The City Attorney requested that the Councilmen state their reasons for voting as they did. Councilman Pinkley said that the easy way would have been to wait and hear this application after the election, but the parties involved assured the Council that they had enough time to prepare their presentations. He said he would vote in favor of this application because he believed in the free enterprise system and anything that went in there would . Conditional'Use cause an increase in traffic anyway. He also said he did not Permit C-2-68 believe he had the moral right to limit anyone from going - Metro California into business if it,was in the proper zone. :Councilman Barck Business said that it did not matter that there is an election coming Enterprises up. He -said there were two things important to this matter: Continued Whether or not there will be any substantial effect on sur- rounding property values, and he did not think there would be a result of .lowering property values. He said the second thing is the right of the property owner, and it has nothing to do with the people who are going to put it to use or people who might be in a similar business nearby, and a matter of overriding importance is the right of the property owner, and for those reasons, he was going to vote in favor of the appli- cation. Councilman Wilson said that he was for free enter- prise the same as Councilmen Pinkley and Barck, but he did not think this was the proper place for the car wash. Council- man Tucker said that the real issue was whether the car wash should go on this particular, property. He said one should think of free enterprise and at the same time think of the following three criteria, not listed in the order of impor- tance: 1. How does a decision affect the City of Costa Mesa as a whole? 2. How does the decision affect the immediate community surrounding that property? 3. How does the deci- sion affect the individual property owner? Councilman Tucker said that in this decision he did not think it would greatly affect the City of Costa Mesa in its entirety regardless which way the decision went. He said that this is a Cl piece of property and this is a C2 use, and if it were entirely com- mercial area surrounding it, he would not be against a C2 use in a Cl zone, but since it was not the case, he felt it would affect them. Councilman Tucker also said that the main issue was, should the car wash come to Costa Mesa on this piece of ground, and he would prefer to see it come to Costa Mesa in a C2 zone. Mayor Jordan said that -the real issue is whether or not to put a car.wash on this property; it must meet certain criteria established by the ordinance. It must be compatible' with the -area, there must be similar uses in the area, it must not be detrimental to the property values; there is a church across the street and the noise factor must be considered. After discussion was completed, the Council denied the permit and found that the four criteria of the ordinance had not been met, on motion by Councilman Wilson, seconded by Councilman Tucker, and carried by the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmen: Wilson, Tucker, Jordan NOES: Councilmen: Pinkley, Barck ABSENT: Councilmen: None Oral Communications There were no oral communications.
