Summary

Nathan Nicholson told the council he is tracking activities at 318 Hammer Road, said he has legal counsel and will observe operations before taking further action; planning commission members also raised a miscommunication about rezoning referral procedures.

Resident Nathan Nicholson addressed the council during public comment to say he is monitoring operations at 318 Hammer Road and has sought legal counsel to watch how the business operates.

“I've got a little bit of legal counsel and we're going to watch this play out ... I want to know 318 Hammer Road. I want to know everything there is to know about that from cradle to grave,” Nicholson said, adding he did not want council members to take his inquiries personally and that he intended to observe the site over time.

Council member Ivon raised a related procedural question, saying the planning commission had expected the matter to come to council that night. Staff responded that rezoning cannot be voted on by council until the purchaser owns the property and the planning commission refers the matter back to council, identifying a miscommunication between the planning body and the applicant.

Mayor Tony Craig and other council members acknowledged Nicholson’s remarks. The transcript records no formal action on the property at the meeting; Nicholson said he will continue to monitor and, if necessary, submit formal requests to staff.
