Council Minutes, October 21, 1986 - Page3 City Attorney Martin stated that this was not a public hearing this evening, but rather an interpretation of the Code. Since gymnasiums are not listed in the Zoning Code, Council has been requested by the Planning Commission to approve of the clarification as to what classification of business a gymnasium falls under. Daniel Cortez, 11914 Liscomb Street, El Monte 91732, advised that he is one of the applicants for the subject business occupancy. It was the opinion of Mr. Cortez that his proposed business was closer to a reducing salon than to the classification given by the Planning Commission. He stated that individuals who frequent a gym do not usually "hang around ", but rather come, work out and leave immediately. Mr. Cortez did not want to invest in the renovation of the building without a firm commitment of an approval from the City. Councilman Froehle explained to Mr. Cortez the importance of the CUP process and the precedent the Council would be setting in categorizing his type of business. Councilman Gillanders moved to affirm the Plan- ning Commission's clarification of ambiguity to allow a gymnasium and /or health club in the C -2 zone with a Conditional Use Permit; and request that the Commission initiate an amendment to the Temple City Zoning Code, seconded by Councilman Froehle and unanimously carried.
