David stated he would recommend no more business be conducted at the building.  Mr. Shaw stated they don't need to necessarily shut down all operations they just need to operate in compliance with the residential business ordinance.  Mr. Shaw asked if there are employees coming to the home at this time.  Ms. Lenz stated no, they are all at the new location.  David Jay stated employees are not allowed to come in and out of the home.  Mr. Shaw stated they need something from TLG Acoustics saying that they are in compliance with the ordinance.  He stated if they can provide that for the next meeting, the Council can proceed with that information.  Mr. Shaw stated he feels uncomfortable pushing this out to the January meeting.  Boyd Ferrin motioned to table the revocation of the business license until January.
