Ms. Harris concluded by stating that the applicant has appealed the decision of the Commission to the City Council. The appeal was filed in a timely manner and asks that the Council review both the project denial and the Commission's decision to restrict the property to R -3 type development. 1.

Council discussed zone changes and interpretation of the code.

R -3 is generally more restrictive than C -2 and therefore should be applied. (2) Council Minutes November 15, 1988 SPECIAL ORDERS OF BUSINESS (continued) 1.
