There were no public comments.
We welcome Pam Skinner as our new member of the Planning Commission and welcome back Jaye Binkerd and Gary Weight who kept their positions.
Joe Witt 3000 S Big Hollow Rd.
Ryan Taylor of Epic Engineering has completed a plan review for the Joe Witt home located at 660 W 3000 S. He handed a copy of the plan drawings to the Commissioners to look over and invited them ask any questions they might have. Joe wishes to tear down the old home on the property. He has two options: to remove the old home with a demolition plan, prior to issuing the building permit, or have a bond posted for the removal, within 30 days, when the new home is complete. County health and fire approvals are still needed as well before issuing the permit.
Commissioner Weight moved to approve the application for Joe Witt’s residence when the notes on the plan review are satisfied with staff. Commissioner Glodowski seconded the motion, the vote was unanimous and the motion carried.
Council actions report/Director report – Report on action items that the Town council has or will be considering etc.
When all the Commissioners are present they will elect the Chairman and Vice Chair for the Planning Commission. Pam Skinner was appointed as the new member of the Planning Commission.
Mayor Duggin received an award for his work on the water system.
The town received an application for residential treatment center of adults located on 1756 E Little Sweden. The town’s attorney is reviewing, asking questions, and getting more details about this facility.
Fee schedule for building permits – Agri. Buildings, dwellings, commercial, etc.
The Commissioners looked over the papers given them showing the fee schedule for building permits. They were shown the current prices and the proposed prices. The Non-residential fees refer to commercial, school, and church buildings.
Commissioner Norris moves to recommend to the Town Council on proposed resolution of the new fee schedule of adding 5% to each item with Commissioner Glodowski seconding. Discussion: Commissioner Weight doesn’t think we need to add an extra 5% since we can change fees at any time. The others feel the 5% increase is a good addition at this time. The motion stands, the vote is unanimous and the motion carried.
The last page of the fee schedule is about culinary water. Chairman Bunker would like to see a construction fee added to the list. The town could buy a meter, require a deposit, and then lease the meter to construction companies or the companies could provide their own and put it on a hydrant.
Commissioner Glodowski moves to recommend to the Town Council of any commercial construction to put a $500 deposit for a meter plus a monthly rental fee to be determined by the Town Council. Our rates are to correlate with existing water rates. Commissioner Norris seconded the motion, the vote was unanimous and the motion carried.
1- Approval of 16 Jan 2013 minutes
Commissioner Binkerd moved to approve the minutes of 16 January 2013 with Commissioner Glodowski seconding. Discussion: Chairman Bunker noted a few items that needed corrections. The vote was unanimous as per corrections being made first. The motion carried.
2- Motion to adjourn.
Commissioner Weight moved to adjourn the meeting with Commissioner Glodowski seconding. The vote was unanimous, the motion carried, and the meeting ended at 8: 38 p.m.
