City Council Minutes January 18, 2011 Page 9 wanted Wapiti gone, it was the owners of Wapiti because they expected to be developing the property or selling it during the interim use period. Councilmember Motin stated the 10 year period is complete. He stated Wapiti Park built the building on the assurance that they could have it for ten years so the city gave it to them. He stated if Wapiti Park wanted to do another Interim Use Permit, which it did, it doesn't mean the city can't impose conditions. He stated they have ignored the conditions and he has no problem ending the Permit under these circumstances. He stated Wapiti Park has been disregarding conditions since 1984. Councilmember Zerwas concurred regarding the ending of the Interim Use Permit because clearly no progress has been made since August and no progress seems to be in sight. Mayor Dietz stated he would be more comfortable with allowing the city attorney to research the comments made tonight. Wapiti's attorney agreed to provide the supporting law that he relied upon to make his statements tonight and also provide his statement.
