On Site Public Hearing for 107. 11 acres in De La Pina for annexation: This acreage is located between Highway 78, Kreymer Lane, Old Highway 78 and Eubanks Road. There being no opposition or questions concerning this annexation, the public hearing was closed and Council returned to the Chambers. Attorney Larry Jackson gave a ruling on the City not hav- ing proper letters from property owners requesting annexation. The City can take action, but these letters have to be in our files prior to the -A►. ordinance being signed granting annexation. Motion was made by Council- man Williams to annex these 107. 11 acres. Seconded by Councilman Adams, all in favor. Public Hearing for rezoning Rush Creek II from SF1 and SF2: Meeting was opened to public, there being no questions or opposition, public hearing was closed. Planning and Zoning recommended this rezoning be approved. Motion was made by Councilman Martin to accept zoning change from SF1 to SF2. Seconded by Councilman Simmons, all in favor. Park Proration Charge: I. W. Santry has prepared a draft for consideration and approval . There is a park proration charge in other cities such as Allen and Plano. This sets forth a process by which a developer sets aside a tract of land or cash amount based on fair market value into Escrow account for purchasing land for a park. Mr. Santry suggested this be tabled until the Council has had time to read and study the ordinance further. This ordinance is in accordance with same values as the City of Allen. Mr. Santry would like for Planning and Zoning to see this if Council says they will enforce such an ordinance. All the Council agreed tp endorse this item with more detail study. Mayor Squires suggested this not be made a part of the Zoning Ordinance or the Subdivision Regulations. Melvin St. John feels this is not fair to the developers. People in new subdivisions will have to pay more than their fair share. Melvin feels there should be a public hearing before this is adopted. Mayor Squires "^ assured Melvin that there would be a meeting with developers as he had done in the past.

Comments from Director of Chamber of Commerce: Chamber is supporting a new fire station on the ground of the new water tower. The building will have 2800 square feet, all brick and will be built through donated funds. Mike Rawlings would like to see the doors changed form 10 x 12 to 12 x 12 in order to have enough clarence.
