Planning & Zoning Board <br />October 14, 2015 <br />Page 6 <br />APPROVED MINUTES <br />Ms. Larsen noted that in the Saddle Club and NorthPointe projects the applicants had to <br />go through this same process since there was a floodplain on those properties. She also <br />stated that in the city there are not a lot of properties where structures are built on the <br />flood fringe. <br /> <br />Mr. Hyden asked how he would go about finding out if he is on a floodplain. Ms. Larsen <br />responded that staff can easily look up that information through the GIS system. <br /> <br />Mr. Masonick asked if you can put a temporary structure on a floodplain. Ms. Thompson <br />replied that it is okay as long as the structure is highway ready and has current <br />registration. <br /> <br />Mr. Evenson asked for clarification from city staff on how the insurance process works <br />for those who need flood insurance. Ms. Thompson explained the process and Ms. <br />Hankee gave an estimate for the costs associated with the process. <br /> <br />Mr. Laden asked city staff to explain what the GIS system is, since he hears that term <br />being used a lot. Ms. Larsen described the ARC GIS system and noted that the public <br />does not have access to the system. Ms. Larsen ensured that it is paid for by city staff, <br />not the public. Ms. Thompson and Ms. Larsen explained that the floodplain information <br />will be available to the public on the FEMA website. <br /> <br />Mr. Hyden declared the Public Hearing open at 7:51 p.m. <br /> <br />There was no one present for the Public Hearing. <br /> <br />Mr. Laden made a MOTION to close the Public Hearing at 7:52 p.m. Motion was <br />supported by Mr. Masonick. <br /> <br />Mr. Laden made a MOTION to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance. <br /> <br />Motion was supported by Mr. Kassner. Motion carried 5 - 0. (Hyden abstained.) <br /> <br />VI. DISCUSSION ITEMS <br /> <br />A. Project Updates <br /> <br />Ms. Larsen provided an update of current city projects. Ms. Hankee gave an update on <br />the Shenandoah, West Oaks, NorthPointe and Saddle Club projects. <br /> <br />Ms. Larsen announced that the November Planning & Zoning Board meeting has been <br />moved to Wednesday, November 18th, as our offices are closed on Wednesday, <br />November 11th in observance of Veterans Day. <br /> <br />VII.
