Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 15, 2005 Page 8 1 2 Chair Stromgren stated that they plan to review and clean up the outdated portions of the City 3 Ordinances. He explained that one issue that has come before the Commission, on several 4 occasions, is proposals for an addition to a home and the residents are denied due to lot coverage 5 requirements. He asked if the review would be completed in time to have an impact for Mr. 6 Walek. 7 8 Ms. Moore-Sykes explained that what they are referencing would be a change in the ordinance. 9 She further explained that the process would involve three readings before final approval, which 10 is a time consuming process that could easily take up to two months or more to complete. 11 12 Chair Stromgren asked Ms. Moore-Sykes to provide the Commission with a memo, prior to the 13 next Planning Commission meeting, that itemizes all of the proposed ordinance changes. He 14 asked to include the review as an agenda item for the March Planning Commission meeting and 15 asked the Commissioners to review the proposed changes and contact Ms. Moore-Sykes with any 16 additional feedback. 17 18 Commissioner Jensen stated that he would like an interpretation of the variance from the City 19 Attorney. Ms. Moore-Sykes noted that it is her understanding that in the past the City has had 20 the authority to grant this type of variance and acknowledged his concerns noting a good point 21 raised is to whether the City would be able to defend the approval legally. 22 23 Commissioner Jenson welcomed Commissioner Heath Galyon to the Planning Commission. 24 25 Vice Chair Hanson stated that he would like an update on where the City is at with Sunset 26 Memorial Park.
