DAKOTA COUNTY PLANNING & ZONING: Tuesday September 23, 2008
A regular meeting was called to order at 7:00 P.M. by President Joe O’Neill and the Pledge of Allegiance was said by all. Present were: Dick McCabe, Dick McNear, Marlan Millard, Neil Miller, Joe O’Neill and Marty Rohde. Also present: Dakota County Commissioner Jackie Hartnett, Dakota County Attorney Kim Watson, and Ed Lewon, Dennis Reinert, Lue Franco, and Matt Roost.
Moved by Dick McNear, second by Neil Miller to approve minutes for the August meeting. Motion carried. Jim Jepsen arrived at 7:05p.m.
First item on the agenda was Matt Roost. He is sectioning off the building site from the rest of his Grandparents farm to buy the house. He only has 4.77 acres because of a road, 2 creeks and a neighboring fence line. With this being an existing acreage and having natural borders the Board could see no problems with approving it even though it was less than 5 acres. The existing site was grandfathered in. A motion was made by Dick McNear second by Martin Rohde. Roll Call vote unanimous. Motion carried. Matt was asked to fill out an Informational Statement to send into the assessor’s office.
Second item on the agenda Ed Lewon to discuss adding another storage building to his business site along Hwy 20. He spoke with Dan Sayre from the State of Nebraska about his 90foot setback and said he would be back far enough from the Hwy. Ed will also have to put in a grade and rock that. There is a drainage ditch by the Hwy so the water would drain in the ditch and not on the Hwy. The board discussed the rest of his boundaries and told him as long as he was able to establish his proper setbacks he can go ahead with it.
Next item was to review and recommendation of Planning Administrator resumes. There were a total of 4 applicants. The board discussed and reviewed their resumes. Motion was made by Jim Jepsen second by Neil Miller to recommend Joe Conley to the Board of Commissioners to be the Planning & Zoning Administrator. Joe Conley would contract with the County through the city of South Sioux City. Roll call vote: aye, Jim Jepsen, Dick McCabe, Neil Miller, Joe O’Neill, Martin Rohde; nay, Dick McNear and Marlan Millard. Motion carried. Specifics of the contract will be worked out at a later date with the city of South Sioux City and the county. If the Planning and Zoning Board does not like the contract, they will go back and look at the other resumes and start over finding a new Administrator.
Last item on the agenda was to review the bylaws. Jim Jepsen recommended that it be put on future agendas to continually be going over the book. Joe O’Neill also requested that everyone go over the bylaws and come to the next meeting with suggestions of areas in the book to cover.
Motion made by Marlan Millard, second by Marty Rohde to adjourn. Motion carried. Meeting was duly adjourned at 7:38 P.M. Respectfully submitted,
Jolene Gubbels
