substantial amount of dollars as development in the area occurs.
Mayor Hawks noted that this approach helps to direct where development will take
place, which is something the City has been attempting to do. He then asked if installa-
tion of sewer lines in these same locations has been considered.
Director of Public Service Forbes responded that existing sewer trunk mains in that
immediate area can be extended to provide sewer service when needed. He noted that wa-
ter is the main concern at this time.
City Manager Wysocki indicated that staff will bring back a contract for the engi-
neering services for the water trunk lines as soon as possible.
The Mayor thanked Director of Public Service Forbes for his presentation.
Staff report re options for installation of sidewalk along South Third Avenue from Graf
Street to Kagy Boulevard
City Manager Wysocki submitted to the Commission a memo from Director of Public
Service Forbes providing several options for installation of sidewalk along South Third Av-
enue from Graf Street to Kagy Boulevard.
The Director of Public Service briefly highlighted his memo. He stated that, staff
as identified three options for the installation of sidewalks on the east side of South Third
Avenue between Graf Street and Kagy Boulevard. (1) City - ordered sidewalk, in which the
adjacent property owners would be ordered to pay the costs, with the City paying any
costs which exceed 1.5 times normal installation costs; (2) a limited extended SID for side-
walk improvements only, which would encompass lots in Westridge, Thompson's Third and
Graf's Third Subdivisions to pay a majority of the costs on a per -lot basis, and Spring
Meadows Subdivision to make a small contribution based on a previously - signed waiver of
right to protest the creation of an SID for these improvements; and (3) an extended SID
to improve South Third Avenue to a full collector street standard, which includes those
subdivisions identified in No. 2, above, plus Figgins; Westfield, Phases I and II; Wood-
ridge Subdivision; and the unplatted Westfield, Graf's Fourth, and Allison Annexations
plus the school property.
The Director then suggested that, due to the short timeframe available in this af-
ternoon's meeting, he would respond to questions rather than making a more comprehensive
presentation.
Commissioner Swanson asked if there is any design work completed to date that
would fit into Option No. 3.
The Director responded that only design work for the sidewalk has been completed
to date; and it would allow the sidewalk to interact with the probable future design of the
roadway. He then noted it would not necessarily be ideal to install the sidewalk first,

proposed options. He noted that more information must be provided to the potentially af-
fected property owners; and it would be beneficial if he knew which way the Commission
was leaning prior to disseminating the information to those individuals.
Commissioner Frost stated support for Option No. 1 ; Commissioner Swanson stated
support for Option No. 3, then No. 2, then No. 1; Commissioner Knapp stated she would
be most comfortable with Option No. 2, noting that Option No. 3 would really be the opti-
mum; Mayor Hawks stated support for Option No. 2; and Commissioner Goehrung stated he
feels it is imperative to pursue Option No, 1, although he feels it would be beneficial to
utilize Option No. 2 if that funding mechanism can be implemented and the work completed
prior to the opening of the new elementary school.
Responding to Commissioner Swanson, the Director stated that if it seems most ap-
propriate to hold a public meeting with the potentially affected property owners, he will do
SO.
Responding to Commissioner Frost, the Director indicated that to utilize the SID
process, the necessary steps must be started around December 1. He noted that the com-
pletion date varies, depending on the option utilized; however, the project would be com-
plete by the opening of school.
The Commission thanked the Director for his presentation.
Staff report re tax increment financing options
(a) tax increment financing industrial district
(b) urban renewal
The City Manager submitted to the Commission a staff report, dated October 10,
regarding tax increment financing options, along with some support information on such
districts.
Assistant to the City Manager Ron Brey reviewed the information provided in his
staff report. He noted that,
attached to his
report, are copies of two proposed ordinances
and one proposed resolution,
which will be
placed on next week's agenda
for Commission
action. He then reviewed the two programs
which he has outlined in his
memo, the first
being the creation of a tax increment
financing
industrial district (TIFID)
and the second
being a determination on the
desirability and
feasibility of establishing an
urban renewal
tax increment financing (TIF)
program.
Assistant Brey stated
that the 1889
Legislature adopted legislation
which provides
for the creation of a tax increment financing industrial district. He stated that under this
legislation, a TIFID may be applied to any industrially zoned areas of the community which
are under- serviced or under - utilized. He noted that additional infrastructure can be
provided to the area through this program; and it is designed to encourage secondary,
value -added industries to locate or relocate into that district.

asked to prepare a set of specific guidelines for evaluating and responding to specific prn-
pnsa|s. He noted that such guidelines would require approval by the Commission before
they could be uU|ized. He further suggested that a policy for amending districts or cre-
ating subsequent districts would be appropriate.
Further responding to the Mayor Assistant Brey stated that an urban renewal dis-
trict and a tax increment financing industrial district may not overlap, and a tax increment
financing industrial district may not include non-connected areas under the State statutes.
The Commission thanked Assistant Drey for his presentation, noting they would
consider action on the ordinances and resolution at next week's meeting.
Discussion revision f faoa ch arged
City Manager Wysocki reminded the Commission that this item was requested by
Commissioner Frost.
Commissioner Frost stated that following discussion with Planning Director Epy|m'
he feels it is important to review and revise the fees charged by the Planning Department.
He noted that this is an issue which has been brought up at Planning Board meetings on a
regular basis over the past two years. He noted that, duo to staff time cuostraints, the
issue has never been adequately addressed. He then proposed that the Commission direct
the Planning Board through the Planning Director, to develop a new [ua schedule which
more adequately covers the costs involved. He further noted that for some of the major
development reviows, the taxpayers of the communities have incurred thousands of dollars
of those costa; and he also feels that the fees for many of the "weekend" projects are
much too high.
Commissioner Swanson suggested that with the amount of activity which is taking
place in the Planning office during this comment period on the final zone code, it may be
more appropriate to delay this review of the fee schedule until after the public hearing
process has been completed.
Commissioner Frost stated an interest in seeing the request forwarded immediately,
noting that it will not actually be started for several weeks anyway.
Commissioner Swanson asked if this request should be made more formally than just
through o motion and vote. He then suggested that a memo providing more specific dirac-
tion mentioning issues like the h:o for "weekend" projects, might be beneficial.
Commissioner Frost stated his willingness to prepare such a memo.
It was moved by Commissioner Swanson, seconded by Commissioner Knapp, that the
Commission refer the issue of revising fees charged by the Planning Department to the
City-County Planning Board, for their review and recommendation. The motion carried by
the following Aye and No vote: those voting Aye being Commissioner Swanson, commix-

those amendments which the Commission feels can be completed to meet the November 12
and November 25 public hearings before the Planning Board and the City Commission, re-
spectively, will be included in this initial group. He noted that the Commission may
identify other potential amendments which require more time and study before being for-
warded through the process; and they will follow the normal channels for zone code
amendments at the appropriate times.
The Mayor stated that this afternoon, Commissioners will pare the list of proposed
amendments down to those which will be forwarded through the 90 -day process. He stated
this is not a public hearing; therefore, public comment will be limited. He noted that sub -
mitters, however, will be given an opportunity to clarify their proposals if they feel that
the Commissioners have misinterpreted their written statements.
Planning Director Andy Epple submitted to the Commission a memo, dated October
15, in which he had "sorted" the comments received into four proposed categories for Com-
mission consideration. He then briefly highlighted each of those four categories, as fol-
lows:
Category 1 - those comments which staff feels can be eliminated from further
consideration by the Commission because (1) the amendment would create a
provision in the zone code which is not in substantial compliance with the
Master Plan; (2) the provision had always been a part of the zone code (of-
ten based on statutory authority); (3) it appears to represent a misinterpre-
tation by the submi'tter; or (4) the amendment would conflict with the intent
and purpose of the zone code.
Category 2 - those comments which staff feels can be addressed through mi-
nor language modifications to the code, and which do not represent "sub-
stantive" changes in policy direction. These comments are generally clari-
fications of language and could be forwarded for public hearing during this
ninety -day review process.
Category 3 - those comments which represent substantive changes to the
code, but which appear to reflect a consensus among submitters, staff and
the Commission. These comments should be forwarded through the amend-
ment process; however, they cannot be adequately addressed and accom-
modated through this initial ninety--day review process.
Category 4 - those comments which represent substantive changes in policy
direction, about which (1) there does not appear to be consensus or (2)
staff needs more time to evaluate and develop viable working solutions.
These comments need a substantial amount of additional work and, therefore,
will not be ready for further consideration as soon as the other categories.
The Planning Director stated that, due to time constraints, he has been able to
complete comments on only Categories 1 and 2 in this memo; and staff comments on Cat-
egories 3 and 4 will be forthcoming prior to next week's meeting. He noted that during
discussions, it will be important to consider this listing in conjunction with the staff's
technical comments contained in memos dated October 4 and October 7, 1991,
Mayor Hawks suggested that if two Commissioners support the furthering of a
particular amendment, it should be. He noted that during the public hearing process, it
is possible that a third Commissioner will be swayed to agree; and the amendment could
then be approved.

Commissioner Swanson suggested that the public should know when and where the
Development Review Committee meets, and what their responsibilities are.
The Commission concurred in the Planning Director's assessment that a lay person
should not be included on the DRC.
3. Lot width.
Planning Director Epple stated that this section of the code specifies that a lot must
be a minimum of 25 feet wide at the building setback line, which is typically 25 feet in a
residential district. He stated that the individuals who have forwarded this proposed zone
code amendment are concerned about lots located on cul -de -sacs which might have street
frontages of less than 25 feet. He then suggested that this section, as written, is appro-
priate, and that this amendment was proposed due to a misinterpretation.
The Commission concurred no revisions should be considered.
9.b. Planning Board versus DRB recommendations on deviations.
The Commission concurred this item should be eliminated.
5. Reviews on developments lying wholly or partially within an overlay district.
The Planning Director stated that the code includes a provision for artificial lots,
which he feels would adequately address the concerns raised under this proposed amend-
ment. He suggested that any development in the interior of a parcel, outside the overlay
district boundaries, would not be subjected to this review.
The Planning Director stated that a question has been raised about whether an en-
tire Planned Unit Development would be subjected to this review if a portion of it lies
within the overlay district. He then suggested that it would be, since development of the
entire parcel would be subjected to the same review process.
Mr. Joe Sabol stated that he does not disagree with the logic; however, he does not
feel that development of an entire parcel should be subjected to the overlay review process
just because ten feet of the property lies within the district.
Responding to Mayor Hawks, the Planning Director stated he feels the applicant can
control the situation by placing his "development" of the site outside the district bounda-
ry. He then suggested that if the Commission wishes to address this item, it should be
placed in Category 3, since it will take more time to complete than the 90 -day process al-
lows.
Commissioner Frost noted that the overlay district extends 660 feet back from major
entryways and 330 feet back from minor entryways. He then asked, for reference, how
deep the K -Mart lot is; the Planning Director estimated it is 1,000 feet deep.
Commissioner Frost and Mayor Hawks suggested this item would be worth further
review.
The Planning Director stated that he will move this comment to Category 3.

The Commission concurred.
30. Lids on garbage bin,.
The Planning Director stated there is no requirement in the zone code pertaining to
lids on garbage bins. He then suggested that this comment might have been directed to-
ward the requirement for trash enclosures in the downtown area.
The Commission concurred in staff's recommendation.
sJ. Variances and water course setbacks.
Planning Director Epp|e stated that the provision for variances is already encoded
in the zone code document; and he umcs not feel it needs to be carried into all of the oth-
er sections whore it may be applicable.
The Commission concurred.
m. Variances and screening requirements.
The Commission concurred in staff's recommendation.
40' Backing into alleys.
The Planning Director stated that staff feels it is important that a minimum of 26
feet be provided from the haoh of a parking stall to the other side of an alley for safety
purposes. He noted that alleys are typically 20 feet wide/ therefore, the back of a park-
ing space must be six feet inside the property line. He then stated that this applies to
residential properties. He noted that commercial properties (which includes four-p|exes
and up) may gain access through an alley; however, backing into the alley from those
properties is not alloweo. He then cited City Hall as an example of the problems that
arise when vehicles at commercial establishments back into an alley.
Commissioner Swanson suggested rolling this proposed revision into Category z, for
the purpose of clarifying the language to specifically reflect what the Director has ver-
balized.
Mr. Keith Swenson stated that it is one thing to look at a non-scale drawing which
shows the location of a parking space adjacent to an a||*y, and quite another thing to see
how this provision actually impacts a site. He then stated support for placing this in
Category 2 or Category S and given further consideration "in terms of real dimensions,"
The City Manager suggested that, rather than a code change, it might be more ap-
propriate to consider variances to this requirement, even if there are several involved.
Mr' Roger Craft stated that one issue which has been raised is the possibility of
eliminating the downtown commercial district from this provision.
The Planning Director suggested that excepting the re-use of structures in the
downtown core area might he adequate to address those concerns.
The Mayor noted that backing into alleys from commercial sites is not limited to the
downtown core only, but extends to the entryways as we/i. He then suggested that this

distinction between variances and deviations, which he feels is adequately addressed in the
code as written.
Mr. Joe Sabo[ stated the issue is a question of how much superior a design has to
be to support a deviation.
Commissioner Frost noted that the deviation process was incorporated into the code
to provide the flexibility that people had requested. He further noted that the 20- percent
limit in the new code should be helpful.
Mayor Hawks suggested that the design objective plans should help to address that
question.
The Commission concurred in the staff recommendation.
53. Agricultural exemption.
The Planning Director stated that the County may regulate agricultural operations;
however, under municipal zoning, there is no option for restricting agricultural buildings.
He then stated that to re- instate this provision would create a conflict with the Uniform
Building Code, which the City has adopted.
The Commission concurred with the staff recommendation.
65. Elimination of sign amortization.
The Planning Director stated that an amortization schedule is essential and neces-
sary to ensure reasonable compliance with the sign code. He then noted that this is a
high[y- charged political issue, which needs careful consideration. He stated that several
comments were received on the sign code; and he feels some of those issues and policy de-
cisions, such as reconsideration of the sliding timeframe, should be considered under
Category 4.
Commissioner Swanson noted one of the predominant messages received during this
process is that business owners want a "level playing field." He stated that without an
amortization schedule, he does not feel that can be accomplished.
The Commission concurred in the staff recommendation.
Keith Swenson /Roger Craft comments
Section 18.040.010 - Definition of "deviation."
The Director stated concurrence with the removal of "or variation" from the defini-
tion, to avoid more potential for confusion between "deviations" and "variances ". He stat-
ed, however, that staff does not concur with the proposal to delete reference to overlay
districts, since deviations are not available outside those districts.
Responding to Mayor Hawks, Mr. Roger Craft suggested this proposed revision
would not reflect a major change. He then stated that under this amendment, projects
outside the overlay districts would be subjected to the same procedure as those within the
overlay districts for consistency.

ed that the code currently contains criteria, not standards. He then proposed a language
change to replace "shall be considered" to "must conform with the following ". He further
suggested that the language in the criteria might need additional consideration.
The Planning Director stated that staff is attempting to address this issue through
other avenues. He then suggested that this particular amendment be eliminated; the Com-
mission concurred.
Section 18.10.040 - Lot coverage.

in keeping with the intent of the basic code; therefore, this proposed amendment should
be eliminated.

CATEGORY 2
Joe Sabol comments
4.a. Modify definition of deviation.
The Planning Director stated that this proposed amendment would reverse the lan-
guage in the code from a negative to a positive context. He suggested that the revised
language "However, deviations from physical standards of the code may be granted by the
Commission." could easily be inserted.
The Commission concurred.
6. Application of regulations.
The Planning Director stated the current language is standard for a zone code. He
suggested that to specify that "compliance with the regulations herein specified" does not
