sites. (Continued from September 12,2007.)
Tim W oolett, 803 East Eighth Street asked that the public hearing for the item be continued
as he had not had an opportunity to review the staff report and prepare a response. He thanked
Planning staff for their efforts and detailed analysis but noted that he would need to seek legal
counsel with regard to some of the issues noted in the staff report.
In response to Chair Beier, Planning Manager Sue Roberds stated that all staff reports were
mailed on Thursday, October 18. Mr. Woolett did not contact staff prior to the meeting to inquire
or to state that he had not received his report materials. Nothing in the staff report should have been
a surprise to the applicant as staff met with the applicant earlier in the month and the information in
the report is reflective of that meeting discussion. Pertinent City staff were present and staff is ready
to proceed with its presentation.
Principal Planner Nathan West did not understand the need to continue the already continued
meetmg and noted that staff will not be amending its recommendation at this time. Staff is aware
