Minutes -City of San Leandro City Council Meeting dune 7,1999 Page 8 -- Minute Order No. 99-36, Matter or Zoning Requirements for Bars and Liquor Stores. (1156/1099) The City Council, by consensus, supported Council Member Loeftler's request to refer the matter of Zoning requirements for bars and liquor stores to the Planning Commission: (1) To review whether they require a Conditional Use Permit. (2) To review the non-conforming use provisions. (3) To provide provisions that would allow the City to have the most authority to regulate the reuse of bars and liquor stores. No Vote 7. Mayor Young congratulated staff on a very successful Cherry Festival. She further commented on her concerns with the underpass at 105' Avenue on San Leandro Boulevard. She noted there are concerns with the width, pavement, and asphalt. She questioned whether or not the types of trucks that are allowed to pass through there should be regulated. She indicated City Council Member Reid, City of Oakland, has given her a short report concerning some options on how those issues might be handled, such as posting limited speed limits and limiting oil-tanker trucks from coming through there during the day. She will continue to work with Council Member Reid on this issue. The Mayor then discussed a letter hand delivered to the City Clerk, addressed to the City Council and the City Manager from the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce and various Presidents of homeowners' associations and citizen groups. She noted the letter has asked that the City Council direct the City Attorney to draft suitable language which would amend the Charter and call for the election of the City Council and Mayor by a majority rather than plurality of registered voters. The letter requested this issue be placed before the voters of San Leandro for such consideration on the March, 2000, primary ballot.
