CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - July 17, 1974 ITEMS REMOVED FROM CONSENT CALENDAR FOR SEPARATE CONSIDERATION: 1. Approval of Minutes - July 3, 1974 Councilwoman Miller stated that on page 10, Item 2, the Resolution she was asked to prepare concerned not Moody Canyon, but other zoning changes within the Town's Sphere of Influence, and that the Resolution should be directed to the County Planning Commission. MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Councilman Heigesson moved, seconded by Council- woman Miller and unanimously carried to approve the Minutes of July 3rd as corrected. C. SPECIAL REPORTS: 1. Reports of Standing Committees: (out of order as they appear on Agenda) b) Town Historian - Mrs. Florence Fava: Reminded Council that the Town had been recognized as a bi-centennial city, and that plans were underway to prepare for the Country's bi- centennial celebration, but she had no place to set up an exhibit. She wondered if she would be able to use the Engineer's shack once it is vacated by the Town Engineer. She said if Council gave its approval she would then have a place to display historical artifacts on a permanent basis, where Townspeople and school groups could visit any time they wished. Mayor Grabowski commented that there was na a plan to use a portion of the building for the Town's maintenance crew because of their cramped quarters, which would take up a portion of the room. He asked if Mrs. Fava could give Council some time to consider her suggestion, and asked that her requirements be put in writing for discussion at the meeting of August 21st. Councilman McReynolds said that he thought the Engineer's office would be a good place for the Town Historian's display and that the Town would be showing a genuine interest in the history of their own Town if this gesture was made. Councilwoman Hiller suggested that Mrs. Fava give Council several weeks to come up with a solution based on the present evaluation of the Maintenance Department and other considerations. The matter was scheduled for consideration at the meeting of August 21st. Speakinq frog the Floor: Mrs. M. Saviano, Corte Madera Ct.: Supported Mrs. Fava's request.
