Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon explained development will still be <br />allowed, but it needs to be set up to allow sewer and water in the future. There would only be <br />sewer and water on part of the land and the other part would stay vacant. <br /> <br />Councilmembcr Cook explained there are some areas that were developed in a way that does not <br />allow fei' good subdivision when sewer and water comes through. The City is trying to make this <br />more feasible in the fi~ture and the ordinance will set up different ways it can be done. In the <br />long run it would make the land more valuable to a developer. <br /> <br />Motion by Councihnember Cook, seconded by Councilmember Elvig, to close the public <br />hearing. <br /> <br />Motion carried.

He <br />explained as staff works through the ordinance they will run the ordinance through the Planning <br />Commission for a recommendation to the City Council. <br /> <br />Councihnember Elvig explained this is a planning issue and the City is trying to freeze the <br />picture and get ahead of these issues to do proper planning for effective and efficient use of the <br />propcrty in the long run. Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon came up with <br />this idea and it is a great concept to get ahead of the planning process. <br /> <br />Councihncmbcr Pearson stated this will be good for the landowners and the developers coining <br />ill. <br /> <br />City Council/April 27, 2004 <br /> Page 10 of 35 <br /> <br /> <br />
