Council Minutes of 6/3/97 f, that this project can and should provide if managed properly. With the money received '~~,,, from the monopole, improvements to our recreation and our economic development can be funded without further burdening our taxpayers. He does give credit to those who have looked at both sides and have the conviction to vote no. The most important question is: is this the very best the Mayor and his administration can arrange for this city? They have answered yes. Residents who disagree should make their feelings known to the administration. Roll call continued: Saringer, no; O'Grady, yes, with comment. Mr. O'Grady said that, as a municipal entity, we are not allowed to prohibit these towers. Further, we cannot give the appearance that we are prohibiting these towers by being overly restrictive. He can relate to Mr. Lehmann's comments. He does not like the idea of putting a telecommunications tower in the park. However, if the city were to vote no, then we would lose some of the control that we have. We would lose some of the ability to regulate. This tower can end up right down the street in a far more obvious position, and in an area that is far closer to the residents' homes. Tt could indeed be placed in the position where it causes significantly greater visual impact. He has checked other locations that were suggested, and this area would have the least amount of negative impact that he can see. The motion passed with four affirmative votes and two negative votes.
