u/ACTION ON APPEAL OF CH~ VISTA HOSPITAL HELD OVER
It was moved by Councilman Sylvester, seconded by Councilman Anderson,
and carried that the motion to grant the conditional use permit to Bay General
Hospital and deny the appeal of the Chula Vista Community Hospital be removed
from the table.
It was moved by Councilman Anderson, and seconded by Councilman Sylvester,
that any further discussion on the matter be postponed definitely until December
19, 1967, because of the fact the consultant's report has been made available
to the Council which report raises questions concerning parking space require-
ments for hospitals and also that the whole subject matter requires further
study by members of the City staff and individual Council members.
Attorney Paul Pierik, representing the Bay General Hospital~ requested
and demanded that the Council vote on the appeal at this time due to the fact
that they have complied with every legal requirement of the City and that there
is no basis on which further study could prove otherwise.
The motion carried with Councilmen McAllister and Sparling voting no.
Upon the recommendation of the City Attorney, it was moved by Councilman
Sylvester, seconded by Councilman Anderson, and carried that the matter be re-
advertised for hearing on December 19, 1967, at 7:00 P.M., in order that inter-
