24 votes to override the decision of the Plan Commission.

30 refer this issue back to the Plan Commission with a suspension of the
31 rules.
32
33 Mr. Dooley stated that the Plan Commission felt the problems fell under
34 the jurisdiciton of the restrictive covenants of the development and not
35 the zoning ordinance of the City. They acted on the request to vacate
36 a utility easement and all utility companies have indicated they do not
37 need this easement and the owners deserve to use it.
38
39 Councilperson Whitesell stated he viewed this request as more of a special
40 use request and the impact on the neighborhood rather than the city as
41 a whole.
42
43 Mr. Dooley responded to Councilperson Bodiker's question regarding
44 redefining the property lines by stating that the owners do not need the
