Exterior Storage - There was discussion regarding alot that could be used to store items such as boats, trailers, etc. There are no plans for this type of storage. This concluded Mr. Shorts presentation.

Mr. McLean moved to table the preliminay plat of Rice Lake Estates until such time as the City Engineer has provided his review to us concerning the preliminary plat submission. Mr. Doocy seconded the motion. Mr. Doocy asked the developer to also handle some of the problems they have brought up so that when they meet again they not only have the Engineers letter but also a revised pre- liminary plat with revised street layout, pedestrian walkways, concern about soil limitations, park land dedication, landscaping, etc. Mr. Doocy asked these comments be added to Mr. McLeans motion. Mr. McLean accepted the addition. Motion declared passed. Mr. Doocy asked the Clerk to send a copy of the minutes to Mr. Johnson. TIME LIMIT ON BUILDING PERMITS ORDINANCE r. Kluegel presented a draft of an ordinance that would put time limits on certain port- ions of a building permit. This matter had been discussed during the May Planning and Zoning Board meeting. Mr. McLean questions section B, "shall expire by limitation." Mr. Kluegel was not sure why this wording,it had been part of the sample ordinance he had used. Mr. McLean felt such language was not necessary. Mr. Prokop asked what happens to this particular ordinance. Mr. Kluegel explained it becomes part of the City Code. Mrs. Klaus asked what happens when an ordinance is not obeyed. Mr. Kluegel explained there is a section of the City Code that provides for a penalty for disobeying City Code. Mr. Prokop asked if there was anything in this code that covers destruction by act of God and the building cannot be completed as required by this new ordinance. Mr. Kluegel said there is nothing in the code pertaining to this situation and felt it would be a "judgement call" on his part. It was decided that this should be the building inspectors judgement. Mr. McLean moved that the submission for Time Limits on Building Permits be forwarded to Mr. Hawkins to be formalized into an ordinance with legal wording and that item B have the words "by limitation and become null and void" deleted. Upon Mr. Hawkins completing the review of the ordinance the ordinance should be submitted to the Council for approval. Mr. Doocy seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. •LD BUSINESS None
