CALL TO PUBLIC Chairman Harris opened the Call to the Public. Ruth Pinky, owner of one of the commercial lots, addressed the Commission. Ms. Pinky explains that she has not actually formulated her question, but this sparked it. The Commission mentions the possibility of these many commercial lots rolling over to residential. What is my state as far as owning as commercial as this vision of yours happens. In other words, would I convert it to residential or would I sell it as commercial and leave it up to the new possessor to convert it? Chairman Harris stated that we as the Commission cannot respond; however, staff might be able to speak on that behalf. Kelly Garry, City Attorney, stated that Mr. Schmeling cannot speak now because in Call to the Public we cannot respond to questions, because its not on the agenda so they cannot discuss this as business before the Board. Mr. Schmeling can talk to you once we adjourn the meeting.
