Mr. Weeks informed the gentlemen that Mr. Littlefield had been at the meeting earlier and that he is sincere in his intentions. Mr. Weeks expressed regret that the American Legion representatives were not present during Mr. Littlefield's discussion. Mr. Rohr suggested that the Commission and the City officials meet - with 'the Corr�nander from Post 105 and his Committee to discuss this matter. Mr. Weeks stated that the City Council would be receiving the Comnission's recommendations and that any further meetings on ' the matter would be the decision of the Council . Mr. Rohr indicated that the American Legion did not want the tank sold and if the City wanted it off their property the Legion would move it to their building on �1 Camino Real . The option of selling the tank for scrap was discussed, however, the Commission felt it would be better to restore the tank, so that it could be a useful object. The recommendation that the Commission had made earlier in the meeting was reviewed. After considerable discussion, Commissioner Schlesinger suggested ' that an amendment be put to the motion stating that the American Legion would like to meet with the Council before a final decision is made. ' � Mr. Weeks suggested an option: to proceed with the Commission's recom- mendation and transfer.that information along with additional research information and the opinions from the City Attorney's Office to the Council and state the American Legion's desire for further meetings : with the Council and at that time the Council can decide their course of action. This was agreeable to both Mr. Wells and Mr. Rohr. Chair- man Schlesinger thanked Mr. Rohr and Mr. Wells for attending the meeting. REPORTS � REPORT ITEM 1 .
