City Manager Gillison clarified that the City received two letters from Phelan Development dated July 20th
and July 21s' which are included as part of the record and on the dais before Council. He has been in
discussion with legal counsel regarding a response to their request to meet with Council without staff and
legal counsel. As Phelan Development noted in their letter and during staff discussions with them, they
continue to make the point that if the Development Code amendment is approved their buildings would no
longer be able to be occupied by industrial tenants that would otherwise be allowed to occupy them. This is
why they say the Code Amendment is unacceptable. Staff has asked for examples from Phelan
Development, but none have been received by the City. Mr. Gillison shared that the City will continue to
work with Phelan Development in the future, but their proposal has been that the City's Code is
unacceptable.
