18 Councilman Rosselli questioned whether he could participate in the continued public hearing concerning house moving permit inasmuch as he had read all reports and Minutes of the previous public hearing. City Attorney advised the required trans- cript which would have allowed members absent from the previous public hearing to participate, after their review and study of the evidence and transcript, had not been taken, therefore, members absent on August 7th were not eligible to partici- pate in this continued public hearing. Continued Public Hearing, application of Norma Kogelschatz, 1707 Edgewood Road, for permit to move a one-story, wood frame single family dwelling from Lot 6, Block 1 Redwood Villa Park, 18 Center Street, Redwood City, to 649 Douglas Avenue (Lots 1 and 2. Block 1, Dumbarton Acres) declared open. This public hearing continued from August 7th at the request of the Mayor for additional time in which to make another inspection of the premises and obtain further information. Mr. Don Aste, representing applicant at previous public hearing, had indicated his willingness to accept conditions set out by Staff, if permit approved, and also his assurance to Council that applicant would be willing to submit for approval appropriate landscaping, to insure its compatibility with the adjacent area. He reiterated previous statements that property would be landscaped, fenced, new two -car covered area for parking constructed, house to be painted and brick installed across the front, which he felt would insure property being an asset to the community and neighborhood, if permit is granted. In response to questioning as to why dwelling being moved from original site, Mr. Aste advised Council a new build- ing was to be constructed where dwelling is located at the Center and E1 Camino, and area needed for a parking lot. Structure considered too good to bulldoze since it is up to building code. Chief Building Official advised his written report submitted previously had con- tained the conditions he recommended should house moving permit be granted.
