<br /> \~ ~ B. Rezoning to R-2 PD property north of Kins Row south of I-105 and east of Centenni~i""
<br /> ,Boulevard, Earl Green (2 73-37) - Copies of letter from Richard Miller, attorney for
<br /> Earl Green, and petition from Mr. Green requesting Council action on the rezoning re-
<br /> Iquest were previously distributed to council members. Included with the distribution
<br /> jwas copy of Judge Spencer's opinion, remanding the issue back to the Council for action
<br /> ,because of procedural errors in the Council's previous action on the rezoning. Also
<br /> Idistributed previously were copies of city attorney's advice that appeal of the trial
<br /> icourt's decision had been started,' therefore it would not seem appropriate for the
<br /> ICouncil to act upon Mr. Green's petition for action upon the rezoning. Assistant
<br /> IManager said staff would recommend following city attorney's advice in further defense
<br /> ['of existing policy and because it was felt the Judge's opinion had very broad implica-
<br /> !tions for municipalities in consideration of future zoning issues.
<br /> Bob Moulton, representing Earl Green in the absence of Mr. Miller, said that if Council
<br /> jmembers Williams, Murray, Wood, Beal, and Keller would not be present at the November 25
<br /> '[council meeting, his client would be willing to hold the matter over to the next session.
<br /> \He said it was important that the issue be heard by at least those five people, acting
<br /> ,in a judicial capacity. They were the five the Judge indicated would be eligible to
<br /> - ,Imake a decipion. Mr. Moulton said filing of an appeal of the court's action would not
<br /> ikeep the Council from acting. He added that action was taken over a year ago to re-
<br /> Izone the property and the Judge had given the opinion that the petitioners had the I
<br /> fright to have the request heard by the court (council) and the court (council) had I
<br /> ]the right to hear the testimony - those hearing all of the testimony in a judicidal I
<br /> I
<br /> !capacity should make the decision. Mr. Moulton continued that aside from the pro-
