GREAT WESTERN RECLAMA~IflN ~ ]~C, - (Continued) Mr. Larry Gere of Floyd Weaver Engineers, representing the applicant, spoke in favor of the Minor Exception and displayed exhibits of the office building which will occupy the same property. He stated that the area which will be used for vehicle parking is over 250 feet back on the property; that the trucks to be parked there will leave early in the morning and return late in the afternoon; and that the cost of building a block fence would be prohibitive. Opponent Mr. William Holmes stated that he owns the property to the south of the subject property and that he represents other property owners directly south; and that the block fence is necessary in order to maintain the quality and integrity of the area and to obstruct the view of any unsightly use. A letter dated August 4, 1972 from the Santa Fe Land Improvement Company opposed the Minor Exception on the basis that the proposed use of the property is not its highest and best use. The City Attorney was instructed to prepare a resolution approving Minor Exception 72-13, subject to conditions contained in the Zoning Administrator's report dated August 8, 1972, on motion of Councilman Herrin, seconded by Councilman Evans and carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: Herrin, Evans, Villa, Yamamoto NOES: Griset, Patterson, Markel ABSENT: None PUBLIC HEARINGS AMENDMENT APPLICATION NOS. 705, 706, 707, 708, 709, 710, and 711 The Mayor stated that the public hearings on Amendment Application Nos. 705 through 711, inclusive would be combined into one hearing; that all of the Amendment Applications had been initiated by the Planning Commission to implement Plan A of the Warner-South Community Study.
