owned b.y the same person they
had to be replotted to meet pres-
ent requirements.
The Mayor said that he did not
approve of this situation because
it worked an extreme hardship
on property owners who bought
undersized lots or plotted subdi-
visions before the zoning law by
reducing their property values.
He thought the zoning law should
be changed to allow building on
these plats made before the zon-
ing ordinance.
It was decided to continue issu-
ing permits under present rules
pending receipt of a brief on that
section of the ordinance from the
city attorney.
City Attorney Paul Strong
Informed the council that let-
ters had been sent to residents
delinquent on paving liens. He
said that in a few cases the
people were not financially
able to make the full payment
and recommended that the city
accept small monthly pay-
ments.
The council passed his recom-
mendation with a clause leaving
the individual decisions to the
city manager John O’Neal. The
city attorney was instructed to
file suits without delay against
those who made no effort to meet
their paving payments.
The council instructed investi-
gations on two reported violations
of the zoning law. One involves
a reported plumbing business in
an area zoned for residences and
the other a small real estate of-
fice in a dwelling unit area.
Mayor West said that there had
been some instances of police cars
going outside of the city limits
and instructed the department
to stay in the city limits. He said
that they should not go out of the
city to serve warrants.
The council approved the
purchase of a new radio for an
old police car and discussed
the purchase of a new car.
O’Neal was advised to Issue a
purchase order for a car now
to he paid in the new fiscal
year and accept delivery from
Hargis Motor Company on the
terms suggested by them.
The council approved the ap-
pointment of Dr. W. T. Robin-
son as health officer and he
was sworn in with the instruc-
tions to push a clean-up cam-
paign.

Give Neglected
Areas A Break,
Townsend Urges
Equalized distribution of mu-
nicipal improvements and main-
tenance, with “fair breaks” for
neglected neighborhoods, was
pledged by County Commissioner
R. Jack Townsend today in out-
lining his candidacy for city
councilman-at-large.
Townsend particularly stressed
that he will champion the needs
of areas newly-annexed to the
City of Houston.
“Having become familiar with
the needs of these newly-an-
nexed areas during my two
terms as county commissioner, I
feel especially qualified to work
for getting them the utmost in
municipal improvements and
services,” Townsend added.
“Some may say that an area
should develop its population and
civic growth before getting a

shaped section of his land front-
ing on Oak be rezoned for busi-
ness. He said that the larger sec-
tion was already being used for
commercial purposes.
“I don’t want to stir up any
trouble or cause hard feelings,”
Niday said, “but I don’t think any
objection should come from
people out of hearing distance.”
Last week Cayton had objected
to the rezoning on the grounds
that citizens had definitely indi-
cated in March that the area
should be left open for residential
developments.
Cayton said that if this land
was allowed for business it would
almost automatically give a basis
for commercial zoning in the
whole area. He held that Niday
did not appear at the March hear-
ing when the zoning ordinance
was considered and that there
had been no change in condition*
since that time.
thorough program of municipal
improvements and services. I
think the municipal improve-
ments should be provided
promptly, to accelerate that
growth and development. It has
been my experience that where
a good permanent road or street
is built, growth and development
of that neighborhood follow.”
Townsend said that in civilian
defense and multiple other prob-
lems and projects, Houston and
Harris County must work hand-
in-hand, that on City Council •
countywide viewpoint and under-
standing is needed, and pointed
out that he is the only candiclat#
for councilman-at-large with ex-
perience in countywide govern-
ment operations.
