system, primarily because College
Station is not large enough to have
wards. 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

have to be a property tax inert®
College Station. Idonotfavoi
raising the property taxsimpl)
means of generating additional
uue. 1 hope we can keep tawsh
as much as possible, but attima
course, we will have to increast
taxes. 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.
