Application was made to rezone 7,000 square feet
located on the northwest corner of 15th and "C".
Planning Department memo and a petition opposing
opened the public hearing.
from CSD-C1 to CSD-C2
Mayor Duncan reviewed. a
the rezone. She then
Brando Blore, brother of the applicant, informed the Council that the pur-
pose of the application for rezone was to establish a tavern at the corner
of 15th and "C". Mrs. Norman Stovall, Wil Muller, Sue Linch, E. Gentry,
Ron Lidster, Warren Miller and Norman Stovall spoke in opposition of the
rezone, with Bill Nugent favoring the rezone. Tom Blore, applicant for the
rezone, addressed the Council on his request. Mr _ Blore presented a
petition to the Council favoring the establishment of the tavern. Manager
Flodstrom presented a letter from Jack Estes, 1019 West 15th, to Mayor
Duncan which she then read into the record. Mr. Estes also opposed the
establishment of the proposed tavern. Mayor Duncan closed the public
hearing.
In the appearance of fairness, Councilmen Gerberding and Quast stepped
down, abstaining from voting. After further discussion with staff, Council-
man Hordyk moved to concur with the Planning Commission's recommendation to
deny the application for rezone, citing the following findings of fact:
(1) the rezone will not increase the compatability of potential commercial
uses with adjacent residential uses and may cause the intermingling of
incompatible land uses, contrary to Land Use Objective No.2; (2) a commer-
cial cluster configuration cannot be achieved in accordance with Commercial
Policies Nos. 2 and 13; (3) the additional uses permitted by the rezone may
have greater adverse land use impacts on nearby residential development and
other Cl permitted commercial uses because the one lot may not be readily
buffered in accordance with Commercial Policy No.3. Councilman Whidden
seconded. On call for the question, Councilmen Polhamus, Hordyk and
Whidden voted "Aye". Councilman Haguewood abstained. Mayor Duncan cast a
vote in favor of the denial. The motion to deny the rezone carried.

and the benefits of having licensed paramedics in the City. Mayor Duncan
closed the public hearing.
Councilman Hordyk questioned Chief Glenn regarding the cost of implementing
the program. Chief Glenn explained that the 1984 budget for the Medic I
Program is $136,603. After further discussion, Councilman Quast moved to
begin a Medic I Program between January 1 and February 1, 1984; the City
commence collecting the additional $1.30 per month Medic I utility fee
effective December 1, 1983; authorize the City Manager and Fire Chief to
begin negotiations for the purchase of a Medic I unit. Councilman Whidden
seconded. After further discussion, on call for the question, the motion
