Motion by CM Gonzales to approve the appeal as presented to Council and to instruct legal counsel to work with staff to prepare a resolution to that affect, working with the owner and the community. Motion failed due to lack of a second. There was discussion regarding the continuance of this item to the November 191h Council meeting. CM Oliva asked if the town hall meeting could be held at the Luque Center. MPT Toro recommended that we keep November 191h as the set date and asked that a committee be formed comprised of Council Members Suchil, Oliva and Bennett, to represent the Council at the town hall meeting.
