8. COUNCIL BUSINESS <br />8.01: Adopt Resolution #24-285 approving a variance and encroachment agreement for a <br />lean-to structure and concrete slab at 6850 148th Lane NW (Michael Ploumen) <br />Planning Manager Larson reviewed the Staff report in regard to a variance and an encroachment <br />agreement request for a lean-to structure and concrete slab at 6850 148th Lane. He shared the <br />Planning Commission's recommendation of approval. <br />Motion by Councilmember Howell, seconded by Councilmember Olson, to adopt Resolution #24- <br />285 approving a variance to side yard setback and an encroachment agreement for a lean-to <br />structure and concrete slab at 6850 148th Lane NW. <br />Further discussion: <br />Councilmember Woestehoff said he will not be voting in favor of this. He shared he would have <br />been supportive if it was just for approval of the concrete slab; however, having a structure that <br />close to the property line makes him nervous for future neighbors. <br />Councilmember Riley stated this structure does not have walls on it which makes it different from <br />the other request they had recently seen similar to this one. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Councilmembers Howell, Olson, Musgrove Riley, and Specht. <br />Voting No: Mayor Kuzma and Councilmember Woestehoff. <br />8.02: Introduce Ordinance #24-13 Amending Section 106-105, Definition of Manufacturing <br />Planning Manager Larson reviewed the Staff report concerning amending City Code and the <br />definition of Manufacturing to include State -regulated cannabis cultivation. He shared the <br />Planning Commission's recommendation of approval. <br />Councilmember Howell asked if this would allow other things to be grown in pots and dirt or just <br />cannabis. <br />Planning Manager Larson explained that other crops that will be grown in dirt do not really need <br />the same kind of security that these buildings offer, and this growing could take place out in a <br />field. <br />Motion by Councilmember Woestehoff, seconded by Councilmember Riley, to waive the City <br />Charter requirement to read the ordinance aloud and introduce Ordinance #24-13 amending <br />Section 106-105 Zoning Code Definitions. <br />A roll call vote was performed: <br />Councilmember Musgrove nay <br />Councilmember Riley aye <br />City Council / October 8, 2024 <br />Page 8 of 10 <br />
