It was the consensus of the Commission that Item No. 4 on the Consent Calen-
dar, S 79-2, be considered under the Architectural Approval section of this
agenda.
ARCHITECTURAL APPROVALS
S 79~/ 9 Request of Mr. Marvin A. Bamburg for an ex-
Bamburg, M. tension of previously approved plans to construct
52 condominium units on property known as 3595 S.
Bascom Avenue in an R-3-S (Multiple Family/High
Density Residential) Zoning District.
Commissioner Kotowski reported that this item had been before the Site and
Architectural Review Committee this morning, and it is the recommendation of
the Committee that this item be considered by the entire Commission without a
recommendation.
Mr. Kee stated that Staff's recommendation is that the Planning Commission
grant the applicant's request for a one-year extension, subject to the previous
conditions of approval and the addition of a condition that the "landscaping
plan indicating type and size of planter material, and location of irrigation
system be submitted for approval by the Site and Architectural Review Committee
prior to the application fora building permit." Mr. Kee added that this project
meets the requirements of the zoning district (R-3-S, Multiple Family/High Den-
sity Residential) as it is currently constituted.
Commissioner Fairbanks asked Mr. Kee to comment on the reference in the Staff
Comment Sheet regarding the Condominium Zoning District.
Mr. Kee stated that if the Commission feels the application should be refiled,
the applicant will probably file the same plans; however, the application would
be for a zone change to CD (Condominium District) rather than an Architectural
Approval.
It was moved by Commissioner Kasolas, and seconded by Commissioner Kotowski,
that the Planning Commission extend its approval of S 79-2 for one year subject
to the previous conditions of approval and the conditions discussed in the Staff
Comment Sheet. Motion carried unanimously (6-0-1),

PD 80-06 Application of Rev. Lloyd Hastings on behalf
Hastings, L. of Calvary Temple Church for approval of re-
vised plans and elevations to allow construction
of an additional building on propewty known as
202 Railway Avenue in a PD (Planned Development/
Industrial) Zoning District.
Commissioner Kotowski reported that this item had been considered by the Site
and Architectural Review Committee this morning, and that the Committee is recom-
mending a conditional approval. These conditions are red-lined on the plans.
The Committee also recommended that the applicant review the plans with the Fire
Department and the Public Works Department. He added that the applicant has
agreed to expand the parking area to 50 spaces, and that the landscaping plan
will have to be returned to the Committee prior to the issuance of a building
permit. Additionally, the application no longer specifies a day-care center,
but rather an assembly hall.
Mr. Kee stated that Staff is recommending an approval of these plans, subject
to conditions listed in the Staff Comment Sheet.
Chairman Meyer questioned the comment from the Architectural Advisor concerning
the recommendation that wood trim be placed around all the doors and windows.
Commissioner Kotowski noted that the applicant has agreed to do this.
Commissioner Fairbanks questioned Condition U regarding a Permit to Operate
a Day-Care.
Mr. Kee stated that Staff has recommended the applicant contact the Fire De-
partment regarding that condition. He noted that the conditions were compiled
exactly as they arrived from individual departments.
Reverend Lloyd Hastings, applicant, appeared before the Commission to state that
he would contact the Fire Department regarding these conditions. He stated that
the church has no intention of operating a day-care facility, but rather a Sun-
day School.
Commissioner Kotowski commented that in this morning's Committee meeting, there
had been discussion concerning the cost of paving the entire parking lot at
one time. He added that the Committee is recommending that the applicant post
a bond which would allow them to complete the paving over a two-year period.
It was moved by Commissioner Kotowski, and seconded by Commissioner Kasolas,
that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council approve the re-
vised plans for PD 80-06, subject to the conditions listed in the Staff's
Comment Sheet as well as the conditions stated by the Site and Architectural
Review Committee. Motion carried unanimously (6-0-0).

PUBLIC HEARINGS
UP 82-10 Public hearing to consider the application
Green, R. of Mr. Richard Green, on behalf of •the First
Church of Religious Science of Los Gatos,
for a use permit to allow the establishment
of a church in an existing building on prop-
erty known as 730 Camden Avenue in an M-2-S
(Heavy Industrial) Zoning District.
Mr. Kee reported that the applicant is applying for a use permit to allow the
establishment of a church in an existing warehouse/office building. The church
will occupy approximately 3,900 square feet of the building. Of this space,
1,300 square feet will be used for office purposes and 1,600 square feet for a
meeting room. Attached is a letter from the applicant explaining the request
and indicating the hours of operation and the number of people who will be
present.
A church is allowed in all zoning districts subject to approval of a use per-
mit by the Planning Commission, and Staff is of the opinion that the establish-
ment of a church at this location is an acceptable use. As indicated by the
applicant, the major use periods will be in the evenings and Sunday mornings.
The parking demand for other uses in the complex occurs during weekdays. Thus,
a parking conflict should not occur. Fifty parking spaces are provided adjacent
to the proposed church and another 29 spaces are provided on-site, but further
away. Because of the proximity of the site to l~Jinchester Boulevard, traffic
will not have to travel through the Camden Avenue industrial area to reach it.
For these reasons Staff is recommending approval of this request.
Chairman Meyer declared the public hearing open and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item.
Mr. Richard Green, applicant, appeared before the Commission to speak in favor
of this application, stating that their church is essentially a teaching ser-
vice with worshipping on Sundays.
Na one else wishing to speak, it was moved by Commissioner Kasolas, and seconded
by Commissioner Fairbanks, that the public hearing be closed. Motion carried : ..
unanimously
RESOLUTION N0. 2119 It was moved by Commissioner Kasolas, and sec-
onded by Commissioner Kotowski, that the Planning
Commission approve Resolution No. 2119 approving
UP 82-10, subject to the conditions as listed in
the Staff Comment Sheet. Motion carried by the
following roll call vote:
AYES: Commissioners: Kasolas, Dickson, Howard, Kotowski, Fairbanks,
Meyer
NOES: Commissioners: None
ABSENT: Commissioners: Campos

At this time, it was the consensus of the Commission to consider Item No. 7
(TA 82-03) at the end of this evening's agenda, there being no one present
wishing to speak to this item.

~~ISCELLANEOUS
<eferral from Referral from City Council to the Planning
City Council Commission to consider Council recommendations
UP 82-06 on the application of J. D. Greenfelder on be-
Greenfelder, J. half of Atlantic Richfield Company for a use
permit to allow the conversion of the service
bays of a gasoline station to a 24-hour mini-
market while retaining the service islands
for gasoline sales and to allow off-sale beer
and wine sales on property known as 2015 S.
Winchester Boulevard in a C-3-S (Central
Business District/Commercial) Zoning District.
Mr. Kee reported that at its meeting of June 15, 1982 the City Council referred
this item back to the Planning Commission so that the following could be con-
sidered:
1. Restricted hours on the sale of beer and wine, and
2. Requiring that two attendants be on duty at the market.
The Council has recommended that there be no sale of beer and wine between the
hours of 10:00 P. M. and 7:00 A. M. Under state law, liquor cannot be sold be-
tween 2:00 A.M. and 6:00 A. M. It should be noted that the mini-market would
still operate on a 24-hour basis.
As the Commission may recall, at its
denied by a 5-1-1 vote (Commissioner
missioner Howard being absent).
May 11, 1982 meeting this application was
Kasolas voting against the motion, Com-
Staff is of the opinion that prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages after
10:00 P.M. might discourage some late night traffic at the market, thus allevi-
ating some potential problems. However, because it is customary to sell liquor
until 2:00 A.t~. in .the state, it will be an inconvenience for those who shop
after 10:00 P.M. and expect to purchase beer and wine.
Concerning the recommendation that two attendants be present, it is Staff's
understandir~y that Condition "0" submitted by the Fire Department would require
this.
Mr. Stafford noted that he had received additional input from the Chief of
Police this afternoon regarding this application. The Police Department did
have concern over the sale of beer and wine from a service station, in that
this activity may contribute to "impulse buying" and to "open containers in
automobiles."
...._ . _ . _ _ , ..,.T _ ~ f - , . _

Commissioner Fairbanks questioned how the applicant feels about operating
under the restricted hours, noting that it would appear to be difficult to
have the market open 24 hours a day but to shut down a portion of it during
the required hours.
Commissioner Kasolas stated that he also questioned this restriction. He
added that it was his feeling that the Commission is supposed to encourage
business--not discourage by too many restrictions.
Commissioner Howard stated he did not see a problem with restricting the
hours for selling beer and wine; however, he is against any situation where
alcohol and gasoline are being sold from the same outlet.
Commissioner Dickson stated that despite the many laws against alcohol and
driving, the Commission is seeing mare and more of these types of applica-
tions come before it. He added that he did not feel this type of use was
safe for the community; and, that this type of market use is not the ap-
propriate use for this particular location.
Commissioner Kotowski referred to the statement from the City Council, noting
that he was in attendance at the meeting wherein this development was dis-
cussed. It was his opinion that the Council felt that this would be yet
another place in downtown Campbell where people could purchase alcohol, and
they were concerned about this. He continued that he is not opposed~to:the
market use but he did not feel that the alcohol use is appropriate for the
area.
Commissioner Kasolas stated that the Commission cannot control conduct of
others. He added that the real issue is whether or not the Commission wants
to see a mini-market at this particular location.
Mr. J. D. Greenfelder, applicant, appeared before the Commission to speak for
the project. He stated that the dealer had basically agreed at the Council
meeting to the terms of the reduced hours. He continued that the beer and
wine sales of other similar markets represent approximately 10-15% of the
sales. They would like to reserve the option to return to the Commission
after a period of time to request a change of the hours, after they have
proven themselves. The dealer finds no problem with the requirement of two
attendants, although there has never been afire at any of their franchises.
Mr. Greenfelder then presented an artist's conception of the development.
He noted that they proposed to change the~sign that is shown on the plans to
a monument type sign using the same building materials as indicated for the
main structure.
Mr. Greenfelder stated that the dealer has indicated he is willing to deal
with the restricted hours for the sale of alcohol--this will be handled by
locking the doors of the coolers and posting signs explaining the non-
availability of the products. He added that they did not feel a total
restriction was really necessary.
7
It was moved by Commissioner Fairbanks, and seconded by Commissioner
Kasolas, that the Planning Commission refer this application back to the
City Council with a recommendation for approval, subject to modified con-
ditions as follows: -
l. There shall be no sale of beer and wine between the hours
of 10:00 P. M. and 7:00 A.M.
2. The applicant shall comply with the requirements of the
Fire Department regarding the number of attendants on duty.
3. There will be a review regarding the restricted hours of beer
and wine sales in six months' time.
Discussion
Commissioner Dickson sated that he would be opposing the motion because
he could not see that it conformed to the findings necessary for granting
a use permit.
Commissioner Fairbanks stated that she would like the record to reflect that
her feelings on this application had previously been that this particular
corner was not the ideal place for this type of use, and she still feels
this way; however, her feelings are not strong.
Chairman Meyer stated that she concurred with Commissioner Fairbanks.
Commissioner Kotowski stated that he would support the motion in this in-
stance and reflect Commissioner Fairbanks' comments; however, he stated
that he would like to say that he is opposed to any type of alcoholic
beverage sales from any outlet that also sells gasoline.
Vote
A roll call vote was taken on UP 82-06.
AYES: Commissioners: Kasolas, Howard, Kotowski, Fairbanks, Meyer
NOES: Commissioners: Dickson
ABSENT: Commissioners: Campos
The Commission took a break at 8:35 P. M.; the meeting reconvened at 8:50 P.M.
***
RE UEST Request of Mr. Jack Haigh to establish a
"Flea Market" use as a permitted use by Use
Permit in an M-1-S (Light Industrial) Zoning
District.
8
Mr. Kee reported that the applicant is requesting that the Commission
establish a "Flea Market" use in the M-1-S (Light Industrial) Zoning
District.
Staff is of the opinion that a "Flea Market" is not more objectionable than
other uses permitted in the Light Industrial Zoning District by way of a
conditional use permit (e.g., towing service and drive-in theatre operation).
The requirement of a use permit to establish such a use in this Zoning
District will additionally allow the Commission the authority to deny a re-
quest if a proposed location is deemed inappropriate, or to impose conditions
the Commission considers necessary if it wishes to approve a particular re-
quest for a flea market.
Mr. Kee continued that, should the Commission find this use allowable in
this Zoning District, then the applicant would have to come back before the
Commission with an application fora Use Permit. The Commission would not
be approving a flea market this evening. Staff is recommending approval of
this request, noting that the Use Permit process allows for a public hearing
and review by the Planning Commission.
RESOLUTION N0. 2120 It was moved by Commissioner Kotowski, and
seconded by Commissioner Kasolas, that the
Planning Commission adopt Resolution No.
2120 approving a "Flea Market" as a use
which may be applied for by Use Permit in an
M-1-S (Light Industrial) Zoning District.
Motion carried unanimously.
AYES: Commissioners: Kasolas, Dickson, Howard, Kotowski, Fairbanks,
Meyer
NOES; Commissioners: None
ABSENT: Commissioners: Campos
Staff Report Establishment of a "Flea Market" as a permitted
use which may be applied for in a C-2-S (General
Commercial) Zoning District.
Mr. Kee briefly reviewed this item for the Commission, stating that Staff is
recommending a use permit requirement for a Flea Market in the C-2-S Zoning
District. Staff has received complaints regarding the flea. market operation
in the Campbell Shopping Center on Winchester Boulevard and Lu`.imer Avenue
from the Calvary Chapel. He noted that the Commissioners have a letter at
their stations from the merchants' association at the shopping center in favor
of retaining the flea market. Staff would like to establish mechanics whereby
a flea market might be permitted with a use permit in the C-2-S Zoning District.
9
Chairman Meyer asked Mr. Kee what type of permit existed at this time for
the flea market being conducted at the Campbell Shopping Center.
Mr. Kee stated that to his knowledge no permit existed. The flea market
was approved for a one-time operation by the Council in November of 1971;
however, it has been operating ever since. He added that outside sales are
not allowed in any zoning district within the City, and that is why Staff is
attempting to get a procedure clarified.
Mr. Adam Alb, 1757 Winchester Boulevard, appeared before the Commission to
speak in favor of the flea market being allowed at the shopping center. He
stated that the flea market brings necessary business to the center, and
aids the center tenants in acquiring funds with which to maintain the center.
He pointed out to the Commission that the merchants' association has a permit
from the Commission and the City Council that was granted about eight years
ago.
In reference to Mr. Alb's statement concerning the permit, City Attorney
Dempster reviewed the minutes from the City Council meeting of November 8,
1971, wherein the following is stated:
"Councilman Podgorsek proposes and moves that the permit be
granted for one time only on a trial basis pending report from
the Police Department on the traffic situation, and that each
time the Center wishes to operate a flea market they apply for
a new permit, seconded by Councilman Rogers and unanimously
adopted."
Mr. Dempster continued that the issuance of a business license does not
mean one has a permit to have a flea market.
Commissioner Fairbanks asked Mr. Alb if he was in favor of the type of pro-
cedure the Commission was attempting to establish.
P1r. Alb stated that the association would like to continue the flea market
because it is good for the center.
Mr. Dave Roekle, Pastor of the Calvary Temple Church, appeared before the
Commission to protest the flea market use at the shopping center. He stated
that a parking problem is becoming apparent due to the rapid growth of the
church membership. He added that the parking lot at the center is supposed
to be non-restricted for all tenants, and the church is asking:to.use the
parking lot only on Sundays when the majority of the other shops are closed.
Commissioner Fairbanks asked Mr. Roekle if he was in favor of the procedure
the Commission is trying to establish.
Mr. Roekle stated that he was in favor of this use permit procedure.
Mr. Joe Guinta, president of the merchants' association, appeared before the
Commission to speak in favor of the retention of the flea market, noting that
without the monies earned from these events, there would be no lighting for
the center.
-10-
RESOLUTION N0. 2121 It was moved by Commissioner Fairbanks,
and seconded by Commissioner Howard, that
the Planning Commission adopt Resolution
No. 2121 approving a "Flea Market" as a use
which may be applied for by Use Permit in a
C-2-S (General Commercial) Zoning District.
Motion carried unanimously.
AYES: Commissioners: Kasolas, Dickson, Howard, Kotowski, Fairbanks,
Meyer
NOES: Commissioners: None
ABSENT: Commissioners: Campos
Commissioner Kotowski asked if this procedure would mean that each time the
Campbell Shopping Center wished to conduct a Flea Market they must apply for
a Use Permit, or could an applicant obtain a Use Permit for a specified length
of time.
Mr. Kee stated that the Use Permit could be approved with a specific period of
time as a condition. He noted that in this particular case, the Campbell
Shopping Center, the Commission may wish to recommend to the City Council that
the fee be waived because the group has had this type of use considered
previously by the Council.
It was then moved by Commissioner Fairbanks that the fees be waived for the Use
Permit application, when applicable, for the Campbell Shopping Center. Motion
dies for lack of a second.
***
Request Request of Mr. Stan Shore for a determination by
the Planning Commission that an automobile tune-
up shop is a compatible use in the C-1-S (Neigh-
borhood Commercial) Zoning District and should be
allowed with a use permit.
Mr. Kee reported that currently under the C-1-S zoning district the only type of
automobile service use which is allowed is that of service stations. Other
types of automobile service uses such as auto body repair, tire shops, etc. are
restricted to the C-2-S and industrial zones. Staff is of the opinion that an
auto tune-up shop use would be similar in intensity to the light automotive
repair which is performed in the service bays of many service stations. The
traffic to the use would be less than that of a service station. For these
reasons Staff is of the opinion that the use is compatible with the commercial
character of the C-1-S zoning district and that the Commission should add this to
the list of uses allowed with use permits. It should be noted, however, that
the use would be restricted to an auto tune-up shop only and that other types
of auto repair would not be deemed compatible with the district.
`q
-11-
In particular, Mr. Shore is interested in the site at 1550 South Winchester
Boulevard (the vacant Hudson service station) fora tune-up shop. If the
Commission makes the determination, Mr. Shore could apply for a use permit
for this location. The use permit would allow the Commission to set
conditions for upgrading the site. It should be noted that the existing
service station could be reopened with gasoline sales and tune-up work
performed in the service bays.
Mr. Kee continued that Staff is recommending that the Commission determine
that a tune-up shop may be com atible with the commercial character of the
C-1-S (Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District and add this to the list
of uses allowed by use permit.
Commissioner Fairbanks stated that she is opposed to this type of use in a
neighborhood commercial area because of possible noise and traffic problems.
RESOLUTION N0. 2122 It was moved by Commissioner Kasolas, and
seconded by Commissioner Kotowski, that the
Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2122
determining that a tune-up shop is compatible
with the commercial character of the C-1-S
(.Neighborhood Commercial) Zoning District, and
may be applied for by Use Permit. Motion
carried with a vote of 5-1-1.
AYES: Commissioners: Kasolas, Dickson, Howard, Kotowski, P~1eyer
NOES: Commissioners: Fairbanks
ABSENT: Commissioners: Campos
S 79-2 Request of Mr. Howard Hubbard for modifications
Hubbard, H. to an existing parking layout on property known
as 428 Salmar Avenue in an M-1-S (Light Industri-
al) Zoning District.
Mr. Stafford briefly reviewed this application for the Commission, stating that
the applicant is requesting approval of an existing fenced-in storage area
behind the building at 428 Salmar Avenue. The storage area occupies an area
indicated for 5 parking spaces.
Based on Staff's calculations, 66 parking spaces are required for the total
building. 6Jith the elimination of 5 parking spaces being utilized as storage
area, 63 spaces are available. Although this is 3 spaces less than required,
Staff is of the opinion that parking is adequate. Visits to the site on
several occasions have indicated many empty spaces. In addition, all 3 tenants
have submitted letters stating that parking is adequate. For these reasons,
Staff is recommending approval of this request, subject to the following
conditions.
-12-
1. Wood slats to be installed in chain-link fence storage area.
2. Applicant to submit a letter, satisfactory to the City Attorney, stating
that if parking becomes inadequate on the site, the storage structure will
be removed and parking reinstalled.
Commissioner Kotowski stated that this item was before the Site and Architec-
tural Review Committee this morning, and the Committee is recommending approval
based on Staff discussion.
It was moved by Commissioner Kotowski, and seconded by Commissioner Howard,
that the modifications to an existing parking layout (S 79-2) be approved,
subject to the conditions listed above. P1otion carried unanimously (6-0-1).
PUBLIC HEARINGS
At this time, the Commission returned to Item No. 7 (TA 82-03) on this
evening's agenda.
TA ~03 City-initiated public hearing to consider
Condominium Zoning possible text amendments to Chapter 21.07
District of the Campbell Municipal Code entitled
"CD (Condominium Zoning District)."
Mr. Stafford briefly reviewed the proposed amendments, citing the following
main areas of change proposed to the current Condominium Zoning District
Ordinance:
1. The specific procedures for the public hearing process are clarified.
The existing ordinance does not make any reference to the public hearing
process.
Z. The proposed standards for open space in residential condominiums are new.
(Section 21.07.080)
3. The standards for conversion as specified in the draft (Section 21.07.080)
propose the requirement that each unit be provided with individual utility
meters. This section will also require the applicant to submit documenta-
tion as to the condition of the property.
4. The proposed standard for Sound Transmission (Section 21.07.100) is new.
This standard is being recommended by the Building Official for inclusion
in the Condominium Zoning District.
Commissioner Kasolas stated that his main concern with the proposed amendments
is that it is imposing more requirements and governmental intervention, thereby
deterring construction of additional living units. In reference to the open
space requirement, Commissioner Kasolas stated that it is his opinion that
shelter is more important than open space. He felt that if the Commission was
trying to make it impossible to convert units, then it was not an appropriate
action.
-13-
Commissioner Howard stated that the requirement for individual metering was
of concern to him, noting that it just may not be possible to accornplish this
in many cases. He continued that he totally agreed with #1; #2 should be
re-worded because the stipulations may cause too many problems; #3 he understood
but disagreed with because it could actually halt a conversion; and #4 he was
not sure about.
Commissioner Dickson felt that new home buyers had a right to be protected and
to be aware that they were buying a converted unit, and that the restrictions
should be difficult.
Commissioner Kotowski expressed his concern for #2, noting that by stating
how much open space will be required and where that space may be placed in
relation to the housing, the restrictions may be working against the creativity
of the developer. He added that he could accept #1, 3 and 4.
Commissioner Fairbanks stated that condominium conversions could eliminate rental
housing stock which the city is charged with protecting.
She spoke in defense of open space requirements, noting that projects which have
been presented lately have not had the best possible utilization of usuable open
space.
After lengthy discussion, it was moved by Commissioner Fairbanks, and seconded
by Commissioner Dickson, that the Planning Commission adopt a resolution
recommending that the City Council adopt the draft of a revised Condominium
Zoning District Ordinance. Motion fails by the following roll call vote:
AYES: Commissioners: Dickson, Kotowski, Fairbanks
NOES: Commissioners: Kasolas, Howard, Meyer
ABSENT: Commissioners: Campos
***
It was then moved by Commissioner Kasolas that there be no change to the
present Condominium Zoning District Ordinance. Motion dies for the lack of a
second.
***
It was then moved by Commissioner Kotowski, and seconded by Commissioner Kasolas,
that the draft be referred back to the Committee for further study. Motion
carried by a vote of 4-Z-1.
***
-14-
Commissioner Fairbanks recommended that the Commission forward this.draft to
the City Council for their review and comment, as they have been asking for a
product.
Chairman Meyer stated that it was her suggestion that the Commission submit a
finished product to the City Council.
Commissioners Dickson and Fairbanks stated that they had worked very hard on
this document and even though it was being referred back to the Committee for
further study, it was their feeling that the product would be returned to the
Commission with no changes because they felt very strongly about their
recommendations.
City Attorney Dempster noted to the Commission that because TA 32-03 was being
referred back to Committee, it would be necessary to continue the public hearing.
***
It was moved by Commissioner Howard, and seconded by Commissioner Kotowski,
that TA 82-03 be continued to the Planning Commission meeting of July 27, 1982.
Motion carried by a vote of 4-2-1.
***
After further discussion, Chairman P~leyer thanked Commissioners Dickson and
Fairbanks for their efforts in preparing these text amendment recommendations,
and relieved them of their responsibilities. She then appointed Commissioners
Campos and Kasolas to the sub-committee to consider TA 82-03.
Commissioner Fairbanks wished the record to show that she was not resigning
from the committee, but being replaced.
OTHER ITEMS BROUGHT UP BY COMMISSIONERS
Commissioner Dickson noted that there have been traffic jams near the Winchester
Drive-in in the evenings, and asked if there was anything the City might do
about the situation.
Commissioner Fairbanks noted that the market on Sunnyoaks Avenue does not have
their rear parking area open in the evening, and this has created some traffic
problems.
ADJOURNMENT
It was moved by Commissioner Howard, and
seconded by Commissioner Dickson, that the
meeting be adjourned.
