Mayor Seeman called upon
Bob Westburg and Ken Higgins.
Bob Westburg,910 S. Lawson,
stated he wished to introduce Western Cable Television Services,Inc.He statedhisdesireis to appear before the Council and request a franchise for cabletelevisionin Apache Junction.
Ken Higgins of Wickenburg
stated from the beginning of the company, Western Cable Television,the desireof the principal people in the company was to appear before the Council and ask
to begin negotiations,if desirable by the Council,to start the long process
of issuing a license to a cable television company. He addressed the types of
programming available through Western Cable Television.
Councilman Eidson stated
he would not support a station that would show naked men and women in bed togetherat 6:00 p.m. on a Sunday evening.
Mr. Higgins stated that
in any cable television system there are,unfortunately,going to be movies like
those referred to by Councilman Eidson,but added there are alternatives.He
stated Councilman Eidson is speaking of one channel,his company offers thirty.
He stated the programming format has been designed so that a person can buy
cable television and not have to receive what Councilman Eidson is referring to.
He stated there is an alternative called Home Theatre Network which shows nothing
but family -type movies.He stated his company does not,and will not, offer
hard-core pornography.He added Christian Broadcasting Network, the Cable News
Network,and Channel 17 from Atlanta were examples of programming offered.
Mayor Seeman recognized
Dan Andrews who wished to address Resolution No.80-10 in regard to the City's
zone of influence.
Dan Andrews, 1975 North
LaBarge Rd.,Apache Junction, stated he is in the zone of influence.He asked
why the public was not told that the City Planning and Zoning Commission would have
to be consulted for their recommendation before any change in zoning or variances
of the zone could be made.He stated the citizens were told by Council that the
reason for creating this zone of influence was so that Mesa and Gilbert could
not annex the area and surround the City of Apache Junction.He asked that
Council reconsider the Resolution creating the zone of influence,and asked that
i t be either eliminated completely or revised to apply only to the originalapplicationofkeepingMesaandGilbertfrom annexing east.
Mayor Seeman stated
the Council fully understood Resolution 80-10 and, if her memory served her correctly,it was a unanimous decision by the Council.She asked the Planning Director to
once again explain the intent of Resolution 80-10.
Planning Director Joe
Gero stated that Resolution 80-10 has no effect on the ability of the City to
make recommendations with regard to proposed special use permits,board actions,
or commission actions,or actions taken by the Board of Supervisors of Pinal
County with regard to any land use matters.He stated the point about zoninginfluencethroughResolution80-10 is really not a valid issue at all.He stated
what Resolution 80-10 does do is tell the various communities that might desire
to annex those portions of land in Pinal County that are in proximity to the City
He stated that subsequently i t regressed to a twelve square mile area,and in
essence his understanding is that i t gives the greatest appearance that even
though he (Mr.Condra)lives outside the City of Apache Junction,the City's
governing area,he is falling under unnecessary,unwanted, and unneeded regulationcontrolsbytheCityand i t is also his understanding that in the past there
have been several individuals in the so-called zone of influence that have had
to come through the City Council in order to get business (building?)permitsforsuchthingsasbeautyparlors,automotive repair installations,and services
of that sort.He stated that i f twelve square miles is all the City could get
in the beginning,and not the 36,why not leave the 36 miles alone and just play
with the 12 square miles.
City Attorney Mike Curtisstatedhebelievedthere was a misunderstanding about what the Resolution does.
In an attempt to clarify Resolution 80-10 City Attorney Mike Curtis asked thefollowingquestionsoftheCityPlanner who responed as indicated:
City Attorney:
City Planner:
City Attorney:
City Planner:
City Attorney:
City Planner:
City Attorney:
City Planner:
"Does the City gain any authority to zone, re -zone,or
not zone the utilization of property by land owners outside
the City?"
"The City does not.As a matter of fact,and I think therecord will be very clear,if Mr.Condra or anybody else
would like to check with Pinal County officials,thereare written communications on each one of the cases, the
beauty shop recently,quite a number of other rezoningsin which people have been invited to come to us because
we have had a written request from Pinal County to make
a recommendation to them.The power or recommendation
is not the power to create an action and the record will
be very clear,Pinal County has more often than not,
gone in a different direction than the recommendation of theCity of Apache Junction or its Planning Commission."
"Mr.Gero, is this whole process similar to the advisoryrolethattheCityplays with respect to liquor licenses?"
"That's correct."
"Non -binding,with simply for information only?"
"Simply for information."
"So there is no real ability to exert any direct ,control,
do anything other than simply give recommendations to an
outside body,namely the counties that have jurisdiction?"
"That's absolutely correct and the record will show that.
As I said,that more often than not the County has chosen
to go opposite the recommendation of the City which clearly
shows that i t is strictly a recommendation; that quite often
you get two or more agencies having different recommendations
to Pinal County or whomever; and maybe in conflict,and they
have to resolve it."
Councilman Shanks commentedthatitis common practice of Pinal County to ask the City for recommendations;
they have done that since the day,the City incorporated so i t is nothing unusual.
She stated i t is a common courtesy as stated by Mr.Gero, and has nothing to dowithResolution80-10.
City Attorney Mike Curtis
suggested that if a legal opinion is apparently going to be required to determine
the effect of the law,his office will get a legal opinion both in-house and
from Pinal County in order to allow the lawyers to find out what the interpretation i
He stated he will be happy to report back to the Council as to the implications,
the zone of influence,and whether or not the City is in any way taking the propertyof,or influencing the property of,people outside the City limits.In response
to Mayor Seeman's request,the City Attorney stated he would make every effort
to produce the opinion within 30 days.
Councilman Shanks statedthat while making the inquiry perhaps all borders should be touched;both counties,
and have them give their opinions of how they interpret it.She stated that when
the information is available she would like the two gentlemen to be notified bymail.
Mayor Seeman stated itemsfour,five,and six have been unanimously postponed until after agenda item 11.

Councilman Eidson pointed
out that he had read in the paper that someone had stated the $700 no -costbuildingpermit would not affect anyone in Apache Junction.He stated he had
spoken with Mr.Frazier who checked into the allegation and found that since
the City is now using a fifty percent modifier which,in effect,means that any
application made for a building permit for a project of $1400 or less there is
no cost on the building permit.He stated that about twenty permits a monthrightnow are being affected by this so some people have been helped.He stated
another point brought up by Mr.Frazier is that in one month there were aboutsixhousefireswithintheCitylimits which sometimes presents a problem because
the insurance does not fully pay for the damage done and also the individual
involved might have to get his plans drawn up and approved before he can get abuildingpermittorepair whatever might have been damaged.
Councilman Eidson MOVED
THAT BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF APACHE JUNCTION

and the Council takes action on the street names the street name signs will be
ordered and attached to the posts.He stated work is starting in the northeastquadrant and then working the southeast,and northwest,and the southwest.He
