Deborah Haskins, 420 Eli Street, Chelan WA, said she had purchased two sick kittens from Pat's Best Friends in October 1992. She said Ms. Cole never returned any of her repeated phone calls regarding the animals and she was against the issuance of a business license for Ms. Cole's new business even if Ms. Cole met the Humane Society's conditions. Courtney Prather, 95 Eastmont, Avenue, said she was a former employee of Pat's Best Friends and she had witnessed abuse of animals on many occasions. Rachel Cordell, 17 South Lombard Avenue, said she had purchased a dog from Pat's Best Friends in December 1992. Though she was told the dog was healthy, it developed parvo. She said Ms. Cole did not return her repeated phone calls and continued to sell sick animals. Evelyn Brent, 401 South Kentucky Avenue, said her daughter had purchased a dog from Pat's Best Friends which had an eye problem. Her veterinarian said, if untreated, the illness would have resulted in the loss of sight in that eye. Ms. Brent said her own dog had been groomed at Pat's Best Friends for years, however, she suspected abuse and no longer took her dog there. Mayor Collings closed the public portion of the appeals hearing. Councilmember Lacy said he disliked interfering with a person trying to make a living; however, he was strongly influenced by the fact the Humane Society's conditions were not implemented until after the denial of the new business license application. Council Actions A motion was made by Councilmember McArthur, second by Councilmember Hendricks to deny approval of the business license application for Pat's Pic of the Litter Pets. A roll call vote was called fort Councilmember McArthur Yes Councilmember Nash Yes Councilmember Mikow Yes Councilmember Hendricks Yes Councilmember Lacy Yes City Attorney Zimmerman said he would present the written findings of the appeals hearing at the next council meeting. 93-04-05 Chelan and Douglas Counties Comprehensive Solid Waste Management preliminary draft plan Mayor Collings said the Council needed to make a decision on the preliminary draft of the Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan.

EAST WENATCHEE RIVERFRONT TRAIL UPDATE Jennifer Olsen, project coordinator, and Bob Droll, landscape architect, gave an update on the trail project. Ms. Olsen said the trail planning committee had walked the trail and identified areas for review with Mr. Droll. Ms. Olsen said she had met with the Department of Transportation and Dave Jenkins, Four Seasons Inn, regarding the property leases for the trail which must be secured before construction of the trail could begin. Mr. Droll and City Planner Campbell were working on the environmental impact statement. Ms. Olsen said she would be contacting Chief Flinner regarding emergency vehicle access and public safety. Mr. Droll discussed the different areas of potential liability associated with the trail such as the grade on the switchback portion of the trail, boulders, and security. Mr. Droll suggested convex mirrors, video cameras, and lighting as possible security measures, particularly below the Columbia River Bridge. Chief Flinner recommended lighting and police patrols as the most ' valuable means of security. Mountain bikes, trail bikes, and golf carts were suggested as transportation for patrols. jainsvaiy/Xiajo A1To y0jaJlsap g e�TuTbITA •m•d zb'g - LmaHmunorav •uOTsjoaP a Jo; TTounoo 01 1T luasazd pjnoM ags pup slsanbal sTq :(o; uOTlemJOJuT OPTAosd of uopno7 'JH paXse sbuTjToo JOAeH leql buTseaj uT palsaialuT aq Ig6Tm TUN AaTjeA 096 le Awadoad buTleoeA .10 zaPTsuoo 01 TTounoo 9111 PaXse osje TTeg A1To agl g1TM 6uoje Al=adoid sTg aq PTnoM ay pTps aH •TTey AITO luaisno ayl ;O .zaumO a141 sT aq PTes 'SN laaJIS •Aliedoid aq PaPPe aH •ARMXied luamasea ue buTIeOTPap uopnoZ ja •Aliadoad buTITaS uT PalsaialuT 941 buTuTO[pe Aliadoid y151 TITS 'uopnoq aTaaH SSNHHHOJ USH10 •aunr uT uOTluanuoo saT1To uol6uT49eM ;o uOTleToossv Tenuue 9141 ;0 TTounoo papuTma.T sbuTTTOo JOAeH •paseajd A3aA seM poogaogqbTau aql pue laoils gluanajg uo 5uTlg6Tj laails ;o luamaoejd eql zo; A1T3 ay1 PaXuegl '3N laalaS gluanaTg ;o luapTsai a 411aq.Too 11eH PTes s6uTTTop JOAPH 1H0dHH S,HOAVH •aTps Zo; lou seM 6uTPTTnq aql •aagoleuaM uT 6uTPjTnq Avma3es PTO agl 6uTspgoand aq 1ou pjnoM gNIq PTes sXoTJpuaH a agmamTTOunoo •luana agl aleuTPIOOO 01 aOT;;o aagmego aql lopluoo pjnoM sbuTTTOJ soAeH •ape3pd ayl uT aPTJ 01 amOOTaM azaM Aag1 'pojgTmjad aTnpayos aTag1 ;T pTes 'zagmego aagoleuaM Iseg 'saJiaH Tlled •apeied agl uT aledT0T13ed ueder 'eMesTH moi; 1ua6uTluoo 5uT1TsTA ayl palsanbea Aopl *jH •passnosTp ajaM apeaed sTsspyo AsseTo agl .To; sjTelaP pue buTlaam P3eog .agmeyo 99g03euaM lseg agl papualle Peg ay pTes Aae'j iagmamTTounop s3ivadn axv siuoau 'IIoNnoo •gluom auo AjalemTxojddv uT TTounoo of Xopq liodai pjnoM ay Put' aallTMMOD TTE31 ayl pue jTounoo ;o suoTlsabbns aql uo salemTlsa Isoo yoieasas pjnoM ay pies TToia JH •1SOa uT 90uaJa;;TP lueOT;TubTs e aq PTnoM ejagl ssajun uaaouoo a lou sPm TTezl aql ;o ' glpTM aql 1Ta; aq pTes Aoe'T iagmamjTounoo TTejq ylpTM aTgeTJV A e aneq of Tensnun lou seM 1T 6UTPPe 'uOTsToap TTounop a aq PTnOM TTeil aql ;0 141PTM ag1 pTes TTosa 'JH •ssapjnogs too; omq so auo aq pjnoM aouaza;;Tp ayy 'laa; uaal.Tno; aq PTnoM jTe.T1 aql ;o yIPTM TTPJeAO ayl pTes sbuTTTOD JOAeH •ITeJ4 ay1 30 gIPTM aql uo apem uaaq peg uoTsTOap Ave ;T PaXse sXOT.TPuaH jagmamTTounoo
