New Business
After discussion, the board decided to begin the review review of the ordinance by looking back at the final draft they completed for the original, before that draft was taken to the county attorney. Roland will gather this information prior to the next meeting. Prior to the October 20,2011 meeting the Planning Department will begin putting together recommendations that would solve recurring problems the department is seeing from the administrative standpoint of the Subdivision Ordinance. Furthermore, Roland suggested that the board members email him their recommendations concerning the ordinance, which can then be included into the Planning Department Document.
A motion was made by Larry Stenger to revise the agenda, allowing the public to speak at the beginning and end of Planning Board meetings. This motion was then amended to include a sign up sheet for those who wish to speak and time limit of 20 minutes per public session period, with anything over 20 minutes being left at the discretion of the chairman. Susan Irvin seconded this motion. Motion carried unanimously.
