TUESDAY, MAY 28 ,' 19~91 <br />this ordinance shall be in force on and after May 29, 1991. <br /> <br />Council simultaneously conducted two public hearings on requests by the <br />Planning Commission to amend the City's Subdivision Ordinance in its entirety <br />and to amend the City's Zoning Ordinance in its entirety. Mr. George Lester <br />spoke against Section IV, ParagraphF of the proposed Zoning Ordinance, which <br />calls for Planning Commission review of site plans which have a gross <br />building area of greater than 40,000 square feet, stating that he felt this <br />provision would hinder development within the City and that a site plan which <br />met all City regulations should be administratively approved. There being no <br />other public comment, Mayor McClain declared the public hearings closed. <br />Councilman Adams recommended that Council consider appointing a committee <br /> <br />consisting of two Council members to work with the City Administration and <br />membersof the Planning Commission to study these ordinances, or that all <br />members of Council should study the ordinances before considering their <br /> <br />adoption. Councilman Oakes, agreeing with Councilman Adams on the need for <br />further study of the ordinances, made a motion that Council hold a special <br />meeting to study these ordinances. This motion was seconded by Vice-Mayor <br /> <br />Groden and carried by a unanimous vote. Mayor McClain asked Mr. Brown to <br /> <br />schedule a daytime special meeting for this purpose. <br /> <br />Upon motion, duly seconded and by unanimous vote, Council adopted the <br />following Ordinance No. 91-6: <br /> <br />BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Martinsville, <br />Virginia, in regular session assembled May 28, 1991, that it does <br />hereby amend Chapter 12--Motor Vehicles and Traffic, ArticleVI-- <br />State Regulations for Motor Vehicle Operation, Section 12-140-- <br />Adoption of Amendments and Additions to Motor Vehicle Laws by <br />Reference, of the City Code, as follows: <br /> <br />Sec. 12-140. <br /> <br />Adoption of amendments and additions to motor <br />vehicle laws by reference. <br /> <br /> The term "laws of the state relative to the operation of <br />vehicles," used in section 12-2, and the term "laws of the state <br /> <br /> <br />
