ZONING ORDINANCE CHANGES:

SIGNS: Discussed hiring an intern or part time person for working on the sign inventory. This can be handled on a case by case until the inventory is completed. The burden of proof will be with the owner on how long. Good start is to send the ordinance to the local sign companies. Start the inventory as soon as new ones come. Use the disc camera for putting in the computers. (Inge [Kyler] will check with Dr. Lynn Harvey)

SITE PLANS: Feel that the 60 days is workable or that either applicant or township could ask for an extension. Could start construction without all the conditions and then come back. If changes are needed, could send back to owner prior to the meeting.

Changed the section on what does and does not require reviews.

SITE PLAN FORMS: Not for zoning referrals or could modify one for homes.

JOHN VERLINDE SITE PLAN:

Reviewed site plan for building on Lansing Road at Royston [Road] for John Verlinde. He has the drainfield approved and knows where the well will be located. He has the driveway approval from the state coming in off Lansing Road. The driveway will split after 30' and service both his property and the other land division.

The planning commission is asking for a new drawing that will show the grades down to Lansing Road and storm water retention. He should also file copies of all the papers he has for the file.

They are not planning on any signs at this time. He has three full time and one part time employees at this time. Stockpiling of supplies will not happen unless need on a weekend job or get something from a site. They own 7 pieces of equipment.

This use is consistent with Lisa Bartlett.

With no further business Kyler moved and Hall second to adjourn the meeting. Carried unanimously. Adjourned at 8:25 PM.

Linda Towsley, Clerk
