Summary

Planning consultant Spencer Foster presented draft Development Code changes, beginning with Chapter 7; commissioners discussed how the draft treats commercial development in a town that currently has no commercial zones and requested continued review (information only).

At the May 19 meeting Spencer Foster (MAG) presented printed copies of a consolidated draft of the Wallsburg Development Code and led commissioners through proposed edits beginning with Chapter 7.

Foster noted reconciling provisions that address commercial development in a town that has no commercial zones and said the draft prepares the town in case a property owner later seeks commercial development. Commissioners discussed whether commercial provisions belong in the current general plan and how parking requirements or future utilities might apply to any hypothetical commercial project. No formal action was taken; the review was informational and will continue in future meetings with Chapter 8 tentatively scheduled for the next packet.

Commissioners asked for time to read the printed draft so that specific edits can be considered in subsequent meetings.
