She <br />gave credit to those who spoke this evening for the minority point <br />of view. She agreed that the wall should not be removed. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver believed that the wall should remain in place.

He said that those who spoke for the <br />minority point of view made some good points and should not be <br />overlooked. However, he believed that more damage would be done if <br />the wall was removed therefore, did not support the request to <br />remove the wall. <br /> <br /> An unidentified speaker asked Council what would it take to <br />this a permanent wall for the safety of the neighborhood. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver agreed that this wall should be rodesigned for <br />safety. He was not sure what mechanism could be practiced to <br />legally stop this matter from being reconsidered at a later date. <br /> <br /> Mayor Mercer reiterated the Council's policy in considering <br />and reconsidering items such as this matter. He did not believe <br />that a Councilmember should be denied the choice to reconsider any <br />item at any time.
