the case.

Mr. Bill Holland, architect, represented the applicant and described
s
their plans for a boutique shopping center with small specialty shops such as pottery,
plants, homemade candies, women's fashions, etc.; that the center is planned on a low
profile by purchasing older homes, moving them to the site and restoring them for the
shops. He explained that there will be a fence around the shopping center and a large
amount of landscaping; that adequate parking will be provided in the center rather
than on the street. He added that the property is presently vacant, with the exception
of an automobile parts shop which is under a five-year lease; that "B-1" zoning is
requested for the entire area because it gives them the flexibility that they need.
He stated that they are ready to begin the project immediately, and that it would be
completed in 2 to 3 years.
City Manager Townsend stated he wanted the Council to be aware that the
Planning Commission has not seen the plans for the project yet, as they were not
ready in time for the Commission's meeting. Commissioner de Ases stated he did not
see any need for the application to go back to the Planning Commission. Mayor Luby
stated he thought the project should go back to them to be presented like it is
before the Council at this time.
Mr. Nichols appeared before the Council to state that he had recently
acquired a car wash location across the street, and that he is in favor of the project.
Motion by Tipton, seconded by Gulley and passed, that the hearing be closed.
Motion by Tipton, seconded by Gulley and passed, with Mayor Luby voting

received regarding the notification of this public hearing was from the applicant.
