Council approves purchase
CS to buy 50 ornaments
from Texas A&M Physical Plant
director Joe Estill for University
use of the College Station land
fill.
In a memo to the council, Bar
dell explained that the Universi
ty is looking for a site to dispose
of solid waste and would rather
use the College Station site than
look for another landfill area.
The council passed a motion
authorizing the city staff to pre
pare a contract and Mayor Gary
Halter encouraged the staff to
include a provision in the con
tract forbidding the disposal of
hazardous wastes in the landfill.
The contract will have to be
approved by the council before
being submitted to the Universi
ty for approval.
In other action the council:
•discussed three possible con
figurations for a proposed over
pass at Southwest Parkway and
the East Bypass;
•approved the purchase of
office furniture and equipment
for the Parks and Recreation
Department;
•approved the purchases of a
wheel loader and a tapping
machine for sewer lines;
•approved a contingency
fund transfer that will be used to
purchase a recording system
which will record all telephone
and radio communications for
the police department;
•passed an ordinance that will
determine the rate charged by
Lone Star Gas Company for
natural gas for residential and
commercial customers.
The council also approved
the two rezonings, including a
32-acre tract of land on the
south side of West Luther in the
proposed Woodway West subdi
vision. Presently zoned as
medium-density residential, the
tract has been rezoned to a mul
ti-family area which would in
crease the number of dwelling
units that could be built there.
Four tracts located within the
proposed Glenn Haven Estates
Subdivision between University
Drive, the East Bypass and
Dominik Street, also were re
zoned. Tract One was changed
from single family to town-
house-rowhouse; Tract Two
from low-density apartments to
administrative-professional;
Tract Three from low-density
apartments to townhouse-
rowhouse and Tract Four from
general commercial to town-
house-rowhouse.
