1 Comm the materiaJ would be the subject of discussion at this committee meeting, and Mr. Haws thought those present under that assumption should be advised whether 7/23/75 it was in fact going to be discussed since it did not appear on the written agenda. File Mayor Anderson stated, and staff concurred, that since the item was not on the agenda it would not be discussed at this me~ting. . . . Ellis Jones, 1030 Coburg Road, asked segregation of Item FF - Plan Amendment, Good- I-A-3 pasture Island area for discussion. Assistant Manager explained action taken in com- mittee, that Mr. Cleveland had submitted a packet of m,ateria1 under the impression the item would be discussed in that meeting. He was advised it was not on the agenda and was scheduled for public hearing August 25, 1975. Mayor Anderson said any further dis- cussion at this time would be out of order, unless it was a question of procedure. Mr. Jones said it was a question of when there would be response to th~ questions raised in Mr. lC1eve1and'sletter of transmittal. One issue had been answered, t~e matter of setting over the hearing, he said. Mr. .Jones wondered when the other six items would be answered. Councilmen Bradley and Haws discussed their understanding of the issue - that the submittal was made just previous to the meeting without time for distribution to Council members. Mr. Haws said he would ~ike a chance to discuss the issues, but not until after he had reviewed them. Assistant Manager said the actions requested in Mr. Cleveland's letter were reconsideration of earlier Council action, and staff was awaiting Council direction with regard to whether further dis- cussion was wanted. . Mr. Jones said the Council at the July 14 meeting was asked to take action on seven points. They did consider one. He wondered if failure to act on the remaining six would constitute denial of those six requests. If action was going to be taken, he asked, would it be after public hearing so that the issues would become a matter of record. Mayor Anderson stated his understanding that the Council did not wish further diseus- e sion at this point, that unless a Council member specifically requested further dis- cussion, anything more at this point would be moot. ... Mr. Bradley.moved second by Mr. Hamel that discussion on the subject occur at the Wednesday, July 30, 1975 committee-of-the-whole meeting. <=- Mr. Bradley raised the question of whether time limits would be imposed. He suggested possibly confining the committee discussion to staff presentation. Assistant Manager noted that an hour limit had already been placed on the hearipg scheduled for August 25. He suggested that the committee meeting might be confined to staff review with the Council, then a determination as to ~hether testimony would be received. Councilman Murray asked whether there would be delay on the Goodpasture Island matter if any of Mr. Cleveland's suggestions were enacted. Assistant Manager said some of them would cause a delay, some would not. Whereupon Councilman Murray commented on past requests for Council action "to hurry along," yet the same people now were asking for a delay. Mayor Anderson strongly recommended that any discussion at the July 30 committee session be confined to s.taff discussion. If public testimony was desired, it could be taken in the public hearing. He felt taking testimony a~ the committee meeting would lead to further problems and confusion. Vote was taken on the motion to bring the issues raised in Mr. Cleveland's submittal for discussion in committee, July 30, and that no public testimony - be taken at that time. Motion carried unanimously. 7/28/75. '" 14 - 43~,
