The motion to approve the disbursements carried unanimously. OPEN MIKE Mr. Karth spoke to the Council on the matter of the settlement of the dispute with Mrs. Reinhold. The Judge had handed down a decision on this matter. Mr. Rehbein will purchase the home and property and allow the Reinhold family nine months to locate another home. There is to also be some assurance from the City that Mr. Rehbein may continue to use the dwelling in its present location. Mrs. Elsenpeter asked, What use? Mr. Karth said the building would be leased but he was not sure whether it would be for residential purposes or business purposes. He also stated that it was understood that if the building is used for any purpose other than residential, the matter would have to go before the Planning and Zoning and the Council for their approval. Mr. Hawkins noted that this is a pre - existing non - conforming use and that use may continue regardless of the ownership or if it is leased or owner occupied. Any other use and this would need City approval. Mr. Karth said there were no problems with those requirements, Mr. Rehbein just doesn't want to have to move the structure. There was some discussion of this going through Planning and Zoning, but Mr. Karth noted they only have until April 19, 1982 to get this agreement signed. There isn't enough time per the Judge's decision. Mr. Hawkins noted that from a legal standpoint, Mr. Rehbein has the right to continue the use of the building as residential where it is located. If the use changes, then that would be a different set of rules. Mr: Marier iridicatd that since the present use is residential - non - conforming, may continue but any change requires Planning and Zoning and Council approval.
