Members present: J. F. Palmer, George Caudle and Suzanne Lighton. Members absent: Clark McClinton, Hugh Stubblefield, Henry Shreve, Bryan Walker, Paul Young and Bill Dalton. J. F. Palmer, Chairman called the special meeting to order. Mr. Palmer reported that the purpose of this meeting was to hear and consider the rezoning petition of J. W. Barron, Jr., who was acting in behalf of C. V. and Pearl R. Brown. The petition re- quested the rezoning of part of lot 8 and lot 11 of Block 8 of the County Court Plat from R-4 Multi -family Residential and Dormitory District to C-3 Central Commercial District, The Chairman declared the hearing open for discussion and that those present in favor of the petition would be heard; there was no one present to speak for the petition. The Chairman said those present against the petition would be heard; no one against the rezoning petition was present. There being no one present for or against the petition, the Chairman, therefore, reported that the purpose of the hearing having been accom- plished, the hearing was over. • There was a discussion by the members present. Suzanne Lighton was of the opinion that a study of this area (and other areas within the city) should be made and that consider ation should be given to the rezoning of a larger area rather than the rezoning of one piece of property at a time. George Caudle, too, shared the same opinion; however he said that these property owners could not sit by and wait for the Planning Commission to make a study of the various areas. He said until such a study was made, he was in favor of rezoning a piece of property as it was petitioned for rezoning if a zoning change were needed. • The Chairman said action could not be taken on the petition at this meeting because a quorum was not present. He asked that action on the rezoning petition be put on the agenda of the next regular meeting which would be April 2. Grover Thomas arrived at the meeting. He apologized for being late. Mr. Thomas was present to represent the petitioners. The Chairman summarized the discussion and informed Mfr. Thomas that no action could be taken on the petition at this meeting because a quorum was not present. When asked what was going to be done with the property petitioned for rezoning, Mr. Thomas said that in the future more buildings would be erected on this property and that the parking area would be enlarged. There was no further business and after a general discussion of planning, the meeting was adjourned.
