The following guests were present:Steve Pierce,Don Bailey,Jack Wearmouth and Brian Redshaw,Dob Douglas,Cynthia Bik,Doug Saltsgauer, Terry Stark,Mike Downey,Shari Cannon-Mackey and Ron Rooney. The first item of business concerned the site plan for Downey Printing. Pierce presented concerns from V&K Eng.in regard to the site plan review.Most concerns were minor.Parking size of 8.5'X 17'was discussed.This is the minimum size for auto parking.Because this is employee parking rather than for general public it would probably not need to comply with city code for commercial sites.Stalls could be increased to 9'which would reduce number of stalls from 98 to approximately 92.With a maximum of 60 workers per shift this should meet requirements. Heskitt moved to accept preliminary site plan subject to handicap parking requirements,minor concern items and retention pond size. Royer provided the second &the motion carried.

Council Rep.Bailey reported that the council could not act without P&Z recommendation and that the Council still backs the greenbelt plan ! JDouglas,representing Bik,of the Davis-Hickenburg Law Firm related that most cities ask developers to donate a portion of a development for public use and that this could be done when this area is redeveloped.
