STORAGE OF HAZARDOUS Mr. Bishop said, a while back I made a motion MATERIAL that we look into storing hazardous material in the City. How are we coming on that? City Manager replied, we have discussed it. We would like to sit down with a committee of I Council and pursue it further. Mr. Bishop replied, I would like to see us go further with it. Could we put a suspenS10n on any new hazardous material storage until we can study it? City Attorney said, any existing storage will be grandfathered in. But it would preclude and prevent future development of such a nature. Mr. Bishop said, we just want to suspend it until we can review it and come up with some guidelines. City Attorney replied, you will have to have an ordinance. Mr. Hunt said he would like to support Mr. Bishop. Mr. moved to temporarily suspend any Bishop new storage of hazardous material in the City until we can review it. Motion was seconded by Mr. Hunt.
