The public hearing was opened by Mayor Stadshaug.
There were no comments from the audience.
Motion by Hardin,seconded by McDonald, that the Public hearing
be closed.Motion carried.
Ordinance No. 525,amending Ordinance #433 entitled "The
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the ^ity of Moses Lake,
Washington by establishing an "MIA"zoning classification,
was read by title only.
Mr.Hardin suggested that the reference to the product should
be the same in Sections 180.10 and 180.20.
Mr.Hoeft said that flammable liquids was a general term and
perhaps the term liquified petroleum products should be used
to replace the term flammable liquids.
Mr.Waggener suggested that Section 180.10 be amended to
read "....for above ground storage of bulk petroleum and
liquified petroleum products,and to create a greater flexi
bility within the zoning regulations for those industries of
large quantities of above ground storage of bulk petroleum and
liquified petroleum products."
Motion by Ebbert,seconded by Eng, that the second reading
be accepted and Ordinance No. 525 be adopted,with the amendment
as stated by Mr.Waggener.Motion carried.
A.J.BREITMEIER -PETITION
Pat Nevin reported on right ofway width on Concord Street,as
requested in the informal study session.The first house off
Paxson Drive is 33'from the centerline.One other house is
43•from centerline.Other houses would not be critical with
a 60•right of way.It was felt that a 50*right of way would
be better.This would put the first house 8*back of sidewalk.
Graveling could go in the existing area with no problem.
Mr.Breitmeier stated that he had talked to different people
since the meeting and they were in no better position than they
were,and still will go for the seceding.
Mr.Waggener pointed out that it will take an election of
the entire city to reduce the city limits.Mr.Waggener
questioned why people in this area expect more from the city
than other people.The city has offered a concession to do
more than has ever been done.'^'he city has offered to do the
grading if the people will put the gravel on.Less has been done
in this area because one property owner, Mr.Breitmeier,has
refused to dedicate right of way.One other piece has not been
dedicated,but that property owner has indicated that if we
had a deed, he would sign it immediately.
Mayor Stadshaug said that the petition as offered does not meet
the requirements,and Council can only note receipt of it.He
emphasized Mr.Waggener1s points, and added that the city has
been accused of not providing service in the area, but it is not
allowed to do it.Service can be rendered only on streets when
they are dedicated and brought up to standard.
Motion by Hardin,seconded by Eng,that council note receipt of
the petition.Motion carried.
April 13,1965
MARKET STREET LID -REQUEST AUTHORIZATION TO CALL BIDS
Letter was read from Pat Nevins,Public Works Director,requesting
authorization to call for bids for grading,graveling,constructing
and installing storm drainage,curbs,sidewalks and asphalt
concrete pavement on Market Street from a point 258 feet west
of the centerline of Grape Drive to Paxson Drive,as provided
in Ordinance No. 519.The proposed time for opening bids would
be at 2:00 P.M. on Friday,April 23, 1965.The information
would then be presented to Council on April 27, 1965.
Motion by Ebbert,seconded by McDonald,that the call for bids
be authorized.
LIBRARY -DEMOLITION OF OLD BUILDING
Letter was read from City Manager, Chester L. Waggener,requesting
authorization to obtain informal quotations for demolition and
removal of the old library building.A performance bond will
be required, and a time limitation established with penalty
provisions.Mr.Waggener explained that this will probably be
done in two parts. We will probably get quotes to demolish the
building down to the concrete,but we will obviously have to
pay for removal of the concrete.
Motion by Holm,seconded by Skaug,that the city Manager's
request to obtain informal quotations be granted.Motion carried.
WHEELER ROAD INTERCEPTOR SEWER -INFORMATION REGARDING BID CALL

Control Commission.Bids will be opened at 2 o'clock p.m.
Friday,April 23 and presented to Council for consideration on
April 27.
Mr.Waggener explained that they had moved ahead with this
because of the size of the job and the complexity of it.
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT ORGANIZATION
Letter was read from City Manager.Chester L.Waggener,advising
Council that administrative responsibility for Equipment
Maintenance and for Airport has been assigned directly to the
Public Works Department.This will allow utilization of the
Public Works cost accountant to formulate an improved record
keeping system for the Equipment Maintenance Division,and
will otherwise provide closer supervision and correlation of
the Equipment Maintenance function.Maintenance of Airport
facilities has always been a Public Works function because
they have equipment necessary to perform needed tasks.
