Summary

Council discussed draft zoning changes that would permit above-ground pools on adjoining vacant lots and allow sheds up to 144 sq ft on removable foundations; Solicitor Tim Wachter will prepare draft ordinance amendments for future Council consideration.

Council discussed proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance related to skill games of chance (previously approved) and additional items including permitting above-ground pools on adjoining vacant lots and allowing sheds up to 144 square feet on a gravel base, on skids or pillars so they would be removable.

Council indicated front-yard setback rules would still apply but considered removing the setback restriction on adjoining property lines. No formal motion or vote occurred; Solicitor Tim Wachter will draft suggested language for an ordinance amendment and present it to council for subsequent review.

Council directed staff to return a formal draft rather than taking immediate action during the July 9 meeting.
