The Agenda
Tonight's meeting started off with a welcoming of the new commissioner - Howard Hank. Mr Hank was very excited to be here and is looking forward to doing what he can to leave a positive impact on the city.
Once that and the approval of the meeting minutes was out of the way - a public hearing was held for a request to rezone property at the east side of the intersection where Grimes Crossing and Big Divide meet. The property contains just under 15 acres, and will be rezoned into 4 single family home plots, averaging out at around 4 acres each. Rob Endter asked if the property next to the rail road tracks would be falling in line with city code as far as distance from a rail road track. He was told by the city that the only regulation is the property line can not cross the rail road easement, which it falls right on the border, so no codes are being broken. Mr Endter then further expressed concern about a train derailment sending a rail car into the house on that property. The representative for the developer stated it was his understanding that the developer plans on placing the house as far in the opposing corner as possible to keep it away from the tracks. The rezoning was unanimously passed.
