concerned that their actions be on a sound legal
basis. Also this will give me some time to make some appeal
for my case if it should be necessary.
Whatever your decision may be, I sincerely appreciate your
giving some consideration to this matter.
Very t my yours,
Kennet with
