The Chairman called the meeting to order.
Mr. Riley first presented some alternative methods to
address large lot subdivision. Mr. Riley stated that the staff would
like to work in the direction of establishing certain rural centers
within the County as service centers for surrounding rural areas,
explaining that around these service centers would be established
agricultural - residential zones where some limited subdivision of land
would be permitted.
Chairman Gordon questioned whether this proposal or others
should be considered first.
A general discussion ensued in which the Commission expressed
its desire that the staff proceed to explore the service center
approach. The Commission, however, decided to consider an interim
proposal.
A discussion ensued regarding previous proposals that had
been considered.
Mr. Stiles expressed an interest in the amendment proposal

that was presented to the Board previously.
By general consensus, the Planning Commission instructed
the staff to examine this proposal, confer with the Department of
Public Works and report back to the Commission at their next worksession.
Mr. Riley next presented drafts of new M -1 and M -2 Zoning
Districts and performance standards.
Mr. Golladay presented a number of concerns dealing with
the requirements for permitted uses.
A discussion ensued about the advisability of permitting
truck terminals within M -1 zones.
By general consensus, the Planning Commission decided to
exclude truck terminals from M -1 zones and place them in M -2 zones.
The Commission instructed staff to make this change and to consider
Mr. Golladay's comments in a reconsideration of certain aspects of the
draft.
There being no further business to come before the Planning
Commission, Mr. Venksoske made a motion to adjourn. This was seconded
by Mr. Golladay and passed unaimously.
