TO: Planning Commission and City Council
FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Request for a zone change from GC -MD (General Commercial -Multiple Family
Dwelling) to RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District for four platted lots
on LaBelle Road.
FILE: 1438-Z
STAFF REPORT
The owners of Lots, 2, 3, 4 and 5, Block 1, Lorry Acres, a recorded subdivision in the
5200 block of LaBelle Road, have signed a petition to rezone their lots so that single
family homes can be permitted and constructed on the vacant Lots 3 and 5. The 1981
Zoning Ordinance, as adopted by Council, prohibits new homes in the GC -MD districts.
Lot 1 at Fannett Road (St. Hwy. 124) and LaBelle is occupied by 250" cellular telephone
transmission tower.
This property was annexed into the City in 1957 and originally zoned commercial in 1964.
Lots 1 through 5 were platted as a subdivision in 1980.
LaBelle Road lies 3200' northeast of Major Drive (FM 364) at the southwest corner of the
City limits.
Exhibits are attached.

Dear Sirs:
Allen LeBlanc (owner of Lot 2, Korry Acres), Gary Korry (owner of Lots 4 & 5) and I (owner of
Lot 3) would Re t ' o request a zone change from GC-MD� to F.S. The purpose for this zone
change is that the aforementioned properties are either vacant or used for single farnily purposes.
I have a buyer for my lot who would like to build a single family home on the property. That use
is not allowed in a GC -MD District. This rezoning will protect the existing homes and allow the
building of a new home.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
J
