Attorney General for the State of Oregon in which he informed the
Administrator of the OLCC that the city's opposition or outrage
regarding proposed topless or nude entertainment is not legally
relevant to the OLCC's decisions on applications. The Attorney
General stated that it would be an advocation of its policy-making
role if it denied the OLCC license because of adverse public
sentiment. Mr. Leahy stated that it was not stating that there could
be a denial if there were nuisance conditions existing at the
establishment that arose because of the topless dancing.

Ordinance No. 3 received a first reading by title only.
Chief of Police Bill DeForrest presented the staff report. The City
Council has requested the City Code be amended to delete the present

This issue has been under consideration by the City Council since October

proceed with drafting amendments to the City Code that would eliminate the
present requirement to dispose of "unclaimed weapons" in possession of the
Police Department by public auction to allow for restricted sale or trade
of these weapons to licensed firearms dealers.

estimated value of $7,375. The proceeds of sale or trade of these weapons
would be used to offset Police Department costs for duty firearms and/or
ammunition.

AMEND THE ORDINANCE, ADDING THE LANGUAGE TO ALLOW FOR THE SALE OF FIREARMS
TO LICENSED GUN DEALERS, THAT THE SALE WOULD BE RESTRICTED TO LICENSED GUN
DEALERS, OR THE DEPARTMENT COULD CONVERT THEM TO THEIR OWN USE, OR COULD
DESTROY THEM AS THE DEPARTMENT WOULD DETERMINE.
Council further discussed this issue in detail.
THE MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 4 FOR AND 2 AGAINST (WALTERS, SCHANZ).
IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILOR SHAVER, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILOR BEYER, TO
