Fudge here. Jet here. Forbes here. Warl here. Van Bellson. Forum is present. Current copy of the openings meeting act of Nebraska is posted on the back of council chambers in that frame right there. You can reference that at any point during the meeting if you would like. Item number two, approved minutes special meeting or the uh meeting held on uh June 23rd. I guess it was special because it wasn't on Tuesday.

Sorry about that. I trust you all read these intently. Motion. Is there a second? Make a We got a motion. I got a motion right here. Say it louder. Motion by Forbes, seconded by Bane to approve the minutes as presented. Any more discussion on that matter? Not shall, please. Yep. Yes. Uhoh. Oh, here we go. Uhoh. There it is.

And the minutes are approved. Item number three is a public hearing file number CU25- Z003. Discussion consider action on application by Todd McKeman for conditional use permit to allow construction of a seasonal cabin to be located at 1228 Hilltop Circle in an RL suburban residential district on property described as lot 21 Indian Hill sites subdivision to Lincoln County, Nebraska. Judy,

you should have all received a copy of the review comments. Attached to that is a justification and a site plan provided by the applicant and also a couple of location maps. As stated, the applicant is requesting to construct a small 24x 24 seasonal cabin on an undeveloped lot for his family to use as a private getaway. This should not be a detriment to the surrounding area as the lot is very secluded and barely visible from the neighborhood and surrounding property. Planning staff has no objection to the conditional use application. The property is currently vacant and is located in a large lot in a residential area. An additional residential structure in the area should not be to surrounding property. The applicant is in the audience if you would like to ask any question.

Okie dokie. This is a public hearing. Planning commission values your input and wants to hear from the audience. During public hearings, anyone wishing to speak speak must be first recognized by the chair. Once recognized, please approach the podium. State your name and address. Please keep your comments as brief as possible. Repetitive and excessively long testimony may be ended at the discretion of the chair. And with that, the public hearing is now open. Anybody like to talk about this one, going once, going twice. I make a motion we close public hearing. Second.

Motion by Bane, seconded by Jet to close the public hearing. Any discussion on that motion? Not Michelle, please. Glenn, you have to eat all the cookies because you were late. The entire plate of cookies and all the crumbs. Lee Kurt, I pushed it. Well, it didn't record it. Okay, now you got it. Okay, the public hearing is now closed. We'll talk about this up here right now. Any comments, concerns, questions? I live out there. I didn't know this lot existed because it's

Does it set a precedence for future type structures on lots? I don't know that it necessarily sets a precedent. Um cabins, seasonal cabins um are allowed by conditional use. So if somebody else wanted to put one in that area, they would have to come here and it's basically a case by case basis. You guys have the right to decide.

Okay. Any more discussion on this matter? There is an approved or there's a suggested motion there. Remember, you have to uh read all the factual findings plus any other conditions that you feel like are appropriate to place on this application. Glenn's just been sitting there enjoying his cookie. I move that we find the request for a conditional use permit to allow construction of SE seasonal cabin to be located at 1228 Hilltop Circle meets the minimum standard stated in Northplac code of ordinances section 156.322 and approve and grant the conditional use permit requested with the condition that all elements of the application are complied with based on the following factual findings. The use shall conform to all applicable ordinances, laws, regulations of any government jurisdiction. The use shall have adequate water, sewer, and drainage facilities. Ingress and egress shall be so designed as to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets. The use shall in all other respects conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located. The use shall be in harmony with the character of the area and the most appropriate use of the land.

There a second. Second motion by Bane, seconded by Jet to recommend approval of the conditional use. Any more discussion on this matter? I have a question. Um, it won't have water, sewer, and drainage though, will it? Well, no, not really because we have no intent of putting that in, at least to my knowledge. Um, is it required? It's not a typical residential structure. It's just a seasonal cabin. I mean, they might camp there, but yeah, it's not going to have that. And I don't have an opinion one way or the other on whether it does or doesn't, but I'm just wondering, does number two require them to

number two? Should it say the use may have? Well, I think the I think the key word here is adequate. So, and I'm watching Zan nod at me. Yeah, perfect. So, that the use here is techical question. Yep. Um, so long as it's adequate for the design use. Very good. I didn't want them to have to do something they didn't intend to do. Because you'd be in a position out there where you'd have to drill a well and put a septic system in if that were going to be the case. So, okay. Thank you. Yep. Any more discussion? Not. Yes. I'm locked out again, so I cannot add one. Is it okay to say yes or Why don't we just Why don't we just roll call this? But it's going to take a while if we just roll call vote it then. Okay. Roll call all of it.

Yep. There we go. Because I can do it. I just can't go back. Nope. That's fine. Just just we'll do a roll call vote now. Do I say I or yes or name? She'll she'll just call it. Okay. Ready? Yeah. Go ahead. Bane. Yes. Fudge. Yes. Jet. Yes. For yes. Oral. Yes. Dan Bellson. Oh, yeah. Davies, yes. Mun, yes. Matthews, yes. Okay, this will go on to the city council meeting for August 5th with a positive recommendation.

Good luck. Item number four, discussion, consider action. Uh, file number SU25-010. discussion. Consider action on preliminary and final approval of Mulligan Meadows Fourth Subdivision located at west on West 15th Street and a PR3 dwelling district on property described as lots 1 through 5, Mulligan Meadows 2 subdivision and lot 17 Mulligan Meadows third subdivision, North Plat Lincoln County, Nebraska. Judy,

and you should have all received a copy of the review comments attached to that as a prel preliminary and final subdivision. It will reconfigure five existing lots and create five new lots for future development in a PR3 dwelling district. Public utilities will be available to service the lots at the developer's expense and according to the approved redevelopment contract. Planning staff has no objection to the proposed subdivision. The property is located in a residential district and will have access to city infrastructure. This is phase four of a five-phase project and will continue to develop housing in the area. Um, the applicant is here if you have any questions. This looks great out there.

Come on up, Gary. Just letting you know that uh name and address real quick. Sorry.

Gary Pearson, uh, 502 South Dwey, president, North Plat Area Chamber Development Corporation. Uh, this a chamber development owned subdivision. Um, if you've been by there, you see all the the housing that's that's going in. We just put two additional streets, sewer, water, all the infrastructure in this extension of one of those streets. Then gets us over not only creates five new lots, but uh gets us to the point where in that corner is where that uh three fourplex unit that we were successful in getting a real workforce housing fund grant uh to build that and then eventually get a permanent revolving loan fund into the community. uh because that uh alters a little bit away from our original redevelopment plan. We'll probably have to come back and modify that which we'll do prior to the time that we do that project. But that project's also moving along and u so we the subdivisions turning out really good. The properties are selling well and we'll just continue doing what we're doing. It's 33rd lot I think this creates. So perfect.

Thanks Gary. Appreciate all your work on this. Any other questions, comments? There's a proposed motion there. I move to make a recommendation to approve file number SU25-010 preliminary and final approval of Mulligan Meadows Force subdivision. Second. Motion by Jet, seconded by Mune to make a recommendation to approve this uh subdivision. Any more discussion? Not roll call. Bloat vote please. Judy. Yes. Jet, yes. Yes. Coral, yes. Van Bellson, Davies, yes. Mun, yes. Matthews, yes. Bane,

yes. Okay. And this again will go to the August 5th city council meeting with positive motion. Thanks, Carrie. Item number five, old business. Any old business for the good of the mort? Any new business for the good of the cause? Um the housing study open house is tomorrow night along with the um county. So there's one at um Thursday. There's Thursday. It's Thursday. Thursday. Sorry. Two two o'clock. Thursday. Yeah. 2 o'clock in the afternoon and then there's another one at 6:30 I believe. So the only reason I knew that is because it's on my calendar. And is that going to say anything about the wind farm? Because that's all people know.

It is not going to be just singularly a wind farm. It will go over all the chapters in the county comprehensive plan. It is not meant to be a public hearing regarding wind farm generation. Okay. Duly noted. Any other new business? If not, we are ajourned. Easy peasy meeting.
