Members present were Wayne Avery, Hal Bailey, Mike Cameron, Donna DeKraai, Greg Fargen, Alan Gregg, John Sydow, and Heuton. John Gustafson was absent. Others present were Community Development Director Mike Struck, City Engineer Jackie Lanning, Planning and Zoning Administrator Dan Hanson, and others. Item #3a – Cameron asked where the drainage easement would be located. Lanning replied that a 50 foot wide easement would be created along I -29 on the west side of Lot 1. Item #4 – The Tax Incremental District (TID) would be created to assist in the development of public improvements for 32nd Avenue from the quarter line to Highway 14 By-Pass. Fargen asked about the financial package that would be created. Struck responded that financial consultants would work with the county to establish the plan. A project plan for the TID would be submitted to the Pl anning Commission at a later date. Fargen asked for an update on previous TIDs. Struck noted that a similar TID covered the Innovation Campus area and was on-going. He added that 20 years was a standard time line. Item #5 – The Planning Commission toured the South Campus Neighborhood in response to a request from the City Council. The goal was to view the make-up of the neighborhood first hand. Current zoning and land use was discussed as well as the percentage and location of rental and owner-occupied dwellings. Hanson distributed information regarding identified issues, neighborhood characteristics, and economic considerations for the area. Hanson also included the zoning restrictions imposed on property once it became a legal non- conforming use. Hanson noted that, given the size of the area under consideration, a rezoning could impact a property years or decades before it was converted to a conforming use.

Cameron favored a future land use designation as a first step. Heuton remarked that the needs of the neighborhood and community should be indentified. The Comprehensive Plan could be amended to address the overall future plan for the area. Item #6 – Data involving the Folsom and Summit neighborhoods was completed. This was the last information that was compiled for the four targeted neighborhoods. The Planning Commissioners will study the date and make final recommendations on any changes at a later meeting. The meeting was adjourned. _______________________ ______________________ Dan Hanson, Secretary Al Heuton, Chairperson Planning & Zoning Administrator
