He also reported that the Planning Commission had discussed off - street parking of commercial vehicles and that while he had driven around the City prior to the Planning Commission meeting and looked at the vehicles, the other members of the Commission had not. So they are going to view the vehicles and will come to the next Planning Commission meeting ready to discuss and make a recommendation on this subject. Lee Watkins, 2609 Louise, asked what type of trucks Councilmember Baumgartner was referring to. Councilmember Baumgartner replied that they would be evaluating every type of truck. It is mainly the large semi' s that everyone is concerned with but that the Commission will attempt to define where the line should be drawn. Councilmember Ziebarth asked if there had been any changes made to the Northcrest Park concept plan since the Council had last seen it. Councilmember Baumgartner replied that the only change that had been made was that Raymond had been moved slightly to correspond to the proposed new Highway 10 crossing. Other than that, there were no changes. COUNCILMEMBER HODGES' REPORT Councilmember Hodges stated that there would be a Youth Service Bureau meeting on Thursday, July 28, at 7:00 PM. He also asked Eng. Hubbard if there were plans for doing repairs on the City streets, such as filling in chuck holes. Eng. Hubbard replied that the City crews were in the process of doing that now, that they had concentrated in the northeast corner of the City where the seal coating was going to be done but are now moving into other areas. MAYOR PICKAR'S REPORT Mayor Pickar directed Admin. Achen to study how much money is actually being spent on payroll deductions, with the idea that the City either charges a fee for collecting the deductions or eliminates them altogether, with the issue to be discussed at the next agenda session. Mayor Pickar again asked if there were any citizen comments. Darven Unruh, 5177 Longview Drive, identified himself as a neighbor of Ernest Freyberger and asked what constitutes a garage within the City. Mayor Pickar replied that to his knowledge, an exchange of money must take place. Admin. Achen added that the City ordinance prohibits the repair of vehicles at a home.
