PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES April 11, 1979 Commissioner Wilson spoke to R-1-6500, ROD, and one-half of the improvements on Valley Avenue. Commissioner Jamieson asked that if this property were left alone, could MacKay make a go of it. Mr. Fairfield responded that it is questionable. Commissioner Wilson stated that this property is very difficult to develop. It was stated that if this property could be added to that property previously changed, it would give the developers something better with which to work. Mr. Fairfield stated there is no relationship between the two owners of the properties; Ponderosa and Mackay. Commissioner Wilson stated he hasn't seen anything anywhere to indicate the R.Q.D. is not in effect and would like clarification on this issue. A motion was made by Commissioner Wilson, seconded by Commissioner Getty that the negative declaration be filed for GP-79-4 as this proposal would have no significant adverse impacts on the environment. Resolution No. 1735 was then entered and adopted approving the filing of the negative declaration.

Commissioner Getty explained her concerns with some of the changes made by the City Council to the Planning Commission recommendation as stated on the staff report to the Planning Commission dated April 5, 1979. Mayor Brandes spoke to her concerns in the C-N District and that some of the changes were made to allow flexability because there are a limited number of categories you have to fit into. He explained the logic behind this. Commissioner Wilson stated he agreed with Joyce Getty regarding Cardrooms and Pool Halls, Radio & Television Broadcasting Studios, but that he couldn't see anything wrong with Watch & Clock Repair Shops, Swimming Pool Supplies or Optical and Optometrical Shops, With regard to the latter it was stated that this category would now come under Business, Professional and Administrative Offices. Commissioner Getty stated she would like to see the Card Rooms and Pool Halls eliminated entirely. The Commission then voted on the commercial areas where Commission Getty had concerns. -10- Doherty, Geppert, Getty, Wilson and
