Mayor Swenson asked if anyone from the public would like to speak on this subject. Becky
Hayes, 950 Evergreen Road, stated that she purchased a condo at Panor 360 in January and
that with the code change she has concerns about her security if something were to happen
to the building and whether or not they would be able to rebuild them. She added that it is
really hard to find a place that you can afford to live as a senior and that the security that she
did have will go away when the use is changed from Permitted Use to Conditional Use. She
requested that they possibly put in an addendum to grandfather in Panor 360, so we can have
a little bit more security and keep it as a Permitted Use. She explained that Panor 360 was
built in 1973 and the original complex wasn't developed until 1978 and that it has gone
through quite a few zone changes. She added that she has no idea what the history is and
why nobody spoke up for it before but she is speaking up now and thinks we need some
security for people like her. Mayor Swenson declared the hearing closed at 8:26 p.m.
