Roger made a motion to approve the minutes with the noted changes, Ted seconded motion. All voted aye, none opposed. Daniel Clark's request for zone change from Industrial to Highway Business District John Millar reviewed the request and location of the property. There was discussion concerning this request in relation to the Comprehensive Plan and the conditional uses in Highway Business District. Daniel Clark - 111 N. Zna West Daniel has an auto body repair shop and would like to have a used car lot at that location. For the used car lot they need an office, a sign and space, all of which they have now. In order to have a dealership they are required to have parking for a minimum of 7 vehicles. His lot is 134x160 and his shop is 40x60. If he opens the car dealership his plan is to probably cut down on repairs. More discussion on modifying the zoning ordinance to make a car dealership a conditional use in the Industrial zone, which would give some control. Ted feels this would be a better way to go so it didn't turn into a 50 car junk yard. The alternatives of changing the Comprehensive Plan, the zoning, modifying the zoning ordinance or denying the request were discussed. • 1 Plan, the zoning, modifying the zoning ordinance or denying the request were discussed. • Midway on page 27 of the Zoning Ordinance, it was suggested that retail motor vehicles which are permitted in CBD and HBD also be added as conditional in Industrial Mike made a motion to table the Daniel Clark request until such time that the Zoning Ordinance can go through the process of modification to make retail auto sales a conditional use in the .............Industrial. zone. Bobbette seconded the motion, all voted aye, none opposed.

Public Hearing was open Scott Johnson - 5~5 So. 2nd East, Asper Y'illage Scott questioned when this unit would be open and was told the plan is to have the first phase open for the fall. • Van E1g -Rexburg Housing Office Van gave his view of the apartment situation and the Ricks College specula±ion.

SBA Towers' request for Conditional Use Permit John Millar explained the location of the land involved in the Conditional Use Permit which is due east of the water tower approximately 1/4 mile. The proposal is to build a 195' tower at that sight_ Discussion concerning the height of this tower in relation to the water tower. The Airport Board has made a strong stand that nothing be taller than the water tower, which is approximately 120' high Anything built there will need to have FAA approval. 2 • Jessie Lassley - 4424 So. 700 East, Salt Lake City, Utah ~ Jessie represents SBA Towers and was aware they would need FAA Approval and the tower would need lights. This company is a tower building company, not a carrier. They build towers to host 6-7 carriers, they must have at least 3 carriers to begin the tower. .Doug made a motion to send this to public hearing, seconded by Raymond. All voted aye, none opposed. Review of referral from City Council concerning requested modification to Comprehensive Plan. Ted Whyte declared a conflict of interest. Stephen reiterated that this was a review of the referral from City Council concerning the Comprehensive Plan modification. The actual request could be discussed but could not have a decision for at least six months. The City Council held their public hearing, at that time a request for a change to the underlying Comprehensive Plan was submitted. The technical problem of not being able to revisit the Comprehensive Plan only every six months was discussed and we are now part way through the process which would prohibit going back and modifying the plan at this time. At the public hearing for City Council, Councilman Pugmire made a motion to table the request. ,~ He was concerned that the Board may be unaware of the concerns of the neighbors relative to ~ the Comprehensive Plan designating them as commercial. He wanted it to be tabled until such time the P&Z Board could look at the underlying Comprehensive Plan to be certain that the Comprehensive Plan was not inconsistent with what the wishes of the neighborhood were. There was extensive discussion by the Board and was unanimous that the Board as a whole knew the concerns of the neighbors, knew what the Comprehensive Plan stated and they felt it should remain as it stands at this time and needs no further review. Doug made a motion to send this referral back to City Council as it now is. Motion was seconded by Roger, all voted aye, none opposed. Ted Whyte abstained.
