Motion carried unanimously .

Councilman Letourneau arrived during this discussion at 7:45 P.M. , and indicated he agreed with the. Mayor that such a sign could not be con- sidered precedent setting because .the conditions under which the temporary permission would be granted are unique to only this group of businesses.
