do we need findings of fact or can we just.
Crookston: No, it can be transferred as long as it is in the same place as it always has
been it can be transferred.
Morrow: Question Mr. Mayor, this is the first time that we have gone through this and it
was my understanding that conditional uses went with the owner, are you saying that it
can be transferred with all the same conditions in place as long as there is not request for
a change of any of the conditions it was originally approved under than it can be
transferred?
Crookston: It can be transferred at the request of the person to which the initial day care
conditional use was granted to and that the proposed new applicant agrees with that and
agrees to be bound by what was done?
Morrow: I see thank you.
Corrie: Any further discussion? I will close the public hearing for the transfer of conditional
use to New Horizon Child Care by Trudy Cumba. Council?
Rountree: Mr. Mayor, I move that we approve the transfer of conditional use permit.
Morrow: Second
Corrie: Motion made by Mr. Rountree, second by Mr. Morrow that we approve the transfer
of conditional use permit from New Horizon Child Care by Trudy Cumba, any further
discussion? All those in favor say aye? Opposed?

ITEM #8: PUBLIC HEARING: TRANSFER OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO NEW
HORIZON CHILD CARE BY CHRIS WILSON:
Corrie: At this time I will open the public hearing and invite the public who wish to testify
on this? Council any questions or discussion?
Morrow: The only question and discussion I had was on Bruce Freckleton's comments
from the City Engineer's department he talked about the water to this facility is from an
existing service line that connects Ponderosa Paint store and this facility together. With
this arrangement it is impossible to know whether the assessments collected by the City
are within reason or not. A solution to this problem would be if there were a separate

service line installed for this facility. There aren't any problems to mention with the.
existing sewer service line. And then the applicant be required to enter into a
reassessment agreement with the City. I think from my perspective it makes good sense
to have those on separate services so I would offer that as a point of discussion to the
Council.
Corrie: Council discussion?
Tolsma: I agree with Walter, it would be a lot easier to (inaudible).
Rountree: I agree also, would that be another condition we would add onto this permit?
Morrow: That would
Rountree: Or is it a condition of approval?
Morrow: Condition of approval.
Smith: Mr. Mayor, I think when this was originally done by Mr. Ross the owner of the
building that the day care will be, I think he is still the owner of the building that the
Ponderosa Paint store is located in. He was assessed for both of those building and I
believe it is under one meter account. If he is still the owner of each building then I would
assessment would go to Mr. Ross and if it is not if the assessment at this point is not
concurrent with the water usage than we would need to upgrade his assessment. I agree
that it would be nice to know how much each facility is using and perhaps he would want
to know that also in order to retrieve the monies that he would be assessed. So I guess
Bruce's comment about a separate service would be very appropriate if the buildings are
under separate ownerships. However, I wonder if they are still under one ownership and
the assessment was to Mr. Ross than and we have one meter serving both facilities and
I believe that was at his request when it happened originally. That we can reassess him
as the owner of both buildings and he can pay the difference. How he collects it from his
tenants I guess would be up to him if that makes sense. Because they are assessed
sewer based on their water bill too. And again it is up to him as the owner to decide how
much he is going to charge each one of the building users. If he feels comfortable with the
arrangement that he has right now I don't know that we would have any different concerns
about it.
Morrow: But do we know that?
Smith: I do not know that he is the owner of both buildings no sir.

(Inaudible)
Smith: I think this would be similar to a four plex living unit that had a single water meter
which we have a number of. The land lord just decides, well it is a little different because
you have different uses here but the land lord would decide how much he is going to
charge each building user. It is up to him to split that out. Unless he can't make that
decision and he would opt on his own to have a separate service for each building. But
in summary we definitely need to bring the assessments up to date as far as the amount
of water he has been using. If there is .a disparity there it needs to be corrected.
Corrie: Any further discussion from Council? If not' will close the public hearing. Council
your decision?
Morrow: Mr. Mayor, I would move that we approve the transfer of the conditional use
permit. I would like to subject that to the, .as long as the building remains under common
ownership with the paint store that one water service line will be fine should they be sold
it would be mandatory for another water service line to be installed to the day care center.
Rountree: Second
Corrie: Motion has been made and seconded we approve the transfer of the conditional
use permit subject to the common user pay separate line charges if necessary, any further
discussion? All those in favor say aye? Opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: All Yea
