Cone with the following Council members present: Mr. Anderson, Mrs.Lauris, <br />Dr. Purdy, Mr. Lassen, Mrs. Hayward, Mr. McDonald, and Mr. Wingard. Mr.McNutt was absent. <br /> <br />Minutes of Council meetings held January 22 and February 5, 1968 and of zoning ordinance hearing held <br />January 29, 1968, as mailed to Council members, were approved. <br /> <br />NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br />Councilwoman Hayward referred to the zoning ordinance hearing minutes of January 29,1968 <br />wherein a question was raised with regard to exclusion of restaurants which sell alcoholic <br />beverages from the conditional uses permitted in R-P Residential-Professional districts <br />and whether this was a proper area of concern for zoning. She asked in light of the City <br />Attorney's remarks as shown in the minutes whether the City has a policy with regard to <br />sale of alcoholic beverages in residential neighborhoods. The City Attorney said his re- <br />marks as shown in the minutes were taken out of context, and said there is no policy <br />against sale of liquors in any area under the present zoning ordinance except in school <br />areas. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />Councilman Lassen asked whether it will be the responsibility of the City or the County <br />for lighting the intersections of West Belt Line Road, especially the intersection at <br />11th Avenue. The City Manager said lighting the 11th and Belt Line intersection will be <br />the City's responsibility, but that all street lighting funds inthe current: budget have <br />been used. He said it would be investigated to see if something can be arranged. <br /> <br />3 <br /> <br />Councilwoman Hayward said she received a number of calls concerning recent publicity with <br />regard to the Regional Air Pollution Authority. She said the callers were concerned that <br />it appeared the Authority may be heading toward lowering standards if burning permits <br />were issued by fire departments when it was felt the Air Quality Control Officer is quali- <br />fied and trained to know conditions under which permits could be issued. Other specific <br />items she mentioned were that Cottage Grove should be welcomed as a member of the Authority, <br />and that the Air Pollution Control Officer should be able to issue citations to people <br />whose cars discharge heavy smoke. <br /> <br />Councilman Lassen, member of the Authority, said the last two meetings of the Authority <br />were informal work sessions in which the members were trying to set up a program and <br />methods of implementing it. He said with regard to issuing citations for automobiles <br />emitting smoke, the Authority's concern was centered on the staff's issuing citations <br />in civilian clothes and using unmarked cars. The Authority questioned whether burning <br />permits could be issued by various fire departments and whether for commercial or other <br />type of burning, but there will be clarification on this at a later date. Mr. Lassen <br />said with respect to including Cottage Grove as amember of the Authority that it is felt <br />there will be inquiries from other cities in the area asking to be included. However, the <br />Authority is at a disadvantage with regard to including them this year because of the time <br />element of budget requirements. He said it will be considered as soon as possible. <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />Proclamation, Canvass Votes February 20, 1968 City Election was submitted and read in full. <br /> <br />Mr. Anderson moved seconded by Mr. Lassen to accept the proclamation. Motion carried. <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />Laurelwood Bonds - Councilman Purdy suggested that the Laurelwood measure be resubmitted <br />to the voters at the May 28 primary election, excluding the $144,000 for improvements, <br />making a bond measure for the purchase price only, $371,000. The City Manager said other <br />alternatives should be scheduled for discussion by the Council, and that there are possibly <br />two more Council meetings - or a special meeting could be called - at which a measure could <br />be put on the ballot. He said other financial problems will be discussed, so there may be <br />other decisions. <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br />Bids, Property at 1290 West 28th Avenue <br /> <br />E. J. Burns <br />F. S.
