CLARIFICATION OF PUBLIC STATEMENT
Upon motion of Councilman Arnold, seconded by Councilman McCarney
and unanimously carried, the City Manager was ordered to make an
official statement to the local paper clarifying the statement
made at the recent City Council meeting in relation to the stated
number of public hearings which had been conducted on the City's
new zoning ordinance at which time the cemetery clause was in-
cluded within the :proposed ordinance. The statement that had
been made at the public Council meeting of July 14, 1958, in-
dicating that there had been three public hearings held on said
zoning ordinance at which time the cemetery clause was included
in said ordinance, was definitely established at this time to
have been an incorrect statement and that, in reality there had
been but two (2) public hearings held upon said ordinance at
which time the cemetery section was included by the City Council
and Planning Commission, respectively. The error was due to a
spur-of-the-moment guess and was completely unintentional.
