AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
Herb Fletcher, 175 W. Lemon Avenue, felt the filing fee procedure
should be reviewed and made a comparison with two items which had
been before Council recently. He objected to a possibility that one
applicant might not have to pay additional filing fee should he re-
apply for a conditional use permit, although he operates a business;
whereas, the same opportunity was not presented to a homeowner whose
request for a specific type of roof was denied. Mr. Fletcher also
felt that at this time spending $200,000 for architects on a new
Civic Center was spending a great deal of money, especially when it
has not been decided just when it will be built ... the people should
be given the opportunity to vote on such a project, He noted that it
will only be 18 months before the next Councilmanic election -- that
the next Council may have divergent ideas. He felt that the entire
matter should be given serious and extensive consideration.
CONSENT ITEMS
It was MOVED by Counci1member Gi1b, seconded by Counci1member
Pellegrino and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that permission
be GRANTED to 1) John and Betsy Wild to erect a tent for Christmas
tree storage at 186 E. Duarte Road and 2) Hawkins Christmas Trees
to erect tents for Christmas tree storage at 721 W. Huntington Drive,
756 Sunset Boulevard and 1595 S. Baldwin Avenue. Conditions were
set forth in the staff report dated October 16, 1984.

the City of Irwindale to allow the construction of a three thousand
ton per day facility which would convert that much garbage into
