          THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS IN SUPPORT. >> MAYOR NIRENBERG: WE HAVE TWO RESIDENTS SIGNED UP TO SPEAK. BRENDA PACHECKO. 
          >> HI, EVERYONE, ITS GOOD TO SEE YOU ALL TODAY. ACTUALLY I AM A D3 RESIDENT, BUT I DON'T LIVE IN THE AREA BEING REZONED, BUT MY FRIEND DOES LIVE THERE AND I'M SPEAKING ON HIS BEHALF. HE JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT YES, HE DOES APPROVE THE LARGE AREA ZONING. WE'VE HAD SEVERAL QUESTIONS IN THE WHOLE PROCESS AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THE STAFF, NAMELY ASHLEY VILLARREAL, HAD BEEN VERY COOPERATIVE AND ANSWERED ALL OUR CALLS AND QUESTIONS SO I THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, HE DOES VOTE YES. 
          THANK YOU. >> MAYOR NIRENBERG: THANK YOU. 
          LORENZO URESTI. >> GOOD AFTERNOON. I'D LIKE TO SAY WE'RE 
          [00:05:09]
AGAINST THE BUILDING OF ANY APARTMENTS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          WE DON'T HAVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR IT NOW. WE HAVE NO DRAINAGE. 
          WE HAVE CURBS AND SIDEWALKS, BUT WHERE DOES THE WATER GO? REALLY OPPOSE ANY APARTMENT BUILDING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WE ALREADY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HOMELESS. THIS WOULD JUST BE MORE PEOPLE, MORE TRAFFIC AND I THINK MONEY SHOULD BE WASTED MORE ON STREET SIGNS AND TAKING CONSIDERATION UNTIL A GIRL KILLED A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO IN OUR SAME NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          THANK YOU. >> MAYOR NIRENBERG: THANK YOU. 
          THIS ITEM IS IN DISTRICT 3. COUNCILMEMBER VIAGRAN. >> VIAGRAN: THANK YOU. 
          I WANT TO THANK THE HARLANDALE, MCCOLLUM AND SOUTHSIDE RESIDENTS FOR WORKING ON THE ITEM BEING VOTED ON TODAY. I FILED THIS CCR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO AND WANT TO THANK STAFF FOR GIVING US THE TOOLS AND RESOURCES TO GET THESE LARGE AREA REZONINGS DONE WITH COMMUNITY INPUT AND SUPPORT AND AS WE MENTIONED OR THE SPEAKERS MENTIONED ASHLEY WAS VERY HELPFUL IN THIS PROCESS. THANK YOU. AND IN OTHER TERMS, WE KNOW THAT APARTMENTS, MULTI-FAMILY IS NOT WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO SEE. 
          THEY WANT US TO BE A LOT MORE THOUGHTFUL SO I DO HAVE A LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR LARGE AREA REZONING FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. AND WITH THAT BEING SAID, I 
          WILL MAKE MOTION TO APPROVE AS AMENDED. >> SECOND. 
          >> MAYOR NIRENBERG: THERE'S A MOTION AND A SECOND FOR APPROVAL AS AMENDED. ITEM NUMBER 8. IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE, PLEASE VOTE. MOTION CARRIES. 
          ITEM 24. >> CLERK: 
          21 NOTICES MAILED, ONE IN FAVOR, ZERO OPPOSED. >> MAYOR NIRENBERG: THIS ITEM IS IN DISTRICT 8. WE APPRECIATE COUNCILMEMBER CASTILLO TAKING THE CHARGE. 
          CASTILLO I MOTION TO APPROVE WITH CONDITIONS AS READ. >> MAYOR NIRENBERG: THERE'S A MOTION AND SECOND FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM 24 WITH CONDITIONS AS STATED. 
          ANY DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE, PLEASE VOTE. MOTION CARRIES. 
          ALL RIGHT. THAT IS ALL THE ITEMS ON OUR AGENDA. 
          THE TIME IS 2:12 P.M. ON MAY 15E ADJOURNED. HAVE A GREAT AFTERNOON.
