tised, a public hearing was held.
Proponents:
Cynthia Peterson stated she would like to receive a City license for a family
day care center.
City-County Planning Board recommends approval.
Received a statement from Cynthia Peterson regarding her home occupation as
follows:
page 2 Minutes of the City Council of Laurel
l) I will not provide care for retarded or disabled adults in my home.
2) I will not open a day care center in my home.
3) I will not open a group family home day care in my home.
4) I will not care for more than 5 children in my home excluding my own children.
5) My hours will be weekdays 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Received other letters in favor of the Special Review and allowing a home occupa-
tion.
Opponents:
Pamela Steiner presented a list of protestors against the Special Review.
Lee A. Friedt spoke against the day care.
Kevin O'Connell also apoke against it because of all the traffic.
Proponents:
Duane Swe~ker spoke in favor of the day care because he also runs a business
out of his home and has two foster children and could have five.
Vance Stevens spoke in favor of the day care.
Mike Rollison also ~poke in favor.
Cai Cumin The petition that she's filed, notarized ~statement, how many kids is
it?
Don Hackmann Five - will not care for more than five excluding my own children.
Cal Cumin So it's 7.
Cynthia Peterson It's 6. I have to be licensed for that extra child when my
other daughter is not home.
Cai Cumin Under Laurel's laws, regardless of all the other bureaucrats that
are involved in this thing, Laurel's laws say that if you have 6 or fewer kids
you have a day care center and you don't have to go before the Council for a
Special Review or anything else. The issue before you tonight requests for a
home occupation license, that's all. The reason it got to the Special Review
stage is because three months ago when it started there was corfusion as to how
many kids (there were rumors going around that there were going to be adults
there and all kinds of health problems) and so it was processed through the
system. The Planning Board, the Council, the Public hearings, advertisements
in the paper as a Special Review~ which means 7 kids or more, up to 13 (adults
and everything else). What she is applying for is not required. That was
clarified at the last Planning Board meeting and that's what our Planning Board
voted on was that she was going to have less than the required number for a
Special Review. So what you have here before you is just a continuation of a
process that should not have got started. The only issue you have is granting
of a business license which does not require a Special Review, Public hearing
or anything else~ so ~he's been through the mill.
Peg Kamerzel stated that Cynthia Peterson paid $10.00 for a fire inspection
three months ago.
Pam Steiner asked for a copy of the notarized statement. Pam also asked the
number of children excluding her own. It will be 5~ Pam also asked how many
children after school closes until the hour of 6:00 p.m. It will be 6.
Motion by Alderman. Carter to close the public hearing, seconded by Alderman
Meyers. Motion carried, 7--0.

license upon her notarized statement, pending the fire inspection, seconded by
Alderman Dickerson. Motion Carried 6~-1 with Alderman Gauthier voting, "NO."
PUBLIC HEARING - TWO-HOUR PARKING: This being the time and place advertised, a
public hearing was held.
Darrell L. McGillen was excused from the Council table to be in the audience.
Marvin Carter stated the Parking Committee met and set up a two-hour parking
zone and a two-hour parking district. The two-hour parking district has been
in effect for approximately a month and a half or two months. There has been
some petitions come in to the Council in regards to the two-hour parking district.
These people have petitioned against the district. Before that petition was
presented to the Council, the Parking Committee had met and made some recommen-
da6ions of rearranging the two-hour parking district. The Council, at that
meeting~ refused or said that they would like to hold and refer back to the
committee the names on the petition, and asked that a public hearing be held
t°nigh~ .
L.y.nn...D.unih.op I live in the apartments above Coast to Coast. I got the petition
together and we had 57.people on it and there are 13 peopke that live in that
building alone that have no place to park. We either get towed off or get $5
parking tickets. The landlord toils us to park clear in behind Thriftways, but
he parks right in behind Herman Law Offices and he doesn't have to walk. We
have to go out and move our cars every two hours. The lot Was changed to two
hours also and it's never full. All of these people that live up here in these
apartments, where are we supposed to park?
Margaret Snow I also live in the ~artments above Coast to Coast. There is no
place to pa'rk.
Edna Cherr.y I live above the Flower Shoppe and I have no place to park either.
Loren Brockenhurst I'm from Forsyth. I live above Coast to Coast. If I would
park my ear in the lot overnight and it gets cold and I can't start it the next
day, what will happen to me then?
Sherri McNeiley I worm for the Power Company. I think you should take down
your two-hour parking. I don't think it has helped the businesses the way it
was supposed to.
Betty Strever I really don't see a purpose in a two-hour parking lot in a town
the size of Laurel. The lot has to be costing the City of Laurel. I'm sure the
man that marks the tires is just not donating time.
Darrell Lee McGillen Owner of the Palace Bar & Lanes. I'm speaking of the
bowling alley more so than the bar business, to explain to the public and the
Council my unique situation. In the bowling industry I promote people to come
in and form leagues. For most people who have not bowled before, it takes an
average of 2½ to 3 hours to bowl 3 lines. What is bad is when my patrons go
to leave and they have a yellow ticket on their windshield.
Gary Temple I'm the manager from Security Federal Savings & Loan and I'm with
the Chamber as well. The comments that we have on it are: 1) There is no
parking restrictions from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 a~m. in the morning, and 2) We look
at it as far as the central business paying for the taxes on the (we're talking
again about the two-hour parking on the lot) that shouldn't be used for tenant
use. We figured after talking with Dean from Coast to Coast that his 12 tenants
could take up 18 spots in the lot. There are about 39 spots. The tenants are
going to be downtown because the rent is going to be lower and they should figure
something out. The two-hour parking has been in effect for only two months.
paget MinUtes of the City Council of Laurel
Give it a chance. We do need the two-hour parking. It is working. As far as
the Chamber is concerned, we're willing to work out some things. But as far as
abolishing it, I think that's a serious mistake
Ke~ Harris I'm with Yellowstone Bank. I don't feel that the City should provide
parking for employees and tenants even if only 10% of the time they are going to
force a customer out of the way. That, in my opinion, is enough for the City to
support the downtown, to support the customer.
Albert Ehrlick It's too bad Jim Kaercher left already. Jim parked in the City
lot, was at a meeting here at City Hall, he received a ticket. That's part of
the City.
Kent Harris If he's parked in the two-hour district, he should get a ticket.
Don Meyers After all this t~o-hour parking~ you still have your problem with
your downtown businessmen parkin~ in front of their businesses. I still feel
that was the biggest problem you ever had.
Kent Harris Employees and tenants were always our biggest problem.
Gary Temp. le When we asked them to come to Parking Committee meetings and give
suggestions, the town criers~ as they were in the paper~ were not there.
Chuck Dickerson I used to work for the City and we had a water leak at the
standpipe. It took three.days to find out who owned cars in the lot. The
distance people have to walk to work in Laurel is nothing compared to Billings.
Lynn Dunihoe asked if there were spots for ali City employees. Where do they
park?
Betty Strever Chuck, aren't we talking a little bit different situation?
Billings is larger.
Chris Anderson stated she has a friend who lives above Price Pharmacy and for
the past two months that lot has been practically empty.
Joe Bradley Not speaking as the City Attorney, I'm speaking as the man who got
two parking tickets. I believe that adding the lot to the two-hour parking
district was a little bit over reached and if you remember, at the time that
this problem first came tO the floor, our officer wasn't walking the parking
district, he was spending most of his.time on dogs. Since enforcement has been
the key, you can find a parking spot almost any time of the day on 1st Avenue.
The enforcement solved 95% of your problem. But, on the other hand, the City
is not in the business of subsidizing private property owners like the owners of
downtown apartments. We can not and should not give them a private parking lot.
So perhaps the Council could consider some kind of lease arrangement in that
City lot. Get some money out of it and benefit from the lot.
The same goes with the bowling alley. We can't just provide one business owner
subsidized parking, but you can change it from two hours to three hours if you
want. I think you should consider all that. I would like to see the Council
consider either lengthening the time in the City lot because it just hasn't been
used and there is plenty of parking on City streets now. Also, I don't think we
should put the burden on the private property owners down 2nd Street there that
come forward and complain. I would be a little mad if someone was parked in
front of my place all the time and I couldn't park there. I think the City
should provide its own employees parking. That's a City lot and a part of it
should be used for the employees who work downstairs and the library employees
a place to park. You should not force your own employees to park on the street.
page S Minutes of the City Council of Laurel
Chuck Dickerson Joe, don't you agree that before thus went into effect t~e lot
was full 90% of the time?
Joe Bradley No, I would have to say less. You could find a spot any time.
Don Meyers Joe, if we took that lot over there, I think you had a good idea
about selling the parking spaces by the month, I've talked to people who work
downtown that would gladly pay to park their car over there.
Joe Bradley Another option- the spaces are awful wide. You could narrow them
up and create a few more spaces. If you set aside a portion for your City
employees(we were estimating it one day.and we would need 7 or 8 counting the
library employees) and leave a portion at two hours. Lease a portion, because
you've got a lot of room over there.
Gary Temple I'd like to comment on several things: 1) Previously we have
already approached the.issue of parking spaces for City employees, 2) I'm not
going to go into the habitual offenders. You can go downtown and still see
them, but they are being watched, and 3) the petition that was presented I
don't feel was valid.
Kent Harris I feel because the lot is empty does not mean it's not working.
I feel the public is not aware that it's open. The Christmas season is coming
and it will probably be full. Darrell L. McGillen has a unique problem and it
should be addressed immediately.
Bob Gauthier It's becoming very costly to enforce this. The cost to the City
has become g burden. When the lot is only being used 10%--20% of the time, a
leasing arrangement does not seem too unfavorable to me.
Gary Temple You're implying to one or two issues. The inevitable is parking
meters. I can speak for the Chamber. We don't want them. The other problem
of leasing I don't know. We haven't given it a chance yet.
Lonnie Kellogg stated the idea of hiring a clerk was brought up before the
parking situation came up. When Lud was hired it was to be part time. I feel
he puts in more hours than necessary. Lud spends about 2 hours on dogs and ~
hours on parking.
Rob Harris I would like to see the recommendations that came up here tonight
ge back to the Parking Committee for further study.
Gary Temple Is there a way of modifying this without losing the two-hour
parking we have already?
Joe Bradley You can change one street, half a street or you can go from two
hours to three hours on one block. You can do anything you want.
Bill Brennan stated he feels the two-hour street parking is working great. As far
as the City lot it was always full. Some cars set in there for up to six months.
I would be in favor of leasing some spaces in the parking lot.
Joe Bradley The enforcement of the parking has been working but we have a lot
of tickets issued and the major portion have not been responding to them. There
is enough work involved that for next years budget a clerk or part-time secretary
will have to be hired.
Ke~ Harris I feel leasing some of the spots is a good idea but I!m asking the
Council to please give it a six-month trial. I don~t feel it's fair to cater to
City employees and let them walk one block to work.
Joe Bradley It's nice to have the input from the business community and you
represent them, but you also represent everybody. But from your point of view,
you don't just write laws for customers benefits, you also represent employees.
page 6 Minutes of the City Council of Laurel
You can't discriminate between the different classes. Businesses can but not
government.
Gary Temple We're not asking you to discriminate, we're asking you to use some
common sense.
Chuck Dickerson Perhaps if a clerk was obtained for three days a week, half
days, to follow up on these notices, the revenue that would be generated by
these tickets being followed up on would more than pay for that person's salary.
It's just a matter of sitting down and creating a system that's feasible with
the parking situation, the police department, the City Attorney and City Judge
to create this revenue and follow up on some of the revenue that we're losing
now because of the work load that is already made on it.
Darrell L. McGillen Mr. Carter, am I correct~ the way the parking ordinance
reads on the book now is two hours of consecutive parking?
Don Meyers Accumulated.
Darrell L. McGillen As you are well aware of my business is under construction.
The contractors may leave and come back three or four times a day. They have
been getting tickets for a¢cumuiative parking. Where do they park? They need
to get in their vehicles.
Chuck Dickerson That problem was brought up in the Police Committee meeting.
Perhaps it will be answered by an ordinance for that particular situation any-
where in the City limits, especially the Central Business District.
Darrell L. McGillen Back to the two hours of accumulative parking. Aren't you
chasing the customer out of downtown Laurel?
Chuck Dickerson That's true.
Larry Herman When it says accumulative parking it has to be in the same general
area. By that I mean if a person parks in front of J. C. Penneys and then moves
to Ben Franklin, a ticket should not be issued. It will not get by me.
Edna Cherry asked about people receiving tickets by Community Hope. That also
is two-hour parking zone.
Margaret Snow I'm here tonight because I'm a taxpayer as well as an employee
of one of the local businesses. We are only here for suggestions, if you can
come up with something, we don't want to take from anybody. But we do have a
problem.
Betty Strever suggested that the Street or Parking Committee go back to their
committees with an open mind.
Marvin Carter 1) Complimented the officer for the work he's done, and 2) Com-
plimented Lynn for going through the process that you went through to present
it to the Council, getting the petition, having the petition signed. Marv
stated the lot behind Thriftways is open, has been open. The south side of
Main Street all the way down is open from 1st Avenue down West Main.
Motion by Alderman Carter to close the public hearing, seconded by Alderman
Dickerson. Motion carried 7--0.
COMMITTEE REPORTS:
--Parking Committee minutes of October 23, 1984, were presented and reviewed.
Motion by Alderman Carter to approve and enter into the record the Parking
Committee minutes of October 23, 1984, seconded by Alderman Dickerson. Motion
carried 7--0.
page 7 MinUtes of the City Council of Laurel
Motion by Alderman Dickerson to accept the Parking Committee's recommen-
dation to defer any kind of action until it's been in effect for six months,
also recommend the Parking Committee have a meeting where the Police Committee
could sit in with it, on Mr. McGillen's situation, seconded by Alderman Meyers.
Discussion on the tenants' parking, Darrell's problem at the Palace and two-
hour parking.
Chuck withdrew his motion. Don withdrew his second to the motion.
Motion by Alderman Dickerson that the Street & Alley Committee, the Parking
Committee and the Police Committee meet sometime this month at the discretion
of Mary Carter to d±scuss the situation at hand, and present it to the Council
the first meeting in December, secon~ed by Alderman Meyers. Motion carried
6--1 with Alderman Gauthier voting, "NO."
Alderman Carter stated the meeting will be Wednesday, November 28th at 7:00
p.m., at City Hall.
Ten minutes recess at this time.
CHANGE ORDER & FINAL ESTIMATE ON SID #108: Chuck Dickerson stated there was a
Street & Alley Committee meeting on October 18th and Jim Worthington appeared
and requested an OKay on the change order on SID #108 in the amount of $7,950.
He said the change orders were asked for by Larry Peterson before he left.
The committee decided to go along with the change order for payment at this
time, but we will not accept the street job as it is.
Larry Herman Realizing there is a bond posted on this job and there's a
warranty or guarantee for one year from Larry's acceptance, for the City.
Now what I suggest the City do and I'd like this for my protection as well
as Jim Worthington's protection to write a letter to the contractor as to what
these problem areas might be.
Chuck Dickerson Jim said that he was going to take care of that and be sure
to oversee fixing the bad spots.
Larry Herman Darlene Steinmetz has a little area that's sinking. It's not
too bad now but it could possibly in the spring get worse. You wouldn't dare
do anything now until that has settled with the winter snows on there. In
that letter that goes to the contractor, it will be pointed out that should be
taken care of in the spring. Just for her protection and so the warranty
doesn't run out, the City address that in the letter to the contractor. With
that I think we've got some protection. Also, we're dealing with a fairly
reputable contractor, Barry O'Leary, ho's not going to let his bond go out
because if he ioses that bond he'll never get another one in the State.
Chuck Dickerson Larry~ as I was going to finish reading, it tends to oversee
fixing the bad spots and.see that two more checks are made: 1) One in the spring,
and 2) one before final approvement of the street. And Mel has gone on record
as saying that he feels the whole street should be done over.
Darlene Steinmetz Sir~ I live on that street and I agree with Mel Krug, that is
one poor job!
Albert Ehrlick That's what you.get when you have a contractor. I don't care
what anybody says, anytime we have a contractor within the City, we have problems.
The letter should be written to the contractor from the Chairman of the Street
& Alley Committee.
Motion by Alderman Dickerson to approve the change order in the amount of
$7,950, seconded by Alderman Kellogg. Motion carried 6--1 with Alderman Gauthier
voting, "NO."

RESOLUTiO~ T~ ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH BOOK PUBLISHING COMPANY: This item was
put on the November 20th agenda.
PEG KAMERZEL - SALE OF GARBAGE CONTAINERS TO BE INCLUDED ON BUILDING PERMIT: An
ordinance will be proposed for getting this on the building permit. One other
item, a home on West Beartooth has received a 90-gal. garbage container and was
never charged for it. This goes back 5 months and I'm wondering if we can still
try to collect it.
Don Meyers stated bill him. If he doesn't pay we'll collect the can.
Peg Kamerzel When Black and Blue Trucking, out of Billings, hauled garbage from
Park City Mercantile to our landfill (again Larry Peterson gave the permission
to do) that bill is now two months past due. Can I turn that over to you~ Joe?
The answer was yes.

Alderman Kellogg brought up a problem that involves the Utilities Committee.
Three water breaks have occurred on Elm Avenue over the weekend. The proposal
is to replace one block - 420 feet. of that street. Our current ordinance
requires that we backfill the utility lines with 3/6 inch road mix. This is
very costly to the City. It runs around $5.00 a yard.
Ernie Davis, the new Maintenance Director, presented a cost estimate of what it
would run.
Motion by.Alderman Carter to waive the'Ordinance #680 regarding backfilling
of street and alley cuts due to an emergency, seconded by Alderman Meyers. Motion
