character would be in violation of promises heretofore given to property owners in LaPrelle Place. It was the sense of the mosting that the City Council was under moral obligations to the property owners in question to keep any objectionable business out of LaPrelle Place; and, therefore, that the temporary variation for the sale of beer at the above location be cancelled. The temporary variations granted by said Board for the sale of wine and beer at Lake View Inn, 3801 Lake Austin Boulevard; the Bright Spot, 3707 Lake Austin Boulevard; and Bowenta Drive-In Cafe, 2910 Guadalupe Street, were next considered. It was the sense of the meeting that such temporary variatione be allowed to stand, pending final disposition of the proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance creating a "0-1" Commercial District. Upon motion, seconded and carried, the meeting was then recessed at 4:00 P. M., subject to call of the Mayor. Attests Hallic M City Clerk REGULAR MENTING OF THE CITY COUNCIL: 259 Are: Jomilla.
