White Chapel Blvd. 1. Whatever is approved by City Council, does Bruce Payne have the authority to compromise or change the conditions that Council accepts ? 2. Are these conditions required to be fulfilled prior to zoning change or what happens if they are not met ? 3. Who is the Southlake Official that is responsible for your conditions being implemented ? 4. Should Feedstore BBQ get it's zoning /site plan approved, and decide to continue adding things (such as the new blue dumpster in rear parking lot), what person in Southlake will have compliance enforcement authority ? At 520 S. White Chapel Blvd., stored in the rear yard of this residential zoned property there is : 1. a white temporary bldg. 2. (2) appx. 12 x 8 x 8 storage containers 3. a Feedstore BBQ concession trailer 4. a flat bed trailer All of which should be ordinance violations, however, according to Mr. Garland Wilson's March 17, 2004 letter on the matter, " In summary, no code violations were noted." According to Bruce Payne's interpretation of Southlake's zoning ordinance as it relates to Mr. Lafaver's properties there is nothing wrong here. In summary, the entire situation with Mr. Lafaver's properties has been fostered by Bruce Payne's double standard interpretations. Mr. Payne has knowingly misrepresented facts to Mr. Paul Ward so as to assist Mr. Lafaver's adding (2) outside refrigerated units in July 2003. Mr. Payne has interfered with Code Enforcement by his double standard interpretations. This entire situation is nothing more than "good ole boy" favors. The residents of Southlake never need to forget the experiences of "good ole boy" favors of the past, such as, 1. A former Mayor trying to get a "gas station" approved at NW corner of S. White Chapel & Continental for a friend 2. A former P & Z Chairman sending people to sell neighbors on the merits of apartments that were a part of a project 3. Southlake's real estate agent selling taxpayers land for $3.75 per ft. that had major drainage problems while that same broker was selling land next door to a "good ole boy" for $1.50 per ft. Those that make mistakes and don't learn the lesson are destined to repeat those mistakes. It certainly should concern this whole community that Southlake's Planning Director has the authority to operate by a discriminatory zoning ordinance interpretation. Hopefully, whatever conditions you deem most fair will be implemented without compromise & you will require a clean -up of the salvage yard that is emerging at 520 S. White Chapel and we all can get on with more constructive business.

Roof top refrigeration equipment is screened from view of public right -of- way. 3. Accessory use location across property line is not a violation due to same property owner. 4. Same case as item 3 above. 5. Required parking is provided on site. No violation is noted. 1. Storage of catering trailer is in compliance with section 34.2 of the Zoning Ordinance. It is located behind the main building. 2. Same condition as item 1 in this section and property line issue of item 3 above. In summary, no code violations were noted. Please be advised that any interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance is subject to appeal to the Administrative Official. That official is Bruce Payne, Planning Director.
