Motion Comm 10/20/76 carried, all council members present voting aye except Mr. See action Haws abstaining. below III-B-3 Manager explained that the Room Tax Committee recommendation to allocate ~,OOO was not in line with staff evaluation of the application. Staff recommendation for denial was based on legal grounds that the activity for which the funds were proposed does not involve services, rather they are to be used for planning and feasibility studies. He suggested placing the item on the October 27 committee agenda for fur- ther discussion with notification to applicants of such action. Mr. Keller moved second by Mr. Haws to refer the Theatre Project application back to the October 27, 1976 committee-of-the-whole meeting for further discussion. Councilman Murray questioned the reason for taking the application back to committee. He reierred to funds allocated to the Auditorium Association which were used for planning and feasibility studies. Stan Long, assistant city attorney, said there was some real question about whether the applicant had proposed something specific which under contract could be purchased that would be of public benefit. In staff's judgment, he said, the application did not fit those guidelines. Manager added that through discussion at the October 27 committee meeting, other answers could e be given and a decision made then. Vote was taken on the motion as stated.
