Board schedules Dec. 16 public hearing on shoreland ordinance changes
Summary
Aitkin County Planning/Environmental Services requested amendments to the Shoreland Management Ordinance; the board scheduled a public hearing for Dec. 16 at 4:30 p.m. and a second reading for Dec. 23.
Environmental Services staff asked the board to schedule a public hearing on proposed amendments to the Aitkin County Shoreland Management Ordinance after the Planning Commission held a hearing and recommended the changes on Nov. 17. The ordinance updates were described as the product of more than a year of public engagement and several committees’ review dating to a Committee of the Whole in November 2024.
Staff requested the public hearing be set for the Dec. 16 regular meeting, with a proposed second reading Dec. 23. Commissioners agreed to schedule the hearing at 4:30 p.m. to align with truth and taxation timing and to make attendance practical for the public.
The board took no substantive edits at the meeting; staff said the memorandum and timetable in the packet summarize prior engagement and edits.
