Approve September 3, 2025 Planning & Zoning Minutes
Commission members reviewed the minutes from the September 3, 2025 meeting. Commissioner Nelson expressed concern about a section of the minutes regarding a property line adjustment discussion, specifically objecting to text that stated 'if the property line adjustment isn't possible, a variance may be needed.' The Commissioners clarified they would not have suggested variances and requested that portion be removed, noting they had instructed the resident to obtain a proper survey.
After discussion, it was agreed to remove two sentences from that section and keep only the statement that 'the resident indicated that she would wait for the survey.'
