Urban Renewal Authority Disbanded
City Manager Arnold stated the reason this item was on the
agenda was to discuss the Future Status of the Urban Renewal
Authority.
Mr. Don Colcun stated the authority was again before the
Council to ask "how, if at all, do you want the Urban Renewal
Authority to proceed?" Mr. Ron Wemple inquired if the status
of the triangle changed, does Council have reason to expect ..
that My Garden People will be back with a proposal, did the
authority handle the proposal, to Council's satisfaction and
did the Council propose to declare the triangle area an his-
toric area.
City Manager Arnold responded to the points.individually and
added that reports would be coming to the Council in the im-
mediate future.
Ms. Margaret Mitchell suggested that she favored leaving the
authority adjourned rather than disbanning them in order that
the expertise of the members be available should a new pro-
ject proposed.
Two Councilmembers stated they felt the authority should be
disbanned at this point in time.
City Attorney Liley stated it would take some time to rees=
tablish another Renewal Authority,approximately two months.
Councilman Wilkinson made a motion, seconded. by Councilwoman
Gray, to.disband the Urban Renewal Authority. Yeas: Coun-
cilmembers Bowling, Gray, Wilkinson and Wilmarth. .Nays: Coun=
cilmembers Kross and.Reeves.

Ordinance Adopted on Second Reading I
Relating to Flood Hazard Areas and Providing
for Violations of the Ordinance
City Manager Arnold stated Council had tabled this ordinance
and directed that staff meet with Councilmembers Kross and
Wilkinson to review their concerns.
Councilman Kross stated the overall concern was that the
Ordinance needs to be adopted and work with an interim report
for control of flood within the Spring Creek area, to work
out some continuing policy issues on implementation of various
aspects of the Ordinance. Councilman Wilkinson expressed con-
cern for putting hardships on property owners based on future
developments.
Councilman Wilmarth requested clarification on the penalties
if the Ordinance was adopted and not enforced.
City Attorney'Liiey.stated if the City adopted the Ordinance
and did not enforce it, she felt the Federal Insurance Admin-
istration would hold the City to be not in compliance and im-
pose the -sanctions available.
City Manager Arnold will come back with a report on the time- '
table for the final report.
Mr. David Neenan, property owner on Spring Creek, stated he
had no problems with the federal requirements, but had serious
problems with the state requirements, and City requirements.
He recommended Council adopt the Federal Insurance Administration
standards and send back the interim report for study and exer-
cise more reason in that.
The City Manager stated he.would like to come up with a schedule
on July 17, 1979, for review of the interim report.
Councilwoman Gray made a motion, seconded by Councilwoman. Reeves,
to adopt, Ordinance No. 70, 1979, on second reading. Yeas: Bowl-:
ing, Gray, Reeves, Kross and Wilkinson. Nays: Councilman

mendation for a change in policy on the arterial street,
