Amendment (RZ 04-09) establishing a Farmers' Market as a conditionally
permitted use in the Central Business (CB) District Zone and establishing
standards for their review consistent with outdoor dining and/or merchandise

Director of Economic Development, Howard Sword, presented a staff report,
requesting that the item be continued to August 10, 2004.
Mayor Swisher noted that the public hearing was still open and asked for
public comments.
Rick Knoll noted that the first few weeks of the Farmers' Market were very
good. After Cornfest, business profit dropped by 60 percent and some people
had said that they would not come back to the Market since it had changed.
He asked about having permanent signs installed encouraging people to go to
the Farmers' Market to save the agrigulture in the City. The Market was a
resource and he did not want it to die out.
Pat Lindsey said that the scope was to make the downtown viable. There was a
parking problem downtown and the Market made it worse. The downtown citizens
were not for outdoor dining and merchandising.
Richard Bates stated that a list of proposed food items was to be submitted
from those running the Farmers' Market and and he did not have a list of
items proposed to be sold. He asked to have the list in order to build a
consensus as to what items could be sold at the Market.
Lynn Gursky, Gursky Ranch, said she believed that Council needed more
backround. Harvestime Members had worked hard and promoting agriculture in
City was what sold the Farmers Market. She said that the Farmers wanted to
bring people into downtown it should be promote and celebrated since it was
a community effort.
Council Members Petrovich and Hill said that they believed since this was a
Chamber of Commerce event, the Chamber should decide what was appropriate
since they were the operators.
Motion: Approve continuance of the public hearing to August 10, 2004.
Moved by Swisher, seconded by Gutierrez.
Vote: Motion carried 5-0.
Yes: Gutierrez; Petrovich; Swisher; Beckstrand; Hill
