PUBLIC HEARING FOR DEVELOPMENT CODE CHANGE PERTAINING TO
BUILDING MATERIALS
Planning Commission recommends to the Town Board to approve the amendment to Chapter
Two, Section 9.13, Sections 1-3 to change and clarify the type of building material used on
accessory structures under adopting Ordinance Number 86.
Nancy Madden made a motion to approve the Planning Commission recommendation to
adopt Ordinance Number 86. Dennis Seefeldt seconded the motion for discussion. Motion
failed. Dennis Seefeldt made a motion to schedule a Workshop in October to review this
issue further with other items in the Development Code. Michael Hinz seconded the motion
and motion adopted unanimously.
Planning Comnussion recommends to the Town Board to grant the Boundary Adjustment to
remove 9.83 acres from Mr. Erickson's 81.75 acre parcel and add it to Mr. Lushanko's 5.16 acre
parcel as presented on the survey and waive the public hearing requirement. Conditions are the
9.83 acre parcel must be combined under one tax identification number with the 5.16 acre parcel.
Also, the newly created 14.99 -acre parcel can not be further subdivided under current zoning
codes. Findings are this does not create a new residential lot and it reduces the density of Mr.
Erickson's 71 acre remaining parcel.
Blair Joselyn made a motion to approve the recommendation for Edward Erickson
regarding the Boundary Adjustment. Nancy Madden seconded the motion and motion
adopted unanimously.
Plamling Commission recommends to the Town Board that they request the Township Planner to
review the Metropolitan council "System Statement" dated September 12, 2005, which inculdes
population, household, and employment forecasts and how regional system plans for
transportation, water resources management and regional parks will specifically impact the
Township, and that the plamler prepare a draft response to the Metropolitan Council for
consideration of the Board of Supervisors.
Michael Hinz made a motion to approve the Planning Commission recommendations
regarding the Comprehensive Plan Update. Nancy Madden seconded the motion and
motion adopted unanimously.
