The council had two public hearings scheduled, but both were postponed.<br \/>\nThe council paused for a moment to remember former councilman Tim Lee, who died recently. Several council members, City Attorney John Hessel, and Mayor Timothy Lowery all spoke of their admiration for Lee. Several recalled how helpful he was when they started on the council. Several also knew him from other activities, such as Old Town Partners and other groups.<br \/>\nLowery noted that Lee was helpful to him even after he left the council. He said he could always count on him.<br \/>\nThe first public hearing was about a request to approve a final subdivision plat of lot 12 of St. Ferdinand Commone for the property at 3200 N. Hwy 67. This property is located on the south side of Lindbergh Boulevard just east of Walmart.<br \/>\nThe hearing was postponed.

It was about a request to rezone the property from B-3 \u201cExtensive Business District\u201d to B-5 \u201cPlanned Commercial District to allow for a credit union with attached drive-thru.<br \/>\nThis hearing was also postponed.

Hwy 67.<br \/>\n\u2022 Postponed action on a request for a full liquor by the drink license for Plush Lounge located at 12667 New Halls Ferry Road.
