CONSENT AGENDA DISCUSSED AND APPROVED:
City Administrator Seth Atkinson had introduced the idea of a consent agenda to the council at an earlier work session. A consent agenda is a meeting practice which packages routine business items and other non-controversial items not requiring discussion or independent action as one agenda item. Mayor Jones requested some clarification on the practices from city attorney, Kasey Wright. Council Member Rowley asked if each item could be summarized on the consent agenda. Mr. Wright said that would be possible, and that any item on the consent agenda could be removed and discussed independently. The minutes were removed from the consent agenda. Council Member Ostler moved to approve the minutes of the council meeting held on March 21, 2017 as written. Council Member Memmott seconded the motion. The motion passed on a unanimous vote.
Council Member Memmott moved to approve the consent agenda which included the sale of one burial right to Brett Larsen and three burial rights to Michael and Piulea Westring in the Vine Bluff Cemetery. The consent agenda also included the approval of a list of claims on the warrant register dated April 4, 2017.
BUSINESS AND BEER LICENSE APPLICATIONS APPROVED WITH CONDITIONS:
Four business license applications and two beer licenses were presented for approval. Council Member Rowley moved to approve business licenses for Jones Homes LLC, Park N Pump Circle C LLC, Paula Nielson Daycare, and Tony’s Tilling. Council Member Memmott seconded the motion. The motion passed with the following vote:
Yea: Greg Rowley
Justin Seely

ORDINANCE 04-04-17 AMENDING THE ZONE MAP ADOPTED:
Council Member Memmott moved to adopt Ordinance 04-04-17, an ordinance changing the zoning on property within Covington Ridge Subdivision Plat E from R1-H to R1, but to not publish the ordinance until public improvements connecting to Covington Ridge Subdivision Plat D are complete. Council Member Park seconded the motion. The voting was unanimous in favor.
ORDINANCE 04-04-17(b) AMENDING THE ZONE MAP ADOPTED:
Council Member Memmott moved to adopt Ordinance 04-04-17(b), an ordinance changing the zoning on a property owned by Joe Humphries approximately 800 North 100 West from R1-8 to R3. Council Member Ostler seconded the motion. The voting was unanimous in favor.
MINUTES AMENDED:
After the adoption of Ordinance 04-04-17(b), the council noticed that the minutes of 3-21-2017, which were approved earlier in the meeting, had incorrectly stated the zone change recommendation by Planning Administrator Glenn Greenhalgh relating to the 800 North 100 West property . Council Member Park moved that the minutes be amended to state the zone change from R1-8 to R3 instead of R1 to R3. Council Member Ostler seconded the motion, which passed on a unanimous vote.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING ADJOURNED INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION:
Council Member Ostler made the motion to adjourn the meeting and reconvene in executive session to discuss personnel matters and property acquisition and disposal.
