Borup: I hope we are ready for a long meeting on the 21st. Okay. That leads us to our
last project. I was originally hoping we would at least be able to get to Item 18 and
perhaps continue the other three, but -- Mr. -- well, this -- actually -- and I hope that got
communicated to you, John. I know when we were anticipating putting this on the
agenda, staff didn't even want to put it on and I don't know if that was discussed with
you. I did with Christie. Anyway, we decided that it would go on with the understanding
that we may not make it and my understanding is that you want to proceed ahead on
that basis, so --
Wardle: Commissioners and Chairman, we were informed of that, so whatever you
want to do. We are at your mercy.
Borup: Okay. Commissioners? I'm not sure how much time we anticipate for the Comp
Plan amendment. Are we within the -- when was our last one? Within the six months?
Zaremba: As a text change I don't believe this is --
Borup: Oh, this is just a text change. Okay. I'm sorry. Thank you. Thank you,
Commissioner.
Zaremba: We have not opened the Public Hearings, is that --
Borup: No, we have not.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move we table Items 18, 19, 20, and 21 to our meeting of
August 21st.
Borup: Okay. I might make a suggestion maybe, to perhaps this could be first on the
agenda. The other two asked to have theirs moved. I think they could go in where they
fall. Would it be appropriate to maybe have this one first?
Zaremba: I would be happy to lead the August 21st meeting with Item 18, followed by
19; 20, and 21 and, then, the other continued hearings after that.
Borup: Mr. Wardle is that what you would rather -- or would you rather have it at the
end? Okay. So --
Zaremba: The motion is to table 18,.19, 20, and 21 to be the first items on our August
21st agenda.
Borup: Okay. You would be first on the agenda.

Rohm: Second.
Borup: Motion and second. All in favor. Any opposed? Did we cover everything?
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman -- I move we adjourn.
Mathes: Second.
Siddoway: Mr. Chairman?
Borup: Yes.
Siddoway: I believe that -- we can look to legal counsel, but I believe you should open
those hearings to continue them. If you table them, we will have to re-notice them.
Borup: Oh.
Siddoway: Is my understanding.
Bdrup: We don't want to do that. Because they have been noticed for this meeting and
everyone is at this meeting --
Wollen: If they are simply continued, I think that's -- it may be a matter of --
Borup: Has Council done it that way?
Wollen: It may be a matter of verbiage, but I believe that they received notice of this
hearing.
Siddoway: The City Council, I believe, does always open them on their agendas, if they
are going -- if they have been noticed for that date and, then, continued to another date.
It's kind of a semantic thing.
Borup: Well, what's the difference between open and tabling -- I mean continuing and
tabling it?
Siddoway: Good question.
Wollen: And I don't know -- I don't really know what --
Borup: Where are the parliamentarians here?
Wollen: Yes. The Robert's Rules of Order.
Borup: The meeting's over, so we are free to --

Wardle: I guess just for the sake of clarity and consistency with other applications, I just
-- maybe change the motion to continue to the next hearing, just because of -- I know
that this area has been contentious in terms of noticing issues, so --
Borup: So, let's not take any chances.
Wardle: Let's not take any chances, let's just continue the Public Hearing to the 21st.
Zaremba: I don't have a problem with that. We do have a motion on the floor, though,
that needs to be voted down.
Borup: No. We have already adjourned, so we need to reopen the meeting.
Zaremba: We didn't vote on the adjournment.
Wollen: Yes. The adjournment was never voted on. It was seconded, but it was never
voted upon.
Borup: Okay. We have a motion on the floor to adjourn the meeting. All in favor? All
opposed. Okay.
MOTION FAILED: THREE OPPOSED. ONE ABSENT.
Borup: Okay.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I would like to withdraw a motion I previously made and
substitute it with this motion. I'm sorry. You will need to open the Public Hearing before
I make a motion.
Borup: Yes. I'm sorry. I'd like to open Public Hearing CPA 03-033, and RZ 03-009,
and PP 03-019 and CUP 03-034. I'd like to open all four Public Hearings at this time.
Zaremba: I think we are learning why it's not advisable to conduct heavy thought after
midnight. Mr. Chairman, I move that we continue those four Public Hearings to be the
very first items on our agenda for August 21st, 2603.
Rohm: Second.
Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed? Thank you.
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES. ONE ABSENT.
Zaremba: Mr. chairman, I move we adjourn.
Mathes: I second.
