1 Councilmembers Marks and Ranallo moved that the Commission recommendation be accepted. 3 Councilmember Makowske indicated she would rather see the specific 4 number of licenses dropped and Mr. Bonaventura's Conditional Use Permit 5 amended to delete any reference to number of licenses allowed this 6 location because: 7 *the fact that only a total of 106 such licenses are allowed in the 8 City by Ordinance would in itself place a certain limitation on the 9 number of licenses which would be available to Mr. Bonaventura; 10 *the Council would avoid specifying that almost half of the licenses 11 which can be issued would go to one business. 12 Mayor Sundland agreed that no top number should be imposed on this 13 permit, perceiving that the applicant had testified that 45 was the 14 optimum number of devices his operation could use anyway. 15 Mr. Childs told Councilmember Ranallo the Ordinance restricting the 16 number of licenses in the City had been adopted after the Fun Center had 17 opened and the licenses that establishment held were not limited by a 18 Conditional Use Permit. 19 Councilmember Marks indicated he would be willing to amend his motion 20 in accordance with Councilmember Makowske's recommendation, perceiving '>1 there had been no such restrictions placed on any other business with amusement devices up to now. 23 None of the residents who were present for the meeting indicated an 24 interest in the issue or objected to the deletion. 25 Council Action 26 Motion by Marks, seconded by Ranallo to delete all references to the 27 number of licenses for amusement devices contained in Conditional Use 28 Permit #88-08 which had been issued to Michael Bonaventura for the malt 29 shop at 3800 Silver Lake Road, finding that: 30 1. The deletion meets all three conditions which are required to be 31 satisfied before a Conditional Use Permit may be authorized. 32 2. There was no opposition demonstrated to increasing the number of 33 licenses allowed this establishment during the Planning Commission 34 hearing September 20th and no opposition to the deletion of license 35 limitations was expressed during the Council consideration. 36 3. The Council concurs with the Planning Commission perception that the 37 malt shop is an asset to the community. IN 3 Motion carried unanimously.
