2. PUBLIC HEARING - REZONE REQUEST - FISHER CONSTRUCTION
Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood read a synopsis of the public hearing held by the
Planning Commission on Fisher Construction's rezone request and the Plann-
ing Commission's recommendation concerning this matter. Mayor Pro Tern I
Haguewood then declared the Public Hearing open and requested all persons
desiring to express their opinion on the Rezone to speak at this time.
There were no comments from the floor. Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood again asked
for comments from the audience. As there was no response from those in
attendance the Public Hearing was declared closed. Councilman Hordyk moved
the Council adopt the Planning Commission's reasons and deny the rezone
because it is spot zoning, does not follow the Comprehensive Plan, can have
detrimental effect on the neighborhood and does not have merit for the entire
community. The motion was seconded by Councilman Anderson and carried.
3. PUBLIC HEARING - STREET VACATION REQUEST - F. HANSEN
Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood read the reports from the Planning Staff and the
portion of the Planning Commission's minutes of March 14, 1977 relating to
F. Hansen's petition for the vacation of Center Street between Campbell and
Craig Avenues. Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood then declared the Public Hearing
open and asked for comments from the audience. A general discussion followed
with several area residents speaking in opposition to the proposed vacation
of this portion of Center Street. Mr. Hansen was in attendance and spoke
in support of his request. During the discussion Public Works Director
Flodstrom indicated there has been a request to have the Public Works
Department set property corners on Campbell Avenue and on the alley which
would help resolve property line problems existing in this area. After
listening to all the testimony of the opponents and proponent of the request,
Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood declared the Public Hearing closed. It is noted ..1
for the record that six written protests have been filed on subject petition.
Councilman Hordyk made a motion to concur with the decision of the Planning
Commission and deny the Center Street vacation request for the reason that
the vacation of this portion of Center Street would result in difficulties
to the Fire Department and Public Works Department in providing services
to the area. Councilman Anderson seconded the motion and the motion was
passed by the Council. The request of Forrest Hansen for the vacation of
a portion of Center Street was denied.
4. PUBLIC HEARING - MORATORIUM ON NEW SIGN INSTALLATION
Mayor Pro Tem Haguewood read City Manager Whorton's analysis of the Chamber
of Commerce's request that the City Council place a moratorium on all new
sign installation and construction until such time as the Planning Commission
revise the City's sign ordinance which. is planned for later in the year.
After exploring the feasibility of a sign moratorium, it is Manager Whorton's
recommendation to the Councilthat.in lieu of .asign moratorium each applicant
for a sign permit be given written notice of the impending new ordinance
thereby encouraging applicants to wait for a new sign ordinance or to utilize
temporary signs until the new ordinance is adopted. Manager Whorton informed
the Council of the difficulties associated with a moratorium on new signs,
namely, implementation, enforcement, legality, and the effect upon the zoning
code.
After reading Manager Whorton's report, Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood opened the I
public hearing and asked for comments from the audience. Mr. Clarence
Fidler spoke in support of the sign moratorium, stating he feels a sign
moratorium could be easily implemented and enforced until a new sign
ordinance was adopted. He encouraged the Council to initiate a moratorium
on all new sign installations and construction by prohibiting bill boards,
off premise signs, on premise signs exceeding $500 value, all signs over
the public right of way (sidewalkS) and rooftop signs until the current
sign ordinance is revised.
Mayor Pro Tern Haguewood asked for any further comments from the floor. As
there was no further response from the audience, the public hearing was
closed.

related costs associated with a special election, the legal requirements
for holding a special election, and possible Federal matching funds on the
proposed bond issue, Councilman Ross made a motion to hold a special election
on May 17, 1977 to propose a general obligation bond in the sum of 2 Million
Dollars ($2,000,000) to provide funds to develop a municipal pier. This
motion died for lack of a second. Councilman Hordyk then moved to adopt the
Ordinances as written for a general obligation bond to be put on the November
8, 1977 general election ballot for a municipal pier at 2 Million Dollars
($2,000,000) and the renovation of Civic Field at Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000). Councilman Hordyk's motion died for lack of a second.
The discussion continued with Manager Whorton proposing to develop a slide
show and a citizens committee to promote the proposed bond issues 30 days
before the election. Councilman Wray expressed the opinion that only one
proposition should be placed on the ballot. Councilman Anderson then made
a motion to put both the general Obligation bond for a municipal pier at 2
Million Dollars ($2,000,000) and the renovation of Civic Field at Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) on a special election ballot on May 17,
1977 at an interest rate not to exceed 8%. This motion was seconded by
Councilman Ross. On call for the question, the motion carried with Council-
man wray voting "NO".
