It is hereby determined that the existing parking facilities in the City of Hutchinson are wholly inadequate to provide the required space for automobile parking in the business section of the City in order to prevent traffic congestion and to permit full use of existing streets and it is necessary to provide additional off-street parking facilities and for such prupose to barrow funds by issuance of parking revenue bonds.

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING -12- JULY 13, 1970 Questions were then raised about the condition and maintenance of the old hospital building and possible uses for it. The Administrative Assistant was directed to contact other government agencies and ascertain the possi- bility or utility of short-term use of the building. Alderman Black then raised a question of burning of tires at the tree dump and stated that he had received complaints about that happening. Engineer Priebe stated that occasionally the Park Superintendent will use a tire to start a pile of green wood and brush but seldom. A week or two previously, someone had carried fire to the pile of tires that were kept for this use and started a small fire which was shortly extinguished. The Council then made it plain that we shall not allow any burning other than wood and brush at this site from henceforth. Alderman Black then stated that he had received several reports of other than City vehicles drawing gasoline from the City's bulk plant. It was decided that the most probable cause of the complaints would be the unmarked cars leased by the police Department. The Administrative Assistant was directed to investigate the situation and determine whether or not it was possible that other private cars were taking gasoline. The City Clerk reported that the difficulties of getting out notices to so many property owners relative to the rezoning of half blocks on Franklin Street prevented a hearing on the appointed day of July 20th. A hearing was then set for Monday, August 17, 1970 at 8:00 P.M. at the regular Planning Commission meeting. There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting adjourned at 10:11 P.M. �w� REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 22, 1970 Mayor Kost called the meeting to order at 7:30 P.M.

The matter had been reported by the Planning Commission with no recommendation. Mr. Born explained that the original request for approval of 200 units had been diminished and they were requesting only 18 units for construction in calendar year 1970 and 40 units in calendar year 1971. This would take only about ten acres of the 66 acres in the development and would also provide screening distance from Highway 15 and other present or potential developments around the 66 acre parcel. Several interested citizens of the community appeared to question the effect of the requested mobile home park. There ensued a vigorous discussion that covered the space of about two hours. Alderman Black moved approval of the permit as requested with certain conditions to be detailed in later agreement.

Mayor Kost then recognized Mr. Tom Harstad who gave a report on recommendations to improve the utility of parking meters in the downtown area. No action was taken pending further decision on the off street parking program of the City. A committee from the Chamber of Commerce next appeared to urge the sale of $100,000 revenue bonds to refund present indebtedness for off-street parking and development of four more lots as previously recommended on Franklin Street. A discussion of over two hours was entered into. Alderman Black presented empirical evidence apparently demonstrating no urgent need for additional off-street parking.
