3. New Business:
a. Discussion and consideration of amending 2024 Annual Meeting Schedule
Planner Seedall said the purpose of this is to have DRC less regular so I can have a more active role working with developers to get submittal packages put together. We plan to meet every other week—the first and third Wednesdays of the month. This will make it a little bit easier not having to get agenda meetings coordinated that are on back-to-back days. This will help me be more active with submittals for DRC and we can have discussions on the off weeks.
Motion by Chairman Seedall to approve the new meeting schedule. Motion seconded by Director Fulgham. Vote: Chairman Seedall – aye, Engineer Breinholt – aye, Manager Christensen – aye, Director Fulgham – aye, Director LeFevre – absent, Design Planner Taylor – aye, Inspector Seaman – aye. Motion approved.
b. Discussion and consideration of Final Plat for Harvest Acres, Phase 3—Garth Day
Mr. Day said Phase 3 was a lot bigger, with about 28 lots. We are slowing it down and only doing half. The challenge will be sewer. Engineer Breinholt said you are also missing an easement for that offsite sewer. I need him to show me phasing on the construction drawings. They need to show what is going to be built with this phase. It needs to show the turnaround. It will need to terminate with a hydrant. We have to show the easement. I am going to escrow for it. Mr. Day said could we adopt or approve the final plat with those stipulations? Engineer Breinholt said I am fine with it. I already know what the construction drawings look like for the whole area. I just need a phasing plan.
Motion by Chairman Seedall to approve the final plat under the stipulations stated above with approval from Engineer Breinholt. Motion seconded by Engineer Breinholt. Vote: Chairman Seedall – aye, Engineer Breinholt – aye, Manager Christensen – aye, Director Fulgham – aye, Director LeFevre – absent, Design Planner Taylor – aye, Inspector Seaman – aye. Motion approved.
c. Walk-ins:
Mr. Day also spoke on River Valley Subdivision, Phase 9. We have a problem with where the dumpster goes. We tried to do a special exception but could not find a way under the code. There is not a special exception provision. We could do individual cans to service these 12 units. We would build a spot for them with a little fence where they slide it in by their back door. Director Fulgham said we would have to limit them to one can per unit and label them with the unit number and address. This is a short-term solution then? Mr. Day said no, this is a permanent solution. Director Fulgham said I do not like this as a permanent solution because then every apartment is going to want cans. After some discussion, Mr. Day said I will widen the parking lot. The Commission discussed the buffer and landscaping and where snow removal would go and where a dumpster would be located. Mr. Day said I will go to work and get you something submitted for your new schedule.
4. Comments/Reports: None.
5. Public comments: No public comments.
