Wards were created by the courts in certain cities in order to insure minority representation on the council. This is certainly not the case in College Station since the only minorities we have are blacks and they are spread throughout four spe cific areas of the city and constitute less than 2 percent of the population of College Station. A black can’t say he or she deserves representation on the council because there are not enough blacks to justify that. Another problem with the ward system is that the people do not know what ward they reside in or where their voting place is. Will you encourage further build ing of apartment complexes for stu dents and how do you think this will affect the city in the next 5-10 years? We cannot discourage the build ing of apartments. Apartments are built by developers, builders and in vestors because they think they can make money out of it. The city of College Station has no control on whether people will build apart ments or not. I personally don’t think we will see as many apartments com plexes built in the future as we have seen in the past. I have asked stu dents in my classes if they feel there is a shortage of apartments and they say, “No there is not,’’ yet people are continually building apartments. Do you think College Station needs a property tax increase? Yes. The areas that the city gets its income from is too heavily Oriented towards utilities and not enough to wards property taxation. When the city sets its property tax rate, the city should consider the amount of taxes that property owners are having to pay to the school. Property is getting to the point where it is being taxed too heavily. Taxes should not get to PIGGLY WIGGLY’S NEW BINGO TYPE GAME...GET YOUR CARD AND WIN UP TO *1000°°...

College Station has ifnolt lowest, at least one of the Iowa fective tax rates of any city itss® the state of Texas. Do you see any problemswillj current zoning code? Would consider new areas for consln tion? Yes. We have some problem.; the zoning ordinance. Onetfl problems is that the nance lias been amended® times since the adoption in we have very few copies ofthesej ticular amendments in oiiedr ment. I think we need to gobaclj review the entire ordinance whole and make changeswl* needed and then print a newt nance, includingalltheamendm in the past and any ol the newt that are needed. Any ordinance! is part of the zoning ordiii should be periodically reviewd its entirety and we have not that. Would you consider conslrri of more recreational facilities! Absolutely, in fact one oftliei parts to the bond issue is tog money to buy two large park il will he predominately used foil events such as baseball basketball courts. I hope sot the city of College Station willlui large park that will be appronnH several hundred acres. Theil place for it is in the floodpla cause the recreational fad would not increase the run-off; could be covered up with without being damaged. £'1% ri //y-’L.
