PUBLIC HEARING
1. Applicant, City of Chubbuck, proposes an ordinance adding, amending or repealing text
in chapters 17.08, 17.12 and 18.20, of Municipal Code, Type of Action: Recommendation
to City Council.
Hillam wished Andrus a Happy Birthday.
Hillam addressed the board regarding the changes to the ordinance.
Mendenhall asked for an explanation on 18.20.
Hillam explained this is a proposition to repeal in its entirety 18.20.060 E that requires 100
square feet of usable private space in a residential planned unit development.
Burch commented that every application that has asked for this waiver it has been granted. It is
a burden for both City Council and Land Use. On numerous occasions City Council members
have voiced doing away with the waiver.
Holmes decided if section 17 was going to be changed via this amendment why not include
chapter 18.20.060 E.
The changes to the remainder of section 18 will be an upcoming agenda item.
Mendenhall would like to see more open space for residents when the adjustments to the
remaining section 18 are made.
