MINUTES CITY COUNCIL AUGUST 14, 2002 Administrator also noted that this issue could be addressed at the time consideration is given to the reconstruction oFJackson Street. Fahey asked if there was anyone from the general public present wishing to comment on this matter_ David Dorn, Jackson Street resident, pointed out existing outdoor storage concerns at the Poolside site, and asked why there would be reason to believe that situation would be different. Dorn also pointed out that the Jackson Street residents would like to see the existing Fence on the west side of the property remain. Fahey pointed out that Poolside has indicated that they are agreeable to retaining the fence. Dorn pointed out that the Poolside business has been growing over the years and semi truck traffic has been increasing. Dorn requested that the Poolside sign on Little Canada Road identifying the rear entrance to the property be removed Stroman indicated that Poolside was agreeable to removing the sign. Dorn pointed out that Poolside leases space on the opposite side of Jackson Street and they run a bobcat back and forth between the two sites. Dorn reported that Poolside parks this bobcat on Jackson Street. Dorn asked if the use ofJackson Street for Poolside parking would continue. Fahey replied that Jackson Street could be posted as no parking. Dorn noted that the street has been posted as no parking, but Poolside continues to park there. Dorn was concerned that outdoor storage and parking violations would continue. Dorn also noted Rob Anderson's comments at the last meeting that Poolside could not abide by road restrictions. Fahey indicated that whatever level of road restrictions are placed on Jackson Street will have to be abided with. This will be an enforcement issue for the City, but given the City's limited stall; it will have to rely on property owners in the area to report the violations. Dorn again expressed concern about the traffic on Jackson Street, and indicated that he wanted to ensure his concerns were noted for the record. Fahey felt the concerns expressed this evening were justified, but pointed out that the City's last review of the Poolside property occurred in 1986. There have been no complaints at the Council level about the Poolside operation for the past 16 years.
