Allen requested to be heard before the voting on the second reading of this ordinance. He presented the following communication and spoke regarding same: January 18, 1966 Honorable Mayor, City Council and City Manager of the City of Fort Collins Fort Collins, Colorado Gentlemen: You have passed on first reading the Ordinance amending Chapter 2 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Fort Collins, 1958, as amended, relating to fermented malt bever- ages. I would suggest and request the following amendments prior to final passage: In Section 2-26 add at the end of the first paragraph: "except as provided in Ordinance No. , 1966." The reason for this is that in some of the bowling alleys in which minors are allowed under the ordinance, beer is consumed, even though not sold directly in the area where bowlirg is taking place. On Page 2, Section 2-27, it is my understanding that after investigation, the Chie of Police is of the opinion that the candle foot power should be one foot rather than 1.4 feet. We would also like to add, immediately following the sentence "For the purpose of this section adequate lighting is hereby defined as 1 foot candles at 30 inches height from the floor," the following: "lighting shall be measured by a Weston Master V meter or compar able meter." It is our understanding that this is one of the finest light meters available, and In the investigation it was shown that some of the poorer meters will not register even though lighting is obviously present in adequate amounts. Very truly yours, /sl W. H. Allen After discussion between Mr. Allen and members of the Council, motion was made by Councilman Carson, seconded by Councilman McMillan, that the second reading of Ordinance No. 5, 1966, be tabled for two weeks and the amendments requested by Mr. Allen be taken under further investigation for recommendations by the administration.
