is attempting to establish a policy for snow removal and this may become a city <br /> responsibility in the downtown area. The City is not talking about removing snow from <br /> private sidewalks but along Centerville Road and Main Street the plows are pushing <br /> ' snow onto the sidewalks. Mr. March will present a draft snow removal policy for <br /> Council consideration at their next meeting. <br /> Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned whether the City had removed any snow <br /> from the area. Mr. March stated that he directed Public Works to push the snow back <br /> from the area where the children wait for the bus; however, no snow has been removed. <br /> Mayor Swedberg questioned whether there would be a memorandum of understanding <br /> between the City and property owners concerning the snow removal policy. Mr. March <br /> explained when the policy is determined; Staff will notify residents and business owners <br /> in the downtown area. The City intends to clarify what conditions need to exist prior <br /> declaring a snow emergency, which will give property owners permission to push snow <br /> into the County right-of-way, and the City will remove sarne. <br /> Council Member Travis stated he drove by after he got the e-mail and it appeared to him � <br /> there was little or no effort to clear a path on the east side of Centerville Road and the i <br /> south side of Main Street. The children had stomped a path through the snow but the � <br /> property owner had not cleared even a walkway. Council Member Travis questioned I <br /> what the responsibility of the business owner is for snow removal. Mr. March indicated <br /> he has spoken to the business owner and he and the business owner came to an I I <br /> understanding that the sidewalk is a public sidewalk and the business owner is � <br /> responsible for removing the snow. � <br /> I <br /> Mayor Swedberg noted the City should rnake the schools aware of the designated � <br /> walking routes within the City. 'I <br /> Mayor Swedberg noted he had received an e-mail from a resident concerning citywide I � <br /> removal of snow from sidewalks and wanted to make Council aware it may need to be <br /> addressed at a tater time. ' <br /> X. NEW BUSINESS <br /> 1. Jovice A. Stevens — Rezone from R2 to I1 Rec�uest —(7007-20` Avenue� <br /> Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated residents present at the Planning and <br /> Zoning meeting were opposed to the rezone. This parcel is unique in size and shape and <br /> the owner would like to sell the property and a zoning change would make it easier to do <br /> so. There are larger concerns for the parcel due to the size and shape and the fact there is <br /> a floodway located on the property. The property owner is paying commercial/ industrial <br /> taxes based an use not zoning. Most residents did not object to the current operation but <br /> were opposed to expansion of the business or the rezoning the property. <br /> The rezone was denied because the property owner asked for industrial zoning which the <br /> Planning and Zoning Commission did not believe was an appropriate use for the <br /> property. There is commercial property along the side of the street the property is <br /> located on and the other side is zoned industrial. The business located on the property is <br /> Page 9 of 18 <br />
