APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of the August 10, 1977, meeting were approved as submitted. MEETING OPEN FOR ANY MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE TO ADDRESS THE PLANNING COMMISSION Mr. Percival Scales, owner of Essenar Investments, requested that the Planning Commission investigate the possibility of amending the Ordinance Code to allow waterbed stores in the C-N District. He explained that the Amador Center (zoned C-N) had allowed a waterbed store to take occupancy in the center. Mr. Scales assumed that the shopping center across the street carried the same kind of zoning as his center, and since there is a similar business in that center, he did not see anything irregular about the waterbed store located in his shopping center. He has since learned that waterbed shops are not allowed in the C-N District and requested an amendment to the Ordinance Code. After some discussion, the Commissioners adopted Resolution 1557 initi- ating an amendment to the ordinance code to allow either as a permitted or conditional use waterbed stores in the C-N District.
