Council hears permitting question for proposed high-school pole barn

During the public hearing, members reviewed an application concerning a pole barn near the high school. One speaker (voice 3) told the board the pole barn was not on the original plan and recommended a separate permit: "They asked Melissa if they needed another permit for the pole barn at the school and I told them yes because it was not on the original plan," the speaker said. The building's scale was debated; another participant noted the house on a separate lot measured about 11 feet while the proposed pole barn would be roughly 22 feet tall, which raised concerns about height and compatibility with surrounding structures.
