COUNCIL COMMUNICATIONS
COUNCILMAN WATERS said he received three calls this week in regard to
the zoo in the park and asked if the master plan was to upgrade that
area. City Manager Osburn said the master plan calls for moving the
zoo over near the back of the Library, Councilman Waters asked if they
intended to enlarge cages, etc. for the animals. City Manager Osburn
said they do. Councilman Waters said this was the main complaint; he
was just bringing this to his attention and it could go back to the
Park & Recreation Board for consideration.
COUNCILMAN WATERS said new subdivisions have gone up in the Sweetwater
Heights area; there were complaints about cars traveling at high speed.
Mr. Waters asked what the regulation in regard to speed in residential
area was and would the City Manager suggest these zones be posted due
to a request for that in the Stockman Street area. City Manager Osburn
said they will see what they could do and bring a report back on it.
COUNCILMAN PINSON said several weeks ago the Mayor assigned him to a
committee of 5 people to go to the Van Camp Cannery at San Jose, California;
that was the first he knew a fish cannery was being proposed or even
recommended for this area by anyone; trying to do his duty he complied
with the Mayor's direction and went to the Van Camp Cannery; he brought
back a report which neither indicated that he was for or against; he
made simple statements as to what he thought of the cannery; since then
he saw that the paper says their citizens were up in arms about the
cannery; all he was concerned with was the citizens of this City; if
they want it, he would vote for it; if they don't want it, he would
vote against it; so far, he had received nothing but adverse requests
to not have this cannery; the paper indicated he was for a cannery; he
would like to go on record as saying he was not for a cannery; if the
paper would be so good as to print this; the City has an ordinance
prohibiting fish canneries.

MAYOR MORGAN said parking was brought up last week and he would like
the City Manager to move the Council and Mayor's parking down from in
front of the City Hall and any other parking he thought should be moved
down there; but he would like to see the Sheriff keep a spot out there
and the highway patrol; the highway patrol has a little spot they can
pull in there; those items should be kept there because they were in
and out with the people; it was time they moved the Mayor, Council, and
department heads down in the parking lot and let the people who want to
do business with the City come in here and do their business and so they
can get as close to City Hall as they could get. Moved by Morgan,
seconded by Reid, they authorize the City Manager to go ahead and work
this out and mark it the way he thinks it should be marked for he
benefit of the people who come to City Hall, City Manager Osburn asked
if he wanted them down below the bridge. Mayor Morgan said they were
going to give him the authority to go ahead with whatever he thought
Should b9 done there; if he thought they should be moved further down,
they should; if this motion carried, it was his intention to give the
City Manager authority to do whatever he thought was proper there to
fit in with good parking for the people who come to City Hall. Councilman
Waters said while the City Manager was at it, why couldn't he work on
these two places across the street; there was no question in his mind
that with the growth of the City they will need more parking. City
Manager Osburn said the City did not have the money to purchase those
properties. Carried by unanimous vote,
