Motion declared carried Laurance Elwell stated that he wanted to go on record as opposing any assessment against his property as the only benefitting properties would be the TRA and Medina Recreation properties. He stated that this would be a cosmetic benefit to allow creation of add- itional commercial property for a small group of people. He reported that that he had observed the water run-off on Monday night and found that storm water did not reach the bottom of the culvert underneath Evergreen Rd. and that the culvert had been damaged some years ago by the telephone company. He explained that he could tile his property toward a ditch that would run in a different direction. He asked that someone inspect the area and make a determination as to how much water would run through the culvert. Wilfred Scherer stated that he would inspect the culvert with Mr. Elwell. Thomas Crosby asked how benefitted properties were determined. Glen Cook stated that they had determined where the water divide was and the line defined was very near to where the water runs north and south.

She stated that Council would need to discuss the fact that the survey done by Gordon Coffin does not agree with an old survey completed by Jackson Surveying, which now in- dicates that Mr. Huars garage is partially on the lot to the east. Thomas Crosby stated that Council approves a legal description and the applicant decides where the lines are located. Mr. Huar stated that the neighbors agree that the old survey should be used.. JoEllen Hurr stated that the setback variance that has been requested needs to be con- sidered according to one survey or the toher. Bruce Luxford, buyer of the Huar's vacant parcel stated that the city had required a new survey and that is the one that should be used. Moved by Crosby, seconded by Heideman to authorize preparation of a resolution approving the Art Huar subdivision of Lot 18, Auditors Subdivision 241, into two equal tracts. Motion declared carried Richard Schieffer stated that the Council should act on the front yard setback variance request but if a buyer construct a house 10 ft. from the side lot line the city would be recognizing either one or the other survey.

Motion declared carried Reed Bales, Subdivision and Conditional Use Permit JoEllen Hurr explained Mr. Bales request for a Conditional Use Permit to operate a saw- mill on willow Dr., south of Hwy. 55.

Thomas Anderson asked what the ordinance requirement was regarding businesses without structures. Mrs. Hurr stated that the ordinance does not address that possibility. Thomas Crosby asked Mr. Bales to describe his operation. Reed Bales explained that he would be receiving trees from tree services, etc. would debark, saw lumber and chip.

Mr. Bales explained that he would have a modern sawmill, a chipper and a debarker. William Reiser asked if it would be operated inside a structure. Mr. Bales stated that hopefully in one to three years the mill could be enclosed. Mr. Reiser asked how many trucks would be delivering or picking up materials each day. Mr. Bales explained that approximately five trucks per day would be on the property with the possibility of more in the summer. Mr. Crosby asked how the finished lumber was handled. Mr. Bales explained that it could either be sold wet or air dried. Mr. Anderson asked if the office would be built immediately. Mr. Bales stated that it would be built at this time. Mr. Reiser asked if anything was known about the noise levels. Mr. Anderson stated that he was going to suggest that the project not exceed noise levels at the perimeter of the property as other owners of abutting properties may object. Wally O'Dell, real estate salesman, stated that Mr. Bales purchase agreement is with the owners of the entire parcel. Mr. Bales stated that once the operation is enclosed the noise levels will be diminished.

Moved by Scherer, seconded by Heideman to authorize preparation of a resolution granting a 6 ft. setback variance from Lakeshore Ave. and a 24 ft. setback variance from Spruce St. to allow Ron Dahl to construct a garage at 3026 Lakeshore Ave., reason for the variance is to allow the garage to line up with existing buildings on the street and because the property slopes to the rear.

He explained that there would be two people selling tickets and working security during the week and four people on weekends along with the manager and assistant manager. He stated that for the first two weeks of operation he would not be able to offer premium movies because of the lead time required but after that first run films would be offered. Thomas Anderson asked about control of speakers after patrons leave the premises. Mr. Lee explained that his security personnel would turn the volume down periodically during the evening after people left. Police Chief, Sankey, suggested delaying speakers in the back rows. Mr. Anderson asked if Drive In Theatres were declining in numbers. Mr. Lee explained that property is becoming more valuable and that the market for theatres increases for those that are remaining and because of its location the local theatre is a prime piece of property.
