City Attorney Taylor strongly recommended that Council make the building
permit allocations for 1979 as authorized under Proposition "R." and Ord-
inance No. 1680.
He explained that following notification of overcrowding in one or more
attendance areas by the School Board, the City may not grant permits for
residences unless the City adopts an ordinance providing fees and/or land
for school capital improvement, or that the City determines that over-
riding factors justify permits. Mr. Taylor also presented a chart of
five alternatives available to the Council with the probable effects of
each.
Councilman Knudsen expressed concern that a moratorium would affect every
homebuilder; and that if Council concurs that overcrowding doer indeed
exist, Council may not issue a building permit unless it has adopted an
ordinance.
Following a brief resume of the figures discussed .in the meeting of
October 26 , 1979, Councilman Knudsen made the following :motion:

approve, the fees would be returned to the developers; in the E
