Mr. Nalle appeared and stated that this property had been in his family since 1888 and it was his intention to build a nice apartment hotel on the north side of the block, something that he would be proud of and that the citizens of Austin would be proud of, and that he wanted to have stores on the first floor of this building and to open them on the street instead of in the lobby of the apartment as would be required by the regulations of "B" Residence. He also wanted to save some beautiful, old oak trees that were between his home on the southwest corner of the block and the patio he planned to have for the apartment. He assured the Council that he would not want to build anything that would be a detriment to the neighborhood but would be an asset. Judge Dave Pickle, representing six of the adjacent property owners, presented a petition protesting this change for the reason that they thought this should remain a residential section and not have stores allowed in it.

Mr. Cole appeared and stated that the property would be used for a modern plant in which would be made various household necessities and conveniences, such as clothes closets, out of a material called "Fabricon". He also stated that they had selected that site because they believed that the industrial section of Austin would soon be located there, and that their plant would be clean and attractive and an asset to the city. Mr. Emmett Quisenberry was the only protestant. He stated that he had bought his property located on the north side of 5th street, across from where a part of the proposed plant is to be built, believing that he would have a nice quiet home where he could grow bulbs and spend the rest of his life there, but if this plant was allowed to be built he believes that it would ruin the property as a home and he would want to lease it for a stockyard, if that was possible. After a lengthy discussion, the Council found that Mr. Quisenberry's house is not immediately across from the proposed plant but east of it and also that the most of his property is outside of the city limits.
