Other recommendation:
Developers should put in infrastructure.
There should be water rights with any future annexation.
Pay for and do Hydraulic Modeling for future subdivisions.
Raise impact fees for new meters.
The Baptist Church was approved by the fire marshal.
The town water study shows there can be ninety-two more connections.
Parker was annoyed by the letter written by Attorney Josh Christner. Susan told him that she would work with Josh and rewrite the letter. Also, that recommendations need to be written up to be sent to Town Council
4. Diana Brian & Dan Bruse
Property Proposal
Dan Bruse showed the commission a survey of the Brian's property with the intended split. The survey showed 130 feet frontage. Mr. Bruse stated that he intends to use the property for horses. Brandon explained that doing this property split makes it a subdivision. There would be a $1,000.00 fee for the application and it would be non-compliant without a water conveyance fee of $2,500.00. Therefore you would be unable to get a building permit application.
5. Gary Zeluff
Plan Review and Application
Gary Zeluff presented a proposed building plan for a new home to the commission. He stated that the conveyance fee was paid by Charles Hawley and that the perk tests were done. Susan told him to get a building permit application from the town clerk.

Kendall Welch with Jones & Demille told the commission that the hydraulic model and sewer isn't in our ordinance. Susan told her that we want the hydraulic model incorporated in but, no to sewer.
Michael Jones went over construction standard details with the commissioners.
Susan asked if a disclaimer can be added that the document can be amended. Kendall told her yes and that the land use will be ready for review in October.
Susan told the commission that she and Karen will write up the variance with stipulations for the Drake's and take it to Town Council. Commissioners agreed that it should state that no part of the ADU be finished before the primary residence.
