09; and,

appeal on February 3, 2003..

overturns the decision of SPARC based on the following finding:
a In this particular case, the City Council finds no clear evidence that provides a visual or
architectural distinction between wood windows and any other available window material

ranch Subdivision.
Under the power and authority conferred upon this Council by the Charter of said City.
