ATTORNEY OPINION - Vnriances and Rezoning .
There was no discussion of clarification on variances and re-
zoning by the Planning Commission, but Mr. St�other stated
that he had talked to Mr. Harris who said he will check the
municipal code to see whether or not an amendment to the City
Ordinance can be made through the City Council. Mr. Anderson
will contact Mr. Harris regarding the clarification on vari-
ances and re-zoning. Councilman Wood pointed out that the
Council is more in favor of the variance than the re-zoning
because a variance enables the City to have jurisdiction over
what is built on the property until it has been built.
