~"~ These lots are located on the southwest corner of University Boulevard and Kirby.
Drive, fronting on University Boulevard.
The Chairman advised Mr. Ainsworth that these lots are now zoned for single-
family dwellings, and have been included in the current study the Commission is
preparing and that it is his personal feeling that inasmuch as they are the
"front doorTM to West L°niversity Place they should be kept residenti~a in character.
Also, to take only a few lots and change the zoning to something other than the
adjacent lots would constitute "spot" zoning, which is very poor planning. All
members of the Commission concurred with Mr. Hines' statements.
