VI. Discussion followed on proposed Ordinance of City Council repealing
Ordinance #224 --- an Ordinance requiring commercial building applications
to be submitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission for a building permit.
Mayor Nix advocated the change to allow the Building Inspector to issue
these permits, contending there was unnecessary dealy to citizens. The
Commission agreed to the intent of the repeal with the suggestion that the
Building Inspector was going to be exposed to public pressures he possibly
shouldn't have to incpr and the understanding the Building Ispector should
refer major commercial and industrial building permits to the Commission
for their thoughts before permits are issued.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
