1. GeorgeV: Finding no way to be assured that changes would result in
workforce/affordable housing,  City Council decided last night to not move
forward with zoning ordinance changes that would have allowed multi-family
3-story construction and eased up such parking requirements in C-1
(commercial) zones. See RJ's Gazette article at
http://www.dailyastorian.com/CBG/news/20180905/affordable-housing-proposal-amendments-are-tabled

2. "A Man with Standards" John O'Hurley will perform this Sat Sept 8th at

Theatre,  $75 includes appetizers and beverages prior to the show. There

host of the National Dog Show, played J Peterman on Seinfeld and much more.

4. GeorgeV: As the rabbit population in Cannon Beach grows, so does the
concern expressed by some citizens about the downside of these cute little
furry creatures. The City Council heard last night from a Tolovana resident
concerned about the health issues with so much "manure" in her yard. She
wants the City to do something about this growing problem. Citizens are
free to trap rabbits in their yards. They are not protected. It is illegal
to discharge any type of firearm within the City.
