Absent: Commissioner Woestehoff. <br /> 5.04: Public Hearing: Review Draft Comprehensive Plan Update <br /> Public Hearing <br /> Chairperson Bauer called the public hearing to order at 7:38 p.m. <br /> Presentation <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill presented the staff report stating staff is not asking for <br /> action on this draft at this time. Based on a number of requests that have come in since the April 9 <br /> Workshop, Staff requests additional time to update drafts. The Public Hearing was previously <br /> advertised, and Staff recommends taking this opportunity to take additional public comments on <br /> the current drafts. It was noted staff will be updating this case with updates to Chapters and <br /> additional materials to help the Planning Commission navigate this document. The focus has been <br /> organization and content. The document will be formatted into a final design prior to final <br /> approval. Staff provided the Commission with a broad overview on the draft Comprehensive Plan, <br /> along with the key implementation strategies and requested feedback. <br /> Citizen Input <br /> Commissioner VanScoy asked if staff had considered pursuing additional east-west roadways <br /> through the City. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill commented staff was aware that additional east-west <br /> roadway connections were needed in the community. He explained Green Valley may be a route <br /> the City could pursue in the future. <br /> Patrick Lindmark,AKM Farms, requested the City extend the MUSA line into his property. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill reviewed the location of the existing MUSA line, <br /> noting lines currently ran halfway up Puma Street. <br /> Commissioner Anderson asked if lines could be extended into Mr. Lindmark's property. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill reported the lines do have capacity to complete this <br /> task. He explained additional discussion would have to be held to see if this extension could be <br /> completed. He discussed the history of the Northfork property and indicated there were some staff <br /> members that believed this land should remain rural in nature. <br /> Commissioner Anderson anticipated that Mr. Lindmark would have to have a conversation with <br /> the adjacent landowner in order for this MUSA extension to be considered. He believed this matter <br /> should be looked at further in order for direction to be included within the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> Planning Commission/May 3,2018 <br /> Page 6 of 11 <br />
