MINUTES CITY COUNCIL FEBRUARY 24, 1993 market would open April 17th and would close June 2oth. The additional time period covered in the permit would allow for the opening and closing of the flower market. LaValle asked if any thought had been given to a permanent operation. Linder replied that that would be a possibility depending upon the success of the flower mart. Morelan asked if handicapped parking would be required by code. The Planner replied that the Code requirements for handicapped parking don't require that the parking is distributed in any certain way. Morelan pointed out that the flower mart is proposed as a detached facility from the shopping center, therefore, the handicapped spaces for the center are located too far away and across traffic flows to be useful for the flower mart. Morelan suggested a requirement of some handicapped parking for the flower mart. LaValle pointed out ADA requirements, and suggested that one or two handicapped parking spaces be desiqnated next to the mart. LaValle suggested the use of handicapped parking signs mounted on a pole. Linder replied that he had no difficulty designating handicapped parking, and stated that he would like to see the entire parking lot filled with customers. However, experience tells him there will be plenty of available parking. The Administrator asked if there was any concern on the part of the Council that in the future another vendor might operate the flower mart under the conditional use permit that is approved at Linder's request. Scalze suggested that the Council review any future operations. The Planner stated that it was his understanding that as long as the conditions required of Linder's are met, the operators of the flower mart can change without further review or action by the City Council. LaValle stated that he would be concerned about getting an operator of lesser quality than Linder's. Page 4
