Ms. Miller stated that she would prefer that the council interfere as little as . possible with private enterprise. However, neighborhood groups are very impor- tant to the City and they must be taken seriously. On this basis, she feels this is a bad idea. She feels the recommendation should be made accordingly. Mr. Haws stated that 7-Eleven stores do not cause the problems. If there are other problems, perhaps the entire situation should be addressed. If one store is allowed in the area, others should be also. Perhaps the zoning is wrong but that should be addressed in a different manner. Fairness must be stressed. Ms. Smith asked if there is criteria that can be brought back. Mr. Henry said that he did not feel that will be the case. Mr. Obie stated that the neighbor- hood does not want this and the council IS decision should reflect their wish. Roll call vote; the motion was defeated 4:3 with councilors Haws, Smith, Hamel, and Schue voting no. Ms. Smith moved, seconded by Mr. Lieuallen, to forward to OLCC with recommendation for approval, subject to conditions, if any. Roll call vote; motion carried 4:3 with Councilors Obie, Lieuallen, and Miller voting no. Mr. Obie stated that he would like OLCC to know that a serious problem exists and that the neighborhood is against this. Mr. Hamel stated that he appreciates the neighborhood's input but feels they should pursue other avenues, such as going to OLCC and the Planning Department. IV.
