-- . Hornbostel: Ok, the other question I have is are the powerlines going to be underground in this project? Cudlip: No, they are not. We did look into doing that but the cost to underground the powerlines both on South Boulder Road and Highway 42 were just astronomical. Carnival moved to adopt Resolution No. 24, Series 1991, seconded by Davidson. Davidson: I would like to make one comment in reference to the letter from the business people. They may indeed be right that the last thing the City needs is another video rental store. I don't feel the City Council, as a government body, can get into the process of selecting what business can or cannot come to Louisville. I think it is up to the free enterprise system to determine that. I have full faith in that, and although I can appreciate that the owner of the video store in the Safeway Plaza and the one in Lafayette are going to be hurt by it, I don't think it is appropriate for the City to deny a business coming to town for those kinds of reasons. Cudlip: We are very careful about the tenants we select and put into our centers. We have turned down several tenants already that would not be conducive to the business that we are looking for in this center. We have signed a lease with a gourmet coffee store for the other half of the 1,500 sq. ft. building. The building is fully leased at this time.
