482 Mr. Schilling asked on what basis will space be reallocated, and if it will be done on a proportionate space based on inside space. Mr. Tolbert said it would not be done based on indoor space. He said if Council is not comfortable with reallocating space, this section could be struck. Mr. Caravati said we should think about assigning of space. He said if the "pioneering" cafes are sold, they would no longer be pioneering businesses. Mr. Lynch said he thinks the issue would be moot if we charged more for rent. Ms. Hamilton said the reallocation issue needs more discussion, but she is okay with the rest of the ordinance. Dr. Brown said he is reluctant to take away space, but feels that space could be reallocated if a business is sold and someone comes in and wants space. Mr. Tolbert said the ordinance could be amended on second reading by changing the reallocation of space section and increasing rent for cafes. On motion by Ms. Hamilton, seconded by Mr. Caravati, the ordinance entitled "AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND CHAPTER 28 OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE (1990), AS AMENDED, TO REVISE REGULATIONS APPLICABLE TO STREET VENDORS AND THE OPERATION OF OUTDOOR CAFES" was offered and carried over to the next meeting for consideration. Council requested that a public hearing be held at the next meeting on the proposal to increase caf~ rents. ORDINANCE: REZONING 625 MONTICELLO ROAD AND 709 SONOMA STREET FROM R-1S TO B-1 Mr. Brian Haluska, Planner in Neighborhood Development Services, said that the applicant has removed the request to rezone 702 Sonoma Street, her residence, from the application. He said the owner has also verbally guaranteed that she will not demolish any of the structures as long as they are part of the business. Mr. Caravati said he is more satisfied with this proposal. Ms. Hamilton said she was not able to visit the neighbors about this proposal, but will do so prior to the second reading. On motion by Mr. Lynch, seconded by Ms. Hamilton, the ordinance entitled "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING AND REENACTING THE ZONING DISTRICT MAP INCORPORATED IN SECTION 34-1 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE, 1990, AS AMENDED, BY TH4E REZONING OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 709 SONOMA STREET AND 625 MONTICELLO ROAD FROM R-1S RESIDENTIAL TO B-i" was offered and carried over to the next meeting for consideration.
