Preliminary Plat: Desert Estates, (69 lot subdivision north and east of

MOTION: Ms. Francik moved to table action on the Preliminary Plat for
Desert Estates until the November 6, 2000 Council meeting. Mr. Jensen
seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
NEW BUSINESS:
Wilson Request for Reconsideration: Mr. Crutchfield gave a brief summary of
information contained in the agenda report, specifically that staff concludes
that the Wilson's request for reconsideration brings to light no information of
substance which would represent a significant change in the evidence the
Council had at its disposal in the closed record hearing on September 18;
without a substantive and significant error in the evidence or procedure, the
Council should not entertain formal reconsideration. Staff recommends that
Council decline to make a motion for reconsideration.
Mr. Jensen felt, after reading the agenda report and the Wilson letter, that
nothing of a substantive nature had been left out of the information packet
presented to Council at the closed record hearing. Therefore, Mr. Jensen felt
it would be inappropriate to reconsider the Council's previous decision.
