MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS
Revisions to Building Site and Operation Plan application materials relating to color
renderings. At the previous Plan Commission meeting, the Commission requested staff to bring
this item back with corrected language requiring color renderings. Plan Director Turk stated
that the language has been changed to reflect color renderings to be more of a requirement
and less of a recommendation. The submittal count has been changed from fifteen (15) to
eighteen (18) due to additional packets being distributed. The members agreed with the
proposed changes.
Plan Director Turk also mentioned that the Common Council deferred a resolution authorizing
the Community Development Authority to perform duties otherwise performed by the Plan
Commission. The Common Council is requesting feedback from the Plan Commission
members if they object to the resolution. The resolution would allow the Community
Development Authority to have authorization for a TID creation in redevelopment districts. The
Community Development Authority would review the concept and decide if this is an
economical development and determine the viability of the concept. Once this has been
established, the matter would appear before the Plan Commission. Consensus of the
members did not object to this resolution. However, members requested that the lines of
communication stay open
to recognize the approval boundaries of each committee.
ADJOURNMENT
Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to adjourn at 7:37 p.m. Commissioner Brodel
seconded. Upon a voice vote, motion carried. With no further business to come before the
Commission, the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
