,I <br /> ' 79 <br /> (3) Use of Historic Sites <br /> Presentation by Mary Willis. <br /> This item is to consider a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to include <br /> historic property as well as structures in the consideration of Special Use permits for <br /> non-residential use of historic structures. <br /> The Ordinance Review Committee considered the proposed amendments on April 4, <br /> and recommended that they be advertised for public hearing on May 28, 1996. <br /> The Planning Staff recommends that the proposed amendments be advertised for <br /> public hearing on May 28, 1996. <br /> Willis noted that this is a technical amendment which states that the entire site,not <br /> just the structure,is considered historic. <br /> MOTION: Hoecke moved approval of the recommendation of the Planning Staff that the <br /> Zoning Ordinance Amendments be advertised for public hearing on May 28, 1996. <br /> Seconded by Rosemond. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. <br /> c. Subdivision Regulations Teat Amendments <br /> (1) Recordation of Plats <br /> Presentation by Mary Willis.. <br /> This item is to consider a proposed amendment to the Subdivision Regulations <br /> which would delete the requirement for a Planning Staff member to be present each <br /> time a final plat is recorded in the Register of Deeds Office. <br /> The Subdivision Regulations require approved final plats for major and minor <br /> subdivisions to be recorded in the presence of the Planning Department to assure that <br /> all required documents associated with the Final Plat are recorded as well. This <br /> requires a Planning Staff member to go to the Register of Deeds Office each time a <br /> final plat is recorded. This process is time consuming for the Planning Staff member <br /> as well as the applicant and has not been the practice of the Planning Department. A <br /> system has been developed that provides the Register of Deeds with a list of items to <br /> be recorded with the final plat thereby alleviating the need for a Planning Staff <br /> member to be present. <br /> The Ordinance Review Committee considered the proposed amendments on April 4 <br /> and recommended that they be advertised for public hearing on May 28, 1996. <br /> The Planning Staff recommends that the proposed amendments be advertised for <br /> public hearing on May 28, 1996. <br /> MOTION: Howie moved approval of the Planning Staff recommendation. Seconded by Price. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. <br />
