mINUT~s CITY COUNCIL Fh,BRUARY l3, 2002 will contact the City's legislators to inform them of the City's opposition to these cuts, including the TIF Grant program. B-W Scalze pointed out the fact that the City has a development moratorium on the MORATORIUM B-W Zoning Districts. She questioned why there is a proposal on the Planning Commission agenda for the Knox site when the moratorium was still in place. "fhe City Administrator indicated that this proposal was placed on the agenda given that the applicant is contending there are poor soils on this property and, therefore, the elimination of the outdoor storage use from the B-W District would severely impact the usability of the Knox site. It was to be included as part of the discussion of the revised zoning criteria for this area. Scalze felt it was inappropriate to consider any development proposal within a 13-W Disu~ict while the moratorium is in place. Council discussed this issue and agreed that the proposal for the Knox site was out of order at this point in the process. The City Administrator indicated that he would contact that applicant, explain the situation and have the matter removed from the Planning Commission agenda.
