Present were: Acting Chairman: Members: City Clerk: Attorney: Engineer: Mary Ann Mounts John Watson Mike Thueson Ted Whyte Davawn Beattie Rose Bagley Stephen Zollinger Joe Laird A motion was made by Davawn Beattie and seconded by John Watson to approve the minutes of June 25. All Aye RE: VARIANCE FOR SIGNS AT MADISON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. TOPIC: (500,1,,,VARIANCE,SIGNS,HOSPITAL,PUBILIC HEARING} John Watson presented plans to get a variance for signs at Madison Memorial Hospital. John declared a conflict of interest. There is a sign that is already up and he was proposing two more signs. He will replace the existing sign which is 37 square feet. He is proposing two more signs. .The existing hospital sign exceeds the ordinance right now. The two new ones will be installed this fall and will be 74 square feet each. These are the only signs that will be visible to the public day and night. In his mind the sign ordinance will not let him put a sign large enough far the public to turn the corner and have access off Ash because they are changing that location. If you look at any medical facility in the country you will find they need big signs with a lot of visibility and direction. It is a safety issue. A motion was made by Mike Thueson and seconded by Ted Whyte to hold a public hearing for the variance for signs. All Aye except John Watson who abstained. RE: JAhL SITE PLAN REVISION TOPIC: (500,1,,,SIDEWALK,LANDSCAPING,JAIL,.POLICE,PLANS APPROVED} Jail Site Plan Revision- John Watson declared a conflict of interest. He showed the plan that had already been approved and the revised plan. They showed sidewalk, landscaping and a security fence. The county was crowded with the building so the county purchased some adjacent property after the project was bid. What it did was change the dimensions that were on the east between the jail and the Rigby Thatcher property. It made it narrower so in essence he changed the sidewalk and put landscaping instead. He had changed the landscaping and added landscaping. The security section has been changed between the jail and where the city police are housed. He has exceeded the landscape requirement. A motion was made by Mike Thueson that the plan be approved contingent upon Joe's review and recommendation. Seconded by Ted Whyte. All Aye • • • RE: HEALTH AND WELFARE REVISED PLAN REVIEW TOPIC: (500,2,,,4TH NORTH,WALKER*RAY,BARNEY DAIRY ROAD, HEALTH & WELFARE,PLANS APPROVED) Health and Welfare Revised Plan Review. John Watson again declared a conflict of interest. The initial plan had been approved by this board. Joe had a plan to put a road through there but it was not on the plat. He and Stephen met with Ray Walker and Ray agreed to let John make his property more rectilinear and take about 30 feet off the North end. This will allow East 4th North to go through in the future. He showed a 60 feet right-a-way, then a landscape strip and 40 feet curb to curb. Joe corrected him saying it will be an arterial and 50 feet from curb to curb and five foot sidewalks on either side so we can have 4 lanes of traffic with no parking. John stated his assumption is that if you don't need to take property from the photo gallery, you don't need to take any property from him if he gives the city 30 feet. John felt the details could be worked out. This drawing shows that he has 30' x 200' less than he bought. He wants to start grading that site Monday. He is giving the city the opportunity to put the road through, he can still build his building and can still meet his contract with the State of Idaho. He would have to develope some of the road or share the development. He also described a plan that he had thought about. He possibly will make a deal to purchase more broperty to the east and is talking to the owners about it. He described the possibilities of future planning of that area. This will allow the Barney Dairy road to go through. Stephen told them it was important to remember he is doing this as a courtesy to the city. His approval of the plan was given last time. John asked that the city work with him because he had to take time to change the deed on this property that he had already bought. He needs to get this started fast because of the time he has taken to make these changes and would like cooperation with the city and Joe to get the permit in a speedy time frame. A motion was made by Ted Whyte that Joe approve the plan as designed as long as the site plan for the building setback doesn't go into a variance and that he meets the landscape requirements. Seconded by Mike Thueson. All Aye Mary Ann stated that if anyone has anything provisions they feel that needs to be on the Annexation Agreement get them to Rose. RE: BROULIMS SITE PLAN CHANGES TOPIC: (500,2,,,BROULIMS,LANDSCAPING) Joe showed the Broulims Site plan with changes in the landscaping with the islands. They want to eliminate the islands in the landscaping. They will still have enough landscaping. A motion was made by Davawn Beattie to accept the changes. Seconded by John Watson. All Aye Meeting adjourned.
