GENERAL BUSINESS
Discussion on the Statutory Framework Governing the Decision -Making Process in
Idaho.
Planning and Development Director Devin Hillam went over the statutory framework
governing Legislative and Quasi -Judicial decisions in Idaho. Hillam stated that the
Commission can add any conditions that they feel are necessary to a conditional use
permit for an application to meet the criteria within city code. If the Commission does not
feel like conditions will allow an application to meet the criteria within city code they
have the authority to deny an application.
Berls asked if the permanent minutes could be expanded to include more of the
Commission's discussion on applications. Bowers stated that he would expand the
minutes to include more of the Commission's discussion. Board members can always
request for information to be included in the minutes.
Berls also asked what decisions are made at design review. Hillam stated that design
review looks at the technical aspects of city code and if the application can be serviced by
the sanitation department and emergency services. Design Review does not approve an
application or make condition decisions towards a conditional use permit. Those
decisions fall within the authority of the Land Use Commission and City Council.
Mendenhall let the Commission know that Brandon Jackson had resigned from the
Board. Mendenhall talked to Jackson and thanked him for his dedication and service to
the community.
Mendenhall entertained a motion to adjourn; Schwartz made the motion. Smith seconded. All
voted to adjourn at 7:05pm.
