5, Public Comment -
. Tina Friesz, Thurston County read from Section 5.02 of the YMC for operating
L&M Burger Wagon under a Peddler's license, She believes that they were issued
the license and were therefore able to operate and be in compliance with the code
as it is described, but are now being unfairly told they can not operate as they
understood, Discussion included several specific points from the code and their.
misunderstanding of the pre-submission meeting information provided by the
Community Development Department.
Both Tami Merriman and Grant Beck responded that in order to issue the Peddlers
License, L&M Burger Wagon would have to also meet the conditions described in
the pre-submission meeting to allow this type of business to operate in. the city
limits of Yelm, The intent was to allow L&M to move from spot to spot during the
day, not to 'set up in one location to attract customers traveling by. Without meeting
the conditions of the pre-sub as attached to the Peddler's license, the Zoning Code
would not allow the operation of this type of business,
After a lengthy discussion between all parties, Brent Dille, City Attorney,
responded thatthis matter should be handled at the staff level, and firmed up with
the Mayor and Council at a future study session" . '
Mayor Harding asked L&M for time for the city to revisit this topic before they set
up for business in places other than where previously described,
Chris Maun, Nisqually River Council (NRC) presented the City of Yelm with
Thank-You boards from the students involved with the NRC in thanks for the City's
support of the ongoing projects for studying and preservation of all water
resources.
