The Petitioner explained Application 2023-SU-04 is a petition requesting to allow a mobile home located at 518 ½ Poplar Street to remain on the location. The mobile home was placed on the location with a special use and since the petitioner wants to purchase the property from her sister for her primary residence, she knew she had to have a special use allowing the mobile home to remain on the location in her name.
Chairman Raibley asked if there were any questions or comments from the board. With no questions or comments from the board Chairman Raibley asked if there were a motion either to recommend or not recommend the application be approved.
Board Member Shawn Storckman made the motion to recommend to the City council that the special use be granted. Board Member Tyson Meador seconded the motion. All present voted Aye.
Chairman Raibley let the petitioner know the City Council meeting would be held Monday March 20, 2023 in this very room at 5:00. He thanked Jamie Linson for her presence at the meeting and that the zoning board was only an advisory board and the council would make the final decision.
Chairman Raibley asked if there was any old business or any new business to discuss. With no old business to discuss the meeting proceeded to new business.
Dave Easter asked if the board members wanted to keep the same meeting times or if they would like to change the times of the board meeting. The members stated that the 5:00 PM meetings worked best for them. Mr. Easter then said all future zoning board meetings would be held at the new Public Works building located at 602 E. 5th Street. He then stated if anyone wants to tour the new meeting area, they were invited any time.
