City Council Minutes May 10, 1995 Page 2 • POLICY AGENDA CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION 95-13, ADOPTING ASSESSMENT ROLL FOR THE 1995 ALLEY RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT Administrator Hoyt noted that affected property owners had received notices of their final assessment amounts due and that two responses had been received. The first was by new owners Steven and Amy Burd, 1491 W. California Avenue; who had not been informed of the pending assessment by their title company and are working with them on this issue. The second response was from Harold Arneman, 1403 W. California, who submitted a formal protest to his assessment amount, claiming that he should not be assessed the full amount on his corner lot due to a past higher assessment. Mayor Baldwin noted that the corner lot issue had been discussed at a previous council meeting and the council had determined that it would be inappropriate to adjust the assessment amounts on corner lots. Motion was made by Councilmember Gibson Talbot to adopt Resolution 95-13 as presented, with no adjustments to any property's assessment amounts. Motion passed unanimously. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION 95-14, AWARDING A BID FOR THE 1995 ALLEY • RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT TO F.M. FRATTALONE The lowest bidder for the 1995 alley reconstruction was F.M. Frattalone, at S 1 1 1,306.55. City Engineer Maurer recommended accepting that bid. Councilmember Jacobs moved adoption of Resolution 95-14, awarding a bid in the amount of S 1 1 1,306.55 to F.M. Frattalone for the 1995 alley reconstruction project. Motion passed unanimously. PROPOSED REVISIONS TO THE ZONING CODE REGARDING GUN SHOPS AS A CONDITIONAL USE IN A B - 3 ZONE (ORDINANCE 95-01 AND RESOLUTIONS 95-12 AND 95-15) Administrator Hoyt explained that over the past two years the planning commission and city council had reviewed the business uses in the business district to make sure that they are compatible with each other and with the neighboring residential areas. Stores that sell firearms are the remaining use to be addressed. Firearms are a unique use in that the state preempts the city from any control over firearms with the exception of permitting zoning for firearms. This exception was created by the legislature in 1993. The planning commission recommended allowing gun shops as a conditional use in a B - 3 zone. Motion was made by Councilmember Hustad to approve Ordinance 95-01, Resolution 95- 12 (summary publication) and Resolution 95-15 (findings of fact). Motion passed • unanimously.
