Summary

The commission tabled consideration of the South McDonnel Creek minor subdivision condition letter and directed staff to revise or strike a paragraph about a developer-requested variance; commissioners noted Fergus Electric had obtained at least one neighbor easement but the letter needs rewriting and recirculation.

The Fergus County Commission tabled consideration of the South McDonnel Creek minor subdivision condition letter after commissioners identified unresolved language and easement documentation they wanted clarified.

Speaker 3 raised that the developer had requested a variance for rights-of-way to allow utility maintenance within the subdivision and said he believed the rights-of-way had been or would be dedicated. Speaker 4 said Fergus Electric had obtained an easement from at least one neighbor and that the email confirming that had been forwarded to Matt and Garth but had not elicited a response. Commissioners agreed the condition letter should be rewritten or have the disputed paragraph struck and then be resubmitted for formal approval at the next commission meeting.

The commission directed staff to request the revision (or to have Matt strike the paragraph) and noted that once revised, the letter could be signed at a subsequent meeting.
