property located in the Morningside Estates Addition with Loop 286 frontage. The site is
3.35 acres and has remained vacant as currently zoned. The proposed Office District is
appropriate as it moves toward the future land use. Two zoning input forms were returned

change and the other was in favor.

located in the 2500 Block of S Church Street.
