CITIZEN'S COMMENTS Jim McKinley Dwayne Traynor OLD BUSINESS NEW BUSINESS Jim McKinley, 4404 South 164th, stated he had been before the Board of Adjustment requesting a variance so he can put a roof over a carport. Since he was denied the variance he stated he was considering the advisability of filing an appeal with Superior Court. He stated he was disturbed by the proceedings and the result. Councilmember Bauch explained to Mr. McKinley it is not within the jurisdiction of the City Council to grant variances. Dwayne Traynor, 14910 58th Avenue South, stated he questioned the benefit to Councilmembers of the trips they are making to attend conferences and seminars, especially to out -of -state locations. He requested the list of the trips taken by Councilmembers during 1985 and 1986 to attend conferences and seminars, the benefits that were derived, and it be reported in the Minutes of a meeting. Councilmember Morgan asked Mr. Traynor if he had the same opinion of trips taken by administration? Mr. Traynor stated he had not seen the agendas for the trips that have been taken by administration. His concern is did the trips benefit the City or was it money thrown away?
