He stated this is in draft form assembled from culling the record with findings <br /> included and could be approved as presented or changes could be made if Council <br /> desired. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENT <br /> Mayor Muckle called for public comment and hearing none, called for Council comment. <br /> COUNCIL COMMENT <br /> Mayor Pro Tern Dalton pointed to the last phrase of the second page of the resolution. <br /> He thought the phrase indicated the 54,000 retail space was needed and wasn't sure <br /> that conclusion was accurate. He felt the retail the residents wanted was not likely to <br /> happen at this site and felt all the findings were subjective. He wondered if all the <br /> statements were necessary <br /> Attorney Light stated this document would be a record of the Council's denial and stated <br /> there need not be numerous findings if Council preferred. <br /> Mayor Muckle suggested exact numbers were not important, but felt some statement <br /> was necessary regarding a significant reduction in retail space being a problem. <br /> Council member Yarnell wondered if there was a need to look at how much retail was <br /> enough or if a general statement would suffice. <br /> Attorney Light suggested Council could add the phrase "extensive an" without specific <br /> numbers. <br /> Council member Loo was in favor of a more general approach. She thought it was <br /> difficult to capture the feeling of the entire Council as there were many differing reasons <br /> for opposing. <br /> Mayor Muckle called for public comment. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENT <br />
