Items From Mayor and Council <br /> <br />A. Agreement between ESP and City re: Building in Westmoreland Park-- <br />Mr. Lieuallen requested Council reconsideration of the issue, as <br />he had heard zoning was inappropriate and the site was not intended <br />for that use. He requested information as to the proposed facilities) <br />their appearance, and how soon construction would begin. <br /> <br />B. Budget Committee Meeting--Ms. Smith and Mr. Hansen are co-chairing <br />the efforts of the Budget Committee to get passage of the City budget <br />June 27. She requested all Councilors contact Budget Committee <br />members to meet Friday, June 2, noon, in the McNutt Room for <br />preparati ons. <br /> <br />C. Systems Development Tax--Mr. Obie requested Council's support in <br />asking JHC to explore suggestions for alternate applications of <br />the tax. Mr. Delay felt it might be an appropriate vehicle, but <br />noted the JHC had taken a stand against the tax. He doubted also <br />there could be anything done to avoid the front-end charge. Mr. Obie <br />said he had the other areas of concern regarding the tax in mind for <br />review, that if possibilities for avoiding that charge could be found <br />it would be helpful. He felt City Council simply did not have the <br />time to explore the possibilities. Mr. Obie is Council's presen- <br />tative on the committee. <br /> <br />Mr. Williams felt it fine for JHC to review possibilities, noting <br />Council could do what it wishes with the materials presented <br />from JHC. <br /> <br />Mr. Williams moved, seconded by Mr. Obie, to request JHC to <br />look at possible alternate applications in the systems develop- <br />ment tax. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />5/24/78--1 <br /> <br />3r'f <br />
