1. The City Council discussed in general terms, the implications of
Ordinance No. 575 (1973 Series) and Exibits "A" and "B" of said ordinance.
The City Council discussed ways and means of arriving at a method or system
that would allow reasonable exceptions to the requirements of the ordinance.
A. J. Shaw, City Attorney, presented his opinion that the City's usual
variance procedure could not be utilized to grant exceptions to the pro-
hibitions against construction in certain flood prone areas defined in
Ordinance No. 575. If the City Council desired to provide such exceptions,
it was his recommendation that the standards and procedures for granting
exceptions be specifically delineated in a resolution.
The City Council instructed the City Attorney with City Staff, to present
guide lines for Council consideration of exceptions or variances to the
provisions of Ordinance No. 575.
The City Council concluded their discussion of steps to be taken for
future protection of flood prone areas.
2. On motion of Councilman Brown, seconded by Mayor Schwartz, the
meeting was adjourned to Monday, March 12, 1973 at 7:30 P. M. Motion
carried.
APPROVED:
