VINCENTE ROMERO DEVELOPMENT
APPLICATION – Mr.
Romero has applied for permission to construct an accessory building on his
property at 1502 Emory Street. He
started work before we reminded him he needed a development permit so the slab
is already poured. Mr. Williams came to
the meeting to help explain the request.
Mr. Wearing had visited the site and asked if the fence around the slab
was going to come down. Mr. Romero said
it would. Mr. Wearing asked if all of
the stuff in the backyard was going to fit in the accessory building. Mr. Romero said it would. Mr. Eady noted that a building permit was the
next step.
Upon motion of Mr. Robinson, seconded
by Mr. Wearing, the development application was approved. The vote was 4-0.
COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICTS – Mr. Wearing had requested a
discussion about Community Improvement Districts. He suggested this might be an option in
addition to a DDA. The Planning

Districts and Downtown Development Authorities.

concerning a carport on Cindy Court. Following the advice of the Planning
