SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION
Chairperson Alan Gregg called the regular meeting of the City Planning
Commission to order on October 5, 2010, at 7:00 PM in the Council Chamber at
City Hall. Members present were Wayne Avery, Donna DeKraai, Greg Fargen,
John Sydow, and Gregg. Mike Cameron, John Gustafson, Al Heuton, and Dave
Kurtz were absent. Also present were Wade Price, Mike McClemans, Cory Ann
Ellis, City Engineer Jackie Lanning, Community Development Director Mike
Struck, Planning and Zoning Administrator Dan Hanson and others.
Item #3 – DeKraai asked when the developer would sign the agreement
regarding the grading and drainage plans. Lanning responded that an
assurance agreement would be signed later.
Item #4 – Wade Price, representing Bluegill, Inc., stated he was trying to establish
the street layout so he could move ahead with the sanitary sewer design. Sydow
asked if the plan included the street that extended to 22nd Avenue South. Price
replied yes.
DeKraai felt that the submission of a drainage study and grading plan
should be a prerequisite to approval of the preliminary plan. Price remarked that
the Drainage Plan and Grading Plan were completed. Lanning noted that her
initial research indicated that studies had not been done for this area. Lanning
added that she would check the plans on file again.
Item #5 – Mike McClemans, representing Sunny Ridge, Inc. and Prairie Meadow,
Inc., stated he was not finished with the plan and asked that it be postponed.
Item #6 – Ellis referenced the data that she had submitted with her application.
Her data addressed much of the criteria required by the zoning ordinance.
Fargen felt the application complied with the home occupation
regulations. He noted that four (4) on-premise parking spaces were shown on
the plan.

Item #7 – Fargen asked if a proposed office project was permitted in any of the
districts. Hanson replied yes. Fargen stated that the rezoning appeared to be a
“clean-up” issue for this half of the block.
Hanson pointed out that several parcels east of 5th Avenue had been
rezoned to B-1 or were governed by the B-1 regulations over the last 20 years.
The neighborhood was transitioning toward more professional office uses.
The meeting was adjourned.
