TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1998 Co Set a public hearing on a request from Elbert E. and Christine J. Stone to rezone property located at 801 Starling Avenue, from R-6 Residential to P-2 Professional. Set a public hearing to amend the City's Proposed Land Use Map to indicate that recently rezoned property located at 1107 Chatham Road be shown as Professional rather than the present designation of High-Density Residential. Under items not on the Agenda, Mayor Crabtree stated that he had received notice that the City had received $30 in funds from the sale of special "Animal Friendly" license plates, and wanted to know the Council's pleasure in terms of giving these funds to the Local Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, as had been done the year before. Upon motion duly seconded, and by unanimous vote (5-Ayes--Crabtree, Teague, Dallas, Haskell and Roop; 0-Nayes), Council approved the granting of these funds to the SPCA. Under other items, Council Member Haskell noted the receipt of a letter from Mr. Jim Tobin, conceming a report which is recommending the closure of the Southern Virginia Mental Institute in Danville, Virginia.
