I REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 11 , 1992 0 PAGE 14 4 5 6 10 . UNFINISHED BUSINESS 7 8 A. South End Moratorium Extension 9 10 A memo from the City Manager recommended a six month extension 11 of the south end moratorium. 12 13 He noted that much of the expansion plans of Roger Bona, owner 14 of the service station in .the area, hinge on the alignment of 15 the roadway. He felt if Mr. Bona desires to do something on 16 his property this winter the matter can be brought before the 17 Council . 18 19 The appraisal for Rosie' s Cafe was received today. The 20 appraisal for the Good Luck Cafe should be coming in shortly. 21 22 Councilmember Marks inquired if an extension for six months is 23 really needed. He is uneasy with what amounts to a one and one 24 half year moratorium. 25 26 The City Manager advised that there is a provision in the ordinance whereby the moratorium can be terminated by the Is Council at any time within that six months . 29 30 Roger Bona stated he has decided his plans for the west side 31 of his building. He may need to shift his focus to the east 32 , side of the building depending on if the roadway shifts . He 33 stated his intention is to add character to the building as 34 his property is part of the gateway to the City. Mr. Bona 35 noted he intends to work with the City very cooperatively and 36 needs no funding for his project . 37 38 When he purchased the adjoining meat market six years ago, Mr. 39 Bona replaced a worn fence with a rustic fence and resurfaced 40 the area. He feels these improvements have been beneficial to 41 the area. 42 43 Noting that Mr. Bona has been a good resident , the Mayor 44 inquired if he had any problem with the moratorium extension . 45 46 Mr. Bona noted that . winter weather wouldprohibit most 47 improvements he has in mind but he stated he desires access 48 from the back of the meat market to his service station . 49 50 •
