Planning Commission January 10, 2019 Page 2 Bald Eagle Sportsmen's Association SUP Review — 6557 125th St Weber started with a background on the Bald Eagle Sportsmen's Association and their previous SUP review. The SUP was last reviewed and amended September 22, 2016 when an additional building was added to the property. Condition 19 of the permit states that the permit shall be reviewed prior to December 1 st of the even -numbered years or if the SUP is amended or violated. Staff visited the gun club on December 17, 2018. Staff noticed there are areas of the fence that need to be repaired and maintained, which was discussed with the President of BESA and he stated the fence will be fixed. Weber also stated that no complaints have been made against the BESA in the last few years. Staff is not aware of any violations of the existing permit and finds BESA to be in compliance with the SUP. Staff recommended approval of the SUP review and invited BESA President David Arcand forward if he would like to address the Planning Commission at that time. Mr. Arcand came forward to comment on the fact that very little has changed with the use of the property other than the verbiage the BESA uses to describe the association. They prefer gun and archery club over gun club as currently majority of the facility is used for archery trails. Chair Kleissler asked if there were any questions. Commissioner Fry commented on how well the association is ran and Mr. Arcand responded that they strictly monitor shooting hours on the property as to comply with their permit. The association enforces a penalty for any member who violates these conditions. Derr motioned to renew the SUP for the Bald Eagle Sportsmen's Association for two years, Fry seconded. All ayes. Motion carried. Approval of 2019 Goals Juba reviewed the goals that were discussed at the goal setting workshop on December 20, 2018. The Planning Commission set a goal of zoning ordinance text amendments which involves scheduling regular Ordinance Review Committee meetings and evaluating and revising the shoreland, small cells, subdivision, and PUD sections of the City Code.

Another goal set by the Planning Commission is to provide training for Commission members that covers procedures and land use training. The last goal topic for 2019 is presentation topics. This includes an overview of existing conditions and future improvements to Highway 61 as well as a recap of design guidelines set for the City.
