Mr. Locher had prepared an amendment to Ordiance #56 regarding control of parking trailers on private property.

Mr. Shearen moved to recommend to Council approval of this amendment to Ordinance #56. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion.. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Locher's letter of February 15, 1978 to the Planning and Zoning Board regarding Pole Buildings suggests that our present Ordinance should control their area of con- struction. He further suggests that all requests for building permits for Pole Build- ings be brought before the Council for study. The Planning and Zoning Board did not take action on this matter. Mr. Locher's letter also addressed the area of Planning and Zoning Board members using an area in their for office space. Mr. Locher feels this would not be allowed by IRS unless the Council requires that the members use such an area in their homes as an office. Mr. Reinert said the idea was to have the Council specifically say that space was not available at City Hall and each members would be required to use space in their homes as an office. This has been done in other states for other Board members. No, further action was taken on this matter. Mr. Gourley noted that Mr. Volk had presented a request for the Board to consider recomm- ending an ordinance that would require each new plat to have street lights installed by the developer. The Clerk was asked to have Mr. Volk attend the next Planning and Zoning Board meeting for further discussion on this matter. Mr. Gourley noted that the Park Board had made a recommendation to the Council regarding the dedication of park land and monies. Mr. Gourley informed the Board that Mr. Ed Karth has resigned. He asked the members to give him or Mr. McLean recommendations on another new member. Mr. Gourley said he felt it would be a good idea to have the Board Chairman and Mr. McLean meet with each prospective new member to let them know what they are dealing with.
