Planning Commission <br />September 22, 2016 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Commissioner McRoberts asked Mr. Axelson to elaborate on how the request from the Sportsmen’s <br />Association adversely impacts him or his property. <br /> <br />Mr. Axelson stated that the increase of traffic effects them as they already have people driving on their property <br />looking for the Bald Eagle Sportsmen’s Club. He also stated that the increase of traffic in a rural area is <br />frustrating. Mr. Axelson also described that an increase in members means an increase in noise from the club. <br />He stated that he is unaware of any noise remediation the gun club has done, especially along the west property <br />line, which abuts his property. <br /> <br />Commissioner McRoberts asked Mr. Arcand if the Bald Eagle Sportsmen’s Association would consider some <br />signage to better direct people to the property. <br /> <br />Mr. Arcand stated that they would like to put up more signage, but the special use permit reads that they are <br />only allowed a 4x8 sign that must be contained on the property. <br /> <br />Commissioner McRoberts asked Juba if the signage requirements could be amended. <br /> <br />Juba stated that the signage requirements could not be changed at this time, because that is not what the <br />applicant was requesting, so it was not noticed as such. She stated that the sign ordinance has changed since the <br />SUP was issued so staff could work with Mr. Arcand to see if any directio nal signs would be allowed without <br />having to amend the permit. <br /> <br />Commissioner McRoberts asked Mr. Arcand about the tree buffer along the west property line. <br /> <br />Mr. Arcand stated that there are old growth Oaks along the property line currently. He stated that they could <br />look into planting some Spruce of Evergreens along that property line. <br /> <br />McRoberts stated that it would be beneficial to look into planting some buffer trees along that property line and <br />to work with staff on signage. <br /> <br />Chair Kleissler closed the public hearing at 7:19 p.m. <br /> <br />Commissioner McRoberts stated that he believes that the applicant and staff can work together to help solve <br />some of the issues that were brought up. <br /> <br />Commissioner Rosenquist made a motion, Commissioner McRoberts seconded, to recommend approval of the <br />SUP amendment and permit review. <br /> <br />All Ayes, motion carried. <br /> <br />Adjournment <br /> <br />Commissioner McRoberts made a motion, Commissioner Lessard seconded, to adjourn at 7:22 p.m. <br /> <br />All Ayes. Motion carried. <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br />Rachel Leitz, Community Development Assistant
