CANTON — The Canton City Council voted to accept the private streets of one subdivision, but tabled consideration of another during its meeting on Thursday.

The council voted 5-1, with Councilman Bob Rush opposing, to accept the streets of the Pinnacle Place neighborhood within the River Green subdivision.

The council voted to table until July 5 a review of a request from the Villas at RiverStone to accept its private streets.

The issue of the city accepting private streets of several subdivisions had been championed by Councilman John Beresford, who lives in the Pinnacle Place neighborhood.

Councilman Bill Bryan, who also voted in favor, questioned if it were a conflict of interest for Beresford to vote on the issue.

City Attorney Bobby Dyer said voting on the issue wasn’t a direct financial interest.

The council also directed Dyer to draft an ordinance to amend the city’s alcohol ordinance to change its food-to-alcohol to allow for food sales to be at least 50 percent to be classified as a restaurant.

The current ordinance says restaurants’ food sales must meet the 60 percent threshold.

The ordinance will be for review during the city’s July 5 work session.

Council members also:

* Approved the city’s Americans with Disabilities Act resolution and transition plan;

* Approved rules, regulations and fees for the Southview Cemetery;

* Approved a resolution endorsing the city’s project to be paid for out of the Community Development Block Grant; the city proposes using the funds to make repairs along Marietta Road between Dr. John T. Pettit Street and East Marietta Street.

* Discussed developing a master plan for Heritage Park, which would include extra amenities;

* Discussed ideas on how to celebrate the Civil War sesquicentennial event in 2014; and

* Mayor Gene Hobgood announced he appointed Steve Padgett to the Stormwater Advisory Board and Leon Gramling to the Planning and Zoning Committee.
