Responding to Mr. Munkel, Mr. Williams responded that the building is not going to be all a laundromat. The Laundromat is only going to be a portion of the building. Mr. Wagner said that the trial period from 1992 was not to be construed as a threat, but as an incentive to properly police the area and keep the loitering down. Mr. Williams said that they will comply with the terms of the 1992 agreement. The Mayor entertained a motion with conditions, excluding the walkway, the benches, which will require they follow the most restrictive ordinance on screened video games, which will require them to follow the hours of operation in the current ordinance - noting that an amended ordinance has been requested. Mr. Williams asked for clarification on the hours of operation. Mayor Adams said that they have to follow the current ordinance; however, the Council has requested an amendment to that ordinance that will allow the Council the authority to make exceptions to extend the hours of operation. The applicant will be able to come back before Council, without prejudice, and ask for an exception to the hours of operation. Mr. Williams said that they can't afford to build the building without the twenty four hour operation. Mayor Adams said that Council can not permit this to happen, because they do not have the legal authority to allow it. He apologized for the inconvenience, but this process must be dealt with in this manner. Responding to Ms. Welsch, Mr. Ollendorff responded that it would probably take about three meetings to go through this process. He also added that the applicant has been very aware of the need to go through this process for many months. This is nothing new to them. Mr. Lieberman moved approval. Mr. Munkel seconded the motion. Ms. Welsch asked for further clarification on the motion. The Mayor said that the Council is approving the site plan with those conditions that the Council agreed with and lined out the conditions that the Council did not agree with. We also added that we would follow the current ordinance as it provides. The motion to approve carried unanimously.
