that it will require an amendment to the Etiwanda Specific Plan. He requested

cil as soon as possible for approval.

language for the horse trail requirements. The Specific Plan is silent about
the connective trail system. This should not require a Specific Plan Amend-
ment. Hewever, he would review this again.

print).

grading, utilities, and drainage shall be constructed to ultimate standards

(29)
Planning Commission was vindictive because Council had overruled them the
last time. He encouraged Council to restore his permit.
James Frost, City Treasurer, stated that he and his wife had been turned
away because she was carrying a baby. He felt this indicated the type of
business they really were.
Mr. Arsinage responded that this must have been in error because his li-
cense was the type which allowed children.
There being no further public response, Mayor Mikels closed the public hearing.
Mr. King stated this matter had come before the Planning Commission several
times while he was on that Commission. Reading through the minutes, he did not
see any opposition about the noise or hours of operation as in the past; nor
did he bear any input tonight.
Mr. Dahl stated there hasn't been any problems because the Boars Head has been
closing early and operating without any entertainment. He felt the Planning
Commission was right in their decision and would uphold the Planning Commis-
sion's decision.
MOTION: Moved by Dahl, seconded by Wright to uphold the Planning Commission's
decision and deny the appeal. Motion carried 5-0.

ted Council a letter which rebuttals to the Planning Commission's staff re-
port to Council.
There being no further public input, Mayor MikeIs closed the public hearing.

cision; therefore, this should be continued to the next meeting.

given permission for the temporary structures in order to give them time to
make the permanent improvements. This has not been done.
