Therefore, he was of the opinion that a chiropodist cannot conduct such occupation in the first residential district. Councilman Armstrong moved, seconded by Councilman Granger, that the Clerk be instructed to inform the applicant that -the Council, upon the City Attorney's advice, feels that the application is in violation of the zoning ordinance and is, therefore, denied, and that a copy of the City Attorney's opinion be forwarded with the letter to Mrs. Auerbach. Motion passed unanimously. City Manager Blom presented schedule for relocation of parking meters to conform with , the new requirements on California, Perry Streets and other changes as recommended. A resolution embodying the changes was read and discussed. A suggestion by the City Manager that the parking meters be eliminated from the easterly side of California Street was not looked upon .with favor at this time.. He also suggested certain changes that could be made in the location of two hour meters which was approved. Councilman Armstrong offered resolution changing the location of parking meters as outlined by the City Manager and moved its adoption, seconded by Council- man Werder. On roll call, resolution was unanimously adopted with Councilman Britschgi absent. Councilman Werder believed some effort should be made to check people in regard to putting money in for more than one hour's parking in the same location.
