City Attorney Whitt Wyatt stated their other clients also use a trust, and he sees no reason not to move forward. Mayor Newton asked staff if the broker/consultant receives a commission.

Mayor Newton stated this contract with CWD will maintain the commercial status quo and asked Mr. Garabedian and Mr. Noel if they were now comfortable. Mr. Garabedian explained how many contractors dispose of construction debris, and stated the demarcation is if a roll off container is used. He further asked Mayor Newton if this ordinance changes the Land Development Code. Mayor Newton replied there is no change to the Land Development Code, we will continue with the status quo unless there is a change in public opinion. Mayor Newton asked Mr. Hansen to respond to the roll off. Mr. Hansen agreed, and stated exclusive in this context means a roll off or front load container, and if another company is hired to provide a roll off, it would violate the franchise agreement. Mr. Noel stated the Mayor does not see any changes and asked Mr. Hansen if he was in agreement. Mr. Hansen said we will operate at the status quo. Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Hansen if he was aware of problems in the past. Mr. Hansen replied there is always potential for issues to arise.

Mayor Newton asked staff to clarify what is before the City Council. Director Bryner stated to approve the R-20 zoning on this item, a super majority vote of six would be required and this item would need to be tabled. Mayor Newton said he was willing to move forward. City Attorney Wyatt clarified stating, “for clarity, any action Council would take tonight to overrule the Planning and Zoning Commission’s denial of this application would require six affirmative votes, which would be a unanimous vote of the eligible members to vote. That being said, it is not required that motion be put on the table, if you do consider the item, you may table it, make other motions to the item which may or may not require a super majority vote, that decision is up to the Council.” Councilmember Taylor asked the City Attorney if it is correct that the super majority of six, is not reduced by recusal or absence. City Attorney Wyatt replied that is correct. Councilmember Taylor stated he wanted that on the record. Mayor Newton stated this is a question of equity for the applicant.

He stated he looked at the lot width and depth, and believes there are still options for building on the lot. Councilmember Wheat asked if this ordinance is to overrule R-20. Director Bryner agreed. City Manager Ducay asked staff if you were to zone it to R-40 and then variant it down to be able to build on it, would you then face the same neighborhood concerns that you are setting a precedent. Director Bryner replied yes; however, one of the major concerns is the minimal lot coverage, as Councilmember Taylor mentioned. He felt the building size, waivers, and platting requests would be of concern. Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if the applicant was present. Mayor Newton replied the applicant is not present. Councilmember Coplen stated she feels she is in agreement with everyone that this should be R-40 and AG, and she wasn’t sure how the motion was going to go, but for the record, she feels, to keep in line with the way this process should be, we need to have everyone here.
