Mr. Ericson asked that Items D and E be considered together as they relate to the same project. He explained that the Planning Commission voted to approve the Resolution to amend the Comprehensive Plan and also to approve the rezoning of the property. The applicant has requested continuance of these items for two weeks until the next regular Council meeting. Attorney Long explained that under the State Statutes, approval of a Comprehensive Plan amendment requires a 2/3 vote of the council (in this case, four members of the council to approve). Under state statutes regarding zoning amendments, approval requires a 4/5 vote (all four council members present). MOTION by Mayor McCarty to deny the request for a continuance.

MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Stigney to grant the request for a continuance of Items 5 (D) and (E). Attorney Long noted if the continuance is granted and the Public Hearing is continued, a date must be specified in the motion so that the public is made aware. This will also alleviate the necessity to re- publicize the public hearing notice.
