Cunliffe declined to characterize what musical groups are troublesome, but police claim much of the violence occurred near music stages where rock bands were performing. A Saturday night melee also erupted among fans waiting for a band, which festival officials listed by mistake, to show up.

Nonetheless, Russell said the ordinance provides "the framework" of how the council majority thinks the conflicting demands for limiting growth should be reconciled. The measure that was voted on Wednesday would, like the initiative, require smaller buildings on much of the city's commercial property and would control the height of future buildings near residences.

Russell argued that the revised council ordinance, which will be back for final approval next week and become effective just three days before the election, is a better balance of concerns about overdevelopment and the need to preserve the city's "economic viability." Notification of public hearings is not required for the revised ordinance. Wotf- weisfields JEWELERS ''THE LOOK.
