CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - APRIL 21, 1986
A Public Hearing was held at 6:55 p.m. Steve and Kathy Smith regarding the annexation of their property of Race St. near the Trim Gym (C-3 zoning). Attorney Jim Lyons represented the property owners. There was no opposition.
An Appeal Hearing was held at 7:00 p.m. for Steve Howerton, 2204 Hampton Dr. regarding the opening of a driveway through from Hampton Dr. to Southwest Dr. Mr. Howerton appealed the decision of the MAPC regarding the extension of the driveway. Several residents contended opening the street would pose traffic problems in the R-1 zoned area. Donn Mixon, Attorney for Lone Star, Inc. stated the company has a right to build a driveway on its property and added the MAPC required the driveway when the development plan was brought before the commission. The Mayor asked the City Attorney for his legal opinion regarding the issue. He stated the common law rights of property owners provide that it is legally permissible for them to have reasonable ingress and egress to their property. After much discussion, Mr. Sanderson moved, seconded by Mr. Park to table the matter until the property can be surveyed to determine ownership of the property, including the status of Hampton Drive, a platted but never opened street. Aldermen Park, Stricklin, Hinson, Bridger, Hannah, Strauser, Sanderson, Culpepper, Mays, and Nix voted aye. Aldermen Evans and Shelton voted nay. The Mayor instructed the City Engineer to research the matter and report back to the Council.
