Berning explained to the Commission that due to the weather
and current road conditions, he had instructed Ann to contact City
Planner David Licht and inform him that his appearance would be
postponed until the January 26, 1993 meeting.
Berning opened discussion on the proposed Adult Use Ordinance,
specifically with regard to possible locations for same. The
Commission decided to table further discussion on this matter until
the January 26th meeting when Licht would be in attendance.
The revised amendment to Ordinance No. 1988-12 with regard to
fire hydrants was addressed next. As requested by the City
Council, Commission considered who would be responsible for snow
removal. The Commission stated that it was never their intent to
change the City's responsibility for snow removal. The Commission
feels that for safety reasons, the City should continue to be
responsible for snow removal around hydrants and was in agreement
with the insertion of (c) regarding this issue, as submitted in
their agenda packets.
Ann stated that Maintenance Foreman, Ken Lindsay, had
questioned (b) restricting placement of items within a 5' diameter
of hydrants. Lindsay asked Ann to inform the Commission that the
equipment used to clear the hydrants has an 8' blade and many are
10'. The Commission felt that a 10' diameter was too restrictive
to City residents.
Johnson made a motion

Berning next opened discussion of the City Council's request
for a job description of the Planning Commission. The Commission
was confused as to exactly what the Council wanted and decided to
table further discussion until such time as Mayor Potter clarified
this with Berning.
A possible ordinance amendment regarding the facade of pole
buildings was discussed next. The new members were not familiar
with this issue and requested that Kevin Mealhouse attend the next
meeting in order to clarify this matter for them. The Commission
would also like input from Licht regarding this. The Commission
directed Ann to contact Mealhouse and advise him that the
Commission would like him to attend the meeting on January 26th at
8:00 PM.
The City Council has requested that the Planning Commission
consider placing a moratorium on new construction of multi-family
housing. The Commission would like input from Licht regarding this
matter and will discuss it with him at the January 26th meeting.
Larson made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 8: 15 PM.
Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted aye.
