Brandenburg explained that the staff has reviewed the input received from the Planning
and Zoning Commission and Council at the Workshop on January 30. They will seek
Council's response tonight and be prepared to bring back a first reading at the Council
Meeting on February 25, with the second reading being on March 11.
It was determined that the issues will be brought to Council at first reading as
recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission, giving Council the opportunity to
discuss and amend, if desired.
Pfiester suggested that each of the items listed on the table provided with the agenda
item be separated into the following three categories: (1) Clean up, if all Council agrees;
(2) Put off for six months; and (3) unresolved and will require an individual vote at the first
reading. He asked that the clean-up items be enumerated and brought back for
deliberation at the first reading.
There was discussion as to how to qualify each issue. The following determinations
were made:
(1) Clean Upon Items 74-a (*as corrected by Pfiester at the 2-28-03 Council Meeting), 6, 7, 10,
11, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, & 32.
(2) Bring back in six months, Items 1, is (*as corrected by Pfiester at the 2-28-03 Council
Meeting), 2, 28, & 29. (Item 2 is not to be a part of the UDC.)

(3) Unresolved and requiring a vote, on Items 1 b, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 14, 16, 17, 27, 30, & 31.
Yantis noted that the language to be brought back to Council at first reading will be
the same as in Draft #3 for all items except 9, 14, and 31. He said 9 will be left out
completely, and if someone wants to make a motion to amend the adopting
ordinance to include a six-month provision, they can do so, #14 will be the language
as it is currently in the existing subdivision ordinance. He said the language in #31
didn't exist in Draft #3 for the all-weather driving surface, but will be included with a
note that it may need to be modified. Carls said the review language will be left out
completely for Council to determine how they want it to read.
