PUBLIC HEARINGS.
MAYOR DEFELICE DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN TO
CONSIDER THE BOYDEN, ROBINETT AND ASSOCIATES APPEAL OF
PLANNING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION (MF #91-27-Z).
Mr McDonald addressed Council to report for the record that staff did
cause a notice to be published in the paper notifying the public of the
hearing
As indicated in the staff report this request is an appeal from a
Planrung Commission decision as a result of action by the Commission
in December, 1991 Since the time when the applicant filed his
appeal with staff, staff has met with the applicant and he desires to
amend his application to request R-1 zoning for the property instead
of R-3 Because this request significantly changes the original
proposal it's staffs recommendation that this matter should be sent
back to the Planning Commission for review The applicant is
agreeing with this process.
Mr Wally Hickerson, 1313 West Clark Street, addressed Council to
request that Council to request speedy action on this issue as his
client's option on the property is running out
Following three (3) calls from Mayor DeFelice for further comments
from the floor, either for or against, the public hearing was declared
closed
MOTION* Mr Garrison moved to remand the matter to the Planning
Commission for fui ther study and recommendation Mr Jensen
seconded the motion Motion earned
MAYOR DEFELICE DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN TO
CONSIDER THE DEVERS APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION'S
RECOMMENDATION (MF #91-33-Z)
Mr. McDonald addressed Council to report for the record that staff did
cause a notice to be published in the paper notifying the public of the
hearing Also, for the record as indicated in the Agenda Report, this
matter was previously held before the Planning Commission in
December, 1991, to develop a recommendation on whether or not the
property in question should be rezoned to RMH-3, which would allow
camp trailers, RV's, and trailers within an existing mobile home park
The Planning Commission reviewed the request and recommended
that this particular rezone be denied The applicant disagreed with
this decision and filed a written appeal
The information presented to the Planning Commission is attached to
the Agenda Report along with the minutes of the Planning
Commission
Mr Keister, 2119 Rd 52, addressed Counkil on behalf of Mr Devers to
explain to Council that the mobile home park in question has been
condemned, however, Mr Devers has made repairs in an attempt to
bring the property up to city code
Mr Devers wants mobile homes that are 35' or less to be allowed in
the park that have their own facilities and are self-contained, thus his
request for a zone change
Mr. Wayne Sherman, 725 East Valley Dnve, addressed Council stating
that he owns a mobile home in the mobile home park as well as his
son Mr Sherman wants to have his foster son live in a mobile home

so he could be close to where he works; however, he will be unable to
do this without the zone change.
Mr McDonald informed Council that in 1988 there was one camp
trailer m the park and the manager was informed at that time that the
park was not set up for RV units and would have to be removed In
August, 1991, there were six (6) RV units that had been moved in
The manager was aware that the park was not set up for RV's At this
point the owner and the manager applied for a rezone
Mr McDonald feels that zoning violations should not be corrected by
rezoning the property All RV units have been removed since August,
1991
RMH-3 requires that the park be developed with shower and
bathroom facilities that would provide support to RV units, the owner
doesn't want to comply with those requirements, he only wants the
ability to rent spaces for RV units
Following three (3) calls from Mayor DeFelice for further comments
from the floor, either for or against, the public hearing was declared
closed
MOTION • Mr Jensen moved to accept the recommendation of the
Planning Commission to deny the Devers rezone Mr Garrison
seconded the motion.
Mr. Strode addressed Council on his opposition on rezoning this
property, because it's obvious from the Comprehensive Plan and the
surrounding uses that a rezone would not be appropriate, however, he
would like to have additional information be made available and be
remanded to the Planning Commission if there is some precedence
for this type of use and perhaps a Applicant Specific Vanance could be
applied
Mr. Crutchfield addressed Council and stated that staff could clangy
and document the non-conforming status of the property and inform
the property owner as to those specific rights he is entitled to Also
perhaps there should be some amortization period established for the
property owner to realize the investment in their facilities since 1976,
and that perhaps Council should pass an ordinance stating that at
some point in time that all mobile home parks shall comply with all
standards.
Motion earned (voice vote of six (6)

Resolution No. 1991
A RESOLUTION MODIFYING THE AREA AUTHORIZED FOR THE
EXTENSION OF THE COLUMBIA EAST SANITARY SEWER, AND
RESCINDING PRIOR RESOLUTION NO 1929
Mr Ajax addressed Council stating that at the last workshop meeting
Mr Kidwell, owner of the property, expreGsed his desire to have the
capability of sewer to the Burger King site. The proposed resolution
(unclear) the approximate four (4) acres recommended for sewer
service.
Mr Tom Kidwell, 2500 West Court Street, addressed Council and
questioned the rescinding of the full agreement on sewer to the North
because he onginally asked for eighteen (18) acres and he would
rather have the onginal agreement modified so that at a later date he
would come back and ask for the other area.
Mr Ajax stated that approximately three (3) years ago Mr Kidwell
approached Council to ask that the eighteen (18) acres be allowed to
connect to the Columbia East Sewer This sewer line was put in to
specifically serve the Columbia East area only. The property in
question was excluded from the assessment. Two (2) years ago, when
the LID was over, Council agreed that Mr Kidwell could serve his
entire eighteen (18) acres and a fee was applied on the basis of what
other property owners paid for the LID, however, Mr Kidwell hasn't
paid for this and the fee is no longer valid and Mr Ajax feels it would
not be desirable to have the previous resolution in effect because it
sets forth an mcorrect fee.
Mr. Jensen noted that passage of Resolution 1991 will not preclude
the (unclear) from considering other requests in the future
Mr Strode questioned the amount per square foot as set forth in the
resolution and was told that it should be $0 031
MOTION Mr Jensen moved to approve Resolution No 1991, which
modifies the service area of the Columbia East Sanitary Sewer System
as amended Mr St.-ode seconded the motion Motion carried
