Chairman [Vhitte called for discussion. Commissioner Willhoit stated he felt at least - one cul-de-sac in this subdivision, Tupello Lane, was too short to be given a unique street name and suggested the planning staff so advise the developer.

Agenda Item 14C: Preliminary Plan, Stoneycreek, Phase I. The subdivision officer reviewed the proposed plat. The Commissioners ex- pressed concern over a subdivision being located so near an active hog farming operation. They felt future property owners would feel the farming operation a nuisance and might take legal action against its owners at a later time. Mr. Mount, representing the property owner, J. A. Fine, agreed to a disclosure statement giving notice of the nature of the adjoining farm operation being affixed to the final plat. The Board further expressed its concern over the number of driveway entrances to State Road 1723 and requested the planning staff suggest some alternate arrangements to the Planning Board. Commissioner Willhoit moved approval of this preliminary plat. Commissioner Gustaveson offered a second. Vote: ayes 4 and noes 0. Commissioner Willhoit raised the question of what was actually happening to the suggestions the Board of Commissioners had been making in the past to the Planning Board concerning preliminary plats? Has the planning staff and board been able to achieve their implementation? He feels there should be significant interaction between the developer, planning staff and Health Department in laying out the final plat so the most desirable development pattern possible might be achieved. ~~~ ~ ~ t,,a.[.-e~ / 0 3 a.w~~ !r"."'f ^`~'~ G' -~v+-~. ~e~,rkrn iya~w.+.( ~.~~•~ Agenda Item 15: Gommissioner W' lhoit moved the request of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Bane to rezone° acres shown as part of Eno Township, Tax Map 26, Parcle 35 from residential to general commercial be approved. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Gustaveson. Chairmman Whitted called for discussion. He raised the question, what can be done to upgrade the section of road connecting this property with Old No. 10 and US 70? Commissioner Gustaveson asked the planning staff how general commercial zoning would fit into the general land use pattern of this area? They responded, very well, general land use plans call for this area to support a variety of uses. As this area adjoins other light industrial uses .and. zonings, no land use conflict is apparent. Chairman Whitted called for a vote. There were 4 ayes and 0 noes. Agenda Item 16: Consideration of amendment to the Subdivision Ordinance. Commissioner Willhoit moved consideration of this item be postponed until the Board's September 5th meeting. Commissioner Pinney seconded this motion. Vote: ayes, 4 and noes 0.• Agenda Ttem 20: The Manager reported he was advertising far bids to replace a boiler at the Northside Multi-Purpose Center. This work is estimated to cost in the neighborhood of $15,000. No specific funds were appropriated in the budget to cover this item. He was therefore proposing to charge this work to general repairs. Only $42,000 was allocated for this purpose. This job will consume about one-third of the annual appropriation for this purpose. The Board advised the Manager to proceed with this work. The meeting was adjourned. Richard Whitted, Chairman Sam Gattis, Acting Clerk
