495 Item 13b Request to Use Vacant City Lot to Sell Christmas Trees Mr. Roush presented his report (SR 89:476) regarding the matter. Mr. Butler inquired if this would fall under the category that would require a conditional use permit. Mr. Roush replied that the applicant would have to go through a Planning Department permit procedure. Other than that, it would be consistent with the Code. Mr. Mercer indicated that he was not in favor of renting out City property for a commercial enterprise to sell Christmas trees and would not support the request. Mr. Butler concurred with Mr. Mercer. It was moved by Mr. Mercer, and seconded by Mr. Brandes, that Resolution No. 89-492 be adopted, denying the request to use a vacant city lot to sell Christmas trees. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Brandes, Butler, Mohr, Tarver and Mayor Mercer NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Item 13c fItem 4p) Health and Welfare Benefits Provided to the City Council. Mr. Roush presented his report (SR 89:488) regarding the matter. Mr. Mercer inquired if these were new benefits being offered to the Councilmembers. Mr. Roush replied that since 1985, when the Councilmembers became eligible members of the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS), they have been entitled to all the benefits outlined in the staff report, except Item A.2. - Retirement Benefits. He explained that this benefit was added to the Management Compensation Plan, approved by the Council in October 1988, to which the Councilmembers are likewise entitled. However, there is no documentation that Council is entitled to these benefits. He stated that a resolution clarifying the health and welfare benefits to which the Councilmembers are entitled is in order should questions on the matter arise in the future. Mr. Mercer asked what Councilmembers would be entitled to when they retire. -16- 11-21-89
