CRAWFORD, 4705 NORTH SHORE DRIVE - <br />VACA nON - RESOLUTION #3667 <br />Hurr moved, Goetten seconded, to approve Resolution #3667 for vacation. Vote: Ayes <br />4, Nays 0. <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT <br />Callahan noted the concerns e.xpressed in the past regarding the building of an ice arena, <br />and the need for a change in th ordinance. The Planning Commission was to review the <br />ordinance, but the review was expanded by Staff to include review of a wider range of <br />uses, greenhouses, clubs, tennis clubs, YMCA, gun clubs, boat clubs, etc. Callahan asked <br />It the Council should direct the Start and Planning Commission to only review the ice <br />arena use. <br />Goetten remarked that she was of the opinion that the particular use for the ice arena <br />would be reviewed. <br />Hurr said she felt it would be wise for the Staff to anticipate regulation in regards to the <br />Veterans Camp. Hurr said she has not read the information given to the Planning <br />Commission and would need to do so. Goetten said it was unknown what would be done <br />at Big Island. <br />Callahan opined that the c*conomics of time would keep the discussion to the ice arena <br />only. <br />Jabbour said the ice arena has an immediate need with plans to begin construction in <br />spring. Although the Board of Education will not sign the lease for the arena without <br />90% of the funding, the Boosters are very organized and have already raised 1 .3 million. <br />The lack of financial information on the Boosters was noted. Mabusth said information <br />regarding finances would be in the Planning Commission minutes from their meeting of <br />January 16.
