<br />e Ms. Bascom said this issue is critical to many university students and she <br /> has had calls from students asking that the election be held in November so <br /> students will be in town for the election. Ms. Bascom said the research park <br /> is an effort to use a special resource wisely and sensitively, and she hoped <br /> this would be made clear in the process of educating voters. <br /> Mr. Bennett felt the election should be held in September. He said critical <br /> negotiations are ongoing and felt momentum would be lost if the election is <br /> held later. He added that this is an important issue and felt it merits a <br /> special election. <br /> Mr. Rutan moved, seconded by Mr. Miller, to set the date of <br /> the special election for September 20, 1988. <br /> Mayor Obie said he supported the motion because the issue needs to be put to <br /> rest in the community and because it would separate the item from the other <br /> important issues that will be on the November ballot. <br /> Ms. Schue felt the issue should be on the ballot in November. She said to <br /> prepare for a September election, campaigning would have to occur in August. <br /> She added that the council would be subject to accusations of trying to <br /> railroad the issue and complaints that many people were out of town if they <br /> called a special election. <br /> Mr. Holmer said there is a petition circulating that calls for an election on <br />e urban renewal tax increment financing. He said this would put the research <br /> park on the ballot in November in a different form and that he would rather <br /> face both issues simultaneously. <br /> The motion failed, 3:4, with Mr. Rutan, Mr. Bennett, and Mr. <br /> Miller voting in favor. <br /> The final two agenda items were forwarded to the next agenda. <br /> At 1:35 P.OI., the meeting was adjourned to July 20, 1988. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> ~~<'L <br /> . ~( r-... ~r'1 <br /> .... - .
