City Council Meeting September 16, 1996 Page 12 Mayor Duitsman indicated that he would support moving the recycling to a C3 zoning rather than moving the used car sales lot to an I-2 zoning. Councilmember Holmgren felt that the recycling was possibly put in the wrong zone and should be moved to C3. It was the consensus of the City Council to request the Planning Commission to look at the conditional uses allowed in the C3 zone to determine whether the recycling center would be appropriate for the C3 zone. COUNCILMEMBER HOLMGREN MOVED TO INITIATE A ZONING REQUEST FOR C3 AND LAND USE PLAN CHANGE. COUNCILMEMBER SCHEEL SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED 3-1. Councilmember Dietz opposed. 6.13. 6.14.
