Bennet council votes to assume role of Board of Adjustment, adopts by‑laws
Summary
The council approved Resolution 2025-11.5 removing current Board of Adjustment members and adopted Board of Adjustment by-laws so the City Council will preside as the Board of Adjustment going forward.
Mayor Ryan Cheney presented Resolution 2025-11.5 to remove existing members of the Board of Adjustment and shift the council into the Board of Adjustment role. Councilmember Zieg moved and Councilmember Schmidt seconded the resolution; roll call recorded YES: Zieg, Schmidt, Simmons, Buck and the motion carried.
The council next considered and adopted a set of Board of Adjustment by-laws that will govern how the council operates in that capacity. The minutes record the motion to adopt by-laws (moved by Zieg, seconded by Schmidt) and the roll call vote as YES: Schmidt, Simmons, Zieg, Buck. The minutes do not include the by-laws text; staff will maintain the adopted by-laws in city records.
Council members did not record dissent on the floor during the motion and no amendments were noted. The municipal code changes prompting the shift in responsibility were referenced in the minutes but the minutes do not reproduce the code changes; those appear to have been approved previously and are now operationalized by the council votes.
