the 4 1/2 mile limit should the County not have code enforcement

The existing 80 foot wooden antenna would be removed and the metal
antenna would be constructed slightly north of the existing
antenna. The Planning Board held a public hearing on the matter
with the applicant speaking in favor and no one opposed. The
Planning Board recommends the CUP request with 5 conditions. At
the work session of last week Council agreed that condition one (1)
should be modified to read "The antenna shall not exceed 80 feet in
height. The old antenna shall be removed concurrent with the
erection and operation of the new antenna".
Larson moved to approve the Conditional Use Permit for TCI
Cablevision including the 5 conditions. The motion was seconded.
With a vote the motion carried.
Tennis Courts
Parks Director Mike Baker had additional information concerning
tennis court maintenance and general fiscal information related to
what one might expect in revenue from a major tennis tournament.
Correspondence was also received from FVCC and the Tennis
Association. It appears that the City still has two unresolved
issues related to the tennis court issue, location and the number
of courts to be constructed. Some correlation is that the number
of sites being considered seems to have been narrowed from the
original three to two. Sites being considered include the college
site and the junior high site. Also a decision needs to be made
concerning the number of courts the City will pay to have built, 4
or 8. A third issue unrelated to the major issue is one of
maintenance and ownership once the courts are built.
Moses moved the City to enter into negotiations for 8 tennis courts
on approximately 2 acres at the FVCC site. The motion was
seconded.
There was discussion.
Nystul spoke against the motion.
Lil Laidlaw, Terry Iwerson, Kalispell Tennis Association and Larry
Rasmussen, FVCC, supplied information and answered questions by
Council.
There was lengthy discussion.
Haarr spoke against the motion.
Larson spoke in favor of the motion.
Collins moved to amend the motion to request City staff to prepare
a proposal for Council approval regarding questions of ownership,
maintenance and management of proposed site. The motion died with
lack of a second.
There was more discussion.
Carol Santa, Kalispell Tennis Association, spoke in favor of the
FVCC site.
The motion died due to a tie vote with Nystul, Kennedy, Haarr and.
Granmo voting against.
After more discussion Granmo moved to direct staff to provide
Council with all information available on questions that have been
brought out, from the School District Board and FVCC Board. The
motion was seconded.
The motion carried upon vote.
