Planning and Zoning Meeting - Regular Meeting

Okay, so we're about to start Okay, so we're about to start Does it show him Okay, let me see if it shows it All right, we will call the meeting to order. We'll start with roll call.

Seth.

Here.

Steve.

Here.

Bill.

Here. Carl. Here.

We have a quorum.

Okay, we'll start with the approval of the last meeting's minutes from May 21st. Take a motion for approval.

I motion for approval.

I second. Bill seconds. We don't have any public comments. Oh, I'm sorry. All in favor.

Aye.

Okay. And all opposed. So motion carries. No public comments because we don't have any members of the public here tonight. We'll need to do, so on our agenda we have The election of officers and old business. So since we have such a slim crew here tonight, it's staff suggestion that we postpone those two items until our August meeting. So if that's the direction you'd like to go, I would need a motion to amend the agenda to remove those two items.

move the election officers and then the whole business next month.

Okay, perfect. And then a second?

I'll second.

Bill seconds. All in favor?

Aye.

Okay, and that motion carries. So then we do have one new business item on the agenda. It is for replat number 3-26. For the parcel numbers listed, it's the Barnett subdivision, located at 408 East Main Street, lot 6 and 7. So they'll be replotting to lot 6A and 7A. We'll start with the staff presentation.

Replot 03. 3, 2026 address is 408 East Main Street. As she said, lot 6 and 7 Burnett subdivision into lot 6A and 7A. The applicant was wanting to put a detached garage on his, he has two lots and he wanted to put it on the back lot, but our code would not allow that. So what we're, what he's proposing is that he move the lot line back so that he can still build on the primary lot.

So our code requires that you cannot have an accessory building be the primary structure on a single parcel. So he technically could not build an accessory building on that second or back lot. One, it would be landlocked and two, the code allows for only one main primary structure and then an accessory building to a primary structure.

It's just a residential garage type.

I don't have any details on the garage yet. He hasn't submitted anything yet because they want to make sure you get approved first. They would have to meet our code requirements.

And so this is literally just moving the line back like it wasn't much, like less than 10 feet, I think.

149 from 176. We couldn't, he wanted to just combine the ones and the one, but wouldn't allow that either because then you'd have to get a variance because it would make it a larger lot and so the width of the lot would have to be wider.

Seth has a question here. Go ahead, Seth.

Isn't this the same thing that we've already talked about several times on this one?

No, this is a different one.

Oh, OK. Sorry.

No, this is a different one. So this, yeah, so he can only have one primary structure. So he can't have an accessory building on a parcel by itself. And then in order to make it one big lot instead of two lots, our code would not allow for the 85 feet frontage because that's so much square footage in total. The frontage would have to increase.

Right? So we would have had to get a bigger yes to allow for that.

Is it landlocked?

Just that back lot would be yes. But he's not lying to build on the back lot.

It's already landlocked right now.

Let me just explain.

Let me show you.

Well, I just wondered.

He's wanting to build like right here. He's moving this back so he can build here because he can't make it all by itself.

Is there any utilities?

No utilities.

Just kind of screwed up deal.

Yeah, which there lies his frustration with the code.

Which is understandable.

Mm hmm. Any questions or thoughts? The applicant is not present tonight.

So all he's wanting to do is just move that line where there'll be enough property to build because, is it because of our requirement of having so much space? But there still have to be two lots, so one of them just be smaller than the other.

Correct.

Gotcha.

then he'll build on the bigger lot. Okay. If there's no further discussion, I'll take a motion.

I'll make the motion to approve.

Okay.

I second.

Okay. All in favor?

Aye.

No opposed. So motion carries. Okay. So we have postponed the election of officers to the next meeting and then we postponed the discussion on parking under old business to the next meeting as well. So we'll meet again on August 20th. August 20th. Those will be postponed to. And... Oh, it says it right there. And then I'll take a motion to adjourn if there's no further business.

I'll make a motion to adjourn.

And I need a second. Seth and Bill did that at the same time, so we'll say... Yeah. We'll split you guys.

All in favor?

No post. We'll see you guys on August 20th at 6pm.

Awesome. See y'all.

Thank you, Seth.
