Richard Pearson, Mary Harker, Pete Anderson, Gayle Anderson,
Council Member, Steve England; Attorney Tom Holmes, Public Works
Director Steve Smart, and Secretary Myrna Crapo.
Chairman Kent Kearns called the meeting to order at 8:00 p.m.
Chairman Kearns asked for approval of the minutes of October 7,
1993. Myrna Cain moved to approve the minutes with Mary Harker
seconding. All voted in favor.
PUBLIC HEARING:
Chairman Kearns asked if any of the commission members had a
conflict of interest. There was none.
1. A PROPOSAL BY K. G. GI BBS , 426 E. CHUBBUCK FOR A CHANGE IN
LAND USE DISTRICT TO INDUSTRIAL (I) FOR PROPERTY IN THE NE4
NE4 SECTION 10 township 6 south range 34 E.B.M. (435 E.
Chubbuck Road). Property is presently zoned Limited
Residential. (R-2).
Chairman Kearns opened the public hearing. K. G. Gibbs, 426
E. Chubbuck Road addressed the commission and told them that
he was building utility and snowmobile trailers and that it
was a father and son operation. He bought the ground this
year and has cleaned the place up.
Keith Robinson, 1113 Booth Road represented himself, his wife
and a widow who owned land to the west of the Gibbs property.
If Parrish property railroad tie salvage yard would continue
indefinitely they would have little objection to the proposal.
But they are circulating a petition against the tie salvage
yard. This rezoning would encourage same type as at the
salvage yard. He would like the city to deny this zoning
change.
Chairman Kearns closed the public testimony and presented it
to the commission for discussion:
Steve Smart explained that the comprehensive plan described a
line separating residential and industrial zones. There is a
gray area of one block or maximum of 500 feet, that needs to
be defined.
-101` Mr. Gibbs told the commission that he lived across the street
from this residence.

Mr. Smart explained to the commission that they were asking
for it to be industrial instead of commercial use because
commercial use is not shown in the comprehensive plan.
Attorney Tom Holmes told the commission that we were defining
exactly where that line is. It has some implications for
Gibbs and the Parrish property.
The commission then discussed:
1. It would be spot zoning.
2. The only way to do the change would be to define
comprehensive plan at one block 400 feet.
3. The decision would establish the location of that
separation.
Richard Pearson moved to recommend to the city council that we
deny the zoning of the property at 435 East Chubbuck Road to
industrial to allow the continuation of the trailer
manufacture site. Steve England seconded with roll call vote:
Myrna Cain, abstain; Richard Pearson, yes; Pete Anderson, yes;
Kent Kearns, yes; Mary Harker, yes; Gayle Anderson, no; Steve
England, yes.
2. A PROPOSAL BY DAVID B. WAITMAN, 5039 HAWTHORNE FOR A
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A USED CAR SALES at 4951
Yellowstone Avenue. Property is presently zoned C-2.
David B. Waitman, 5309 Hawthorne, the car sales would be
across the street from Parish's car lot and would have
approximately 50 cars. Charlie Frasure owns the property and
they will not pave it.
Steve Stone, 224 W. Sherman #6, a partner to Mr. Waitman
explained that they would clean up the lot. If needed they
could camouflage the gravel piles and dirt that Charlie
Frasure had put there. Their used car sales lot would be in
front of it.
They plan on putting lighting back by the office and may
convert the garage into an office. They might bring in an
office building and put in front of the garage.
Charlie Frasure would put in a sprinkler system and haul
gravel for them.
Doug Smith, 4937 Yellowstone, asked if there would be rest
rooms there. He would like to see good lighting also.
Chairman Kearns closed the public hearing portion and opened
it to the commission for discussion.

GENERAL BUSINESS:
1. A REQUEST BY JOLENE HUTCHISON, 815 EL RANCHO, FOR A WAIVER OF
PLATTING REQUIREMENTS FOR STORAGE UNITS at 400 East Chubbuck
Road across from the tie yard.
David Hutchinson, 1054 E. Maple the son of Jolene Hutchinson
addressed the commission. The property has 4.79 acres and
1.79 acres will be for R.V. storage. A security fence will be
put around the total area, except for the 10' green way up
front. The residential side would have a screening fence.
There would be no paving between structures, just slag.
Paving the area could cause a drainage problem. They would
put in interior lighting. One unit at a time would be build,
each additional unit as money became available.
Public Works director Steve Smart explained that the
comprehensive plan shows the extension of Eagle through this
land. He was not aware of this until just the last few days.
The commission discussed with the Hutchison's and their
neighbors the following:
1. Developers putting in a road
2. P.U. D. of Paul Jensen's having two access.

approval of waiver of platting.
