Drive-In Theatre
Given Approval
Building Permits Granted for 2 New
Plants; One for Pitts Industries
The City Council Tuesday night
accepted the recommendation of
the City Plan Commission and
granted John Rowley a special
permit to construct a drive-in
theatre west of Hwy. 35-E and
fronting on the south side of FM
Road 1380.
Rowley, head of the Big-Tex
Theaters, Inc. chain, told council-
men that the theatre would be a
family-type facility and would
be an asset to the community.
Construction is to start within
90 days on the lSVi-acre tract.
Some 10-12 persons would be
employed and there will be a car
capacity of 650 vehicles. The own-
er also agreed to participate in
the construction of the Crosby Rd.
extension.
The special permit zoning
would be revoked if construction
Is not started within a year, the
Council agreed.
The theater hearing was one of
four hearings set for the night.
Three Other Hearing*
After considerable discussion on
paving the alley along the north
side of Gravley Drive, the Council
agreed to participate in one-third
oif the cost for a concrete alley
from Santa Rosa west. Property
owners on both sides of the alley
would also pay one-third the cost
for concrete or about $2.20 per ft.
each. Going east of Santa Rosa
the alley would be placed under
city standards by using gravel. It
seems only the west portion has a
drainage problem and washes out
during heavy rains.
Councilmen denied a request of
Mrs. Janette Ottrnar to re-zone a
vacant lot at 1623 College Avenue
from “A” Apartment to ’“C**
Commercial. Councilmen and the
Plan group, and a number of area
residents said a change would be
termed “spot zoning.”
An application to rezone 250 by
143 feet at 1819 Denton Drive
from “R-4” Residential to “L-R”
Local Retail was withdrawn by the
three developers planning a small
community service center. The re-
quest was withdrawn after a num-
ber of people spoke up against the
zoning change.
Two Plants to Build Hero
Building permits were approved
for two industrial plants. One per-
mit was for $150,000 for a 20,250
sq. ft. masonry building for Pitta
Industries similar and next to
their present plant on S. Broad-
way. Pitts recently announced in
the Chronicle their expansion
into the South American market.
fllie other permit was for $26,-
000 for a 5,120 masonry building
for Astra Tool Co. They will build
on Lot 4 of Carrollton Industrial
Park Addition located near the
EMTEX plant.
OTHER ACTION

—Agreed to draw up a resolu-
tion instructing the city attorney
to start condemnation proceedings
against a number of property
owners on the north side of Col-
lege Ave. where right-of-way is
needed for widening the thor-
oughfare when property owners
fail to accept the city’s final ap-
praised offer;
—Councilmen were asked by
City Manager John Sarris to sub-
