<br />Planning & Zoning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />November 1, 2005 <br /> <br />Commissioner Klennert-Hunt asked if the shoreland regulations were changed. Mr. <br />Larson answered the ordinance is a minimum protection and further regulations were not <br />required due to the City's level of development. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson asked how many developing properties would be affected by the shoreland <br />regulations. Mr. Larson said there are two developments that might be affected, and <br />explained the ordinance requires PUD zoning for any shoreland development over four <br />units. He went on to explain that a PUD must be developed on at least 10 acres. These <br />conflicting provisions prevent large developments. <br /> <br />There was some discussion on the benefit of a PUD zoned development as it relates to <br />City control over the development. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hanzal asked what the repercussions of changing or eliminating the <br />minimum size for the PUD. Mr. Larson answered that developers have no guarantee of <br />being allowed to develop a PUD. <br /> <br />Commissioner Love said he was in favor of any development over four units being <br />required to have PUD zoning and therefore be subject to more input and control from the <br />City. <br /> <br />There was discussion on the best zoning for development downtown and how the PUD <br />regulations may fit into the area. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson asked if an M-l redevelopment could be forced to use the PUD restrictions <br />on a smaller lot in the case of a natural disaster. Mr. Larson answered the City could <br />respond to each property owner as they submit redevelopment plans in such a case. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hanzal asked if the City could approve or deny any request for a PUD and <br />asked how the Commission would know how to properly deny a development request. <br />Commissioner Wood read some of the ordinance that gives general power to the City to <br />deny development requests based on the City plan and the conformity with adjacent <br />properties. <br /> <br />Commission consensus was to eliminate the minimum size to the PUD and amend the <br />number of units to anything exceeding two units. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson said number 5 on page 17 of Ordinance 153.44 should say "sodded" rather <br />than seeded. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Kennert-Hunt. seconded by Commissioner Wood. to <br />chanee Paee 52 PUD reeulations to remove the minimum acreaee requirement. on <br />Paee 38 shoreland reeulation to require a PUD on any development exceedine two <br />units. and Paee 17. Item A-5 to replace "seeded" with "sodded". All in favor. <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />Page 2 of5 <br />
