J. R. Williams
Ann-exation
J. R. Williams AnneEBtion - Memorandum from the Planner
was submitted to the Commission outlining the criteria the
Commission should consider on this annexation. Proposed
resolution was also submitted by James Breasted.
City Manager Leon Wurl was present and discussed with the
Commission proposed staged annexations to the City.
Chairman Molny stated he felt most of the Commission was
for the annexation but feel it should be zoned R-15 rather
than the condition of annexation of RMF-PUD zoning; feel
the burden on the intersection of Mill and Main will be
increased; do not feel the monies that would go towards
the Mill and Main intersection shQuld be transferred to
the bridge on Mill Street; and also feel there will be
a burden on sanitation by the developments in this area.
City Manager Wurl stated he did not feel one developer
should be held responsible for the bridge when the benefit
would be city wide. Developer should bear such burdens as
water extension, street improvements etc. The problem of
sanitation will exist anyway and feel that it is better
to have concentration of people in this area rather than
spread out.
Mr. Bartel explained this land is presently zoned for 9
units in the county.
City Manager Wurl stated the Commission should make their
feelings known, as relates to the bridge or major con-
struction projects of this type, to the Council at budget
time.
Discussed who should bear the burden of the construction
of the improved bridge. Mr. Adams pointed out that the .j.'
Cetl'l ~,de-...... ,CI}
entire circulation in this area should be under CQnstrHct-
ion, not just Mill Street.
Mr. Bruce Kistler pointed out not all untis would be built
this summer. Would agree to contribute to a district if
such were formed. Further stated access to the development
could be put on the other side of the development so that
traffic would not go near the junction of the hospital and
Red Mountain Road.
Breasted moved to recommend annexation to the City Council
of this property. Seconded by Goodhard.
Commission request the list of criteria be attached to
the motion when sent to the City Council.

RMF - PUD
Condition of
Annexation
RMF-PUD condition of anneEation - Collins moved that the
Commission recommend to the City Council that RMF zoning
be denied on the basis that the increased density will
increase the already critical traffic problem. Seconded
by Adams.
Breasted moved to amend the motion that the Commission
recommend to City Council that it be zoned R-15 as it is
in the County until ach time as traffic congestion
problems are solved. Seconded by Jordan. All in favor,
motion carried.
Main Motion - Roll call vote - Breasted aye; Jordan aye;
Vidal aye; Collins aye; Goodhard nay; Adams aye; Molny
nay. Motion carried.
Woerndle
Subdivision
Woerndle Subdivision - Surveyor was present and showed
plat to the Commission of how the lots are presently
subdivided and could be sold at this time.
Mr. Wooden pointed out the land is presently zoned R-15
in the County, some lots do not meet the 1500 square foot
requirement, open space along the ditch has been provided
which would be utilized to meet the 1500 square foot re-
quirements on those lots lacking same, still a problem
with seepage from the ditch into three lots and it's
questionable if those lots are buildable lots.
Commission suggest a PUD concept be used. Breasted pointed
out the access to Highway 82 is dangerous.
Mr. Wooden pointed out the roads are intended to be private
roads and would be only 30' rather than the required 60'
for public roads. Chairman Molny pointed out this area
abuts on Aspen Grove which is R-15 and does not allow for
duplexes, therefore feel these lots should be reduced and
condition should be that duplexes be excluded.
Commission request the Planning Office send a letter to
the applicant outlining the following comments of the
Commission and deficiences of the subdivision: substandard
roads, substandard lots, ditch seepage, access to Highway
82, duplex use excessive, too many lots on the site.
Commission recommends applicant pursue a PUD type develop-
ment.
Breasted moved;:to adjourn at 7:00 p.m. and go into study
session, seconded by Vidal. All in favor, meeting adjourned.

VERBATIM DISCUSSION - PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES - May 2, 1972
Collins - Personally I don't favor annexation at this time. I feel
there are too many problems with traffic and circulation
in that area. I think that if we annex and hold the
problem of the bridge and intersection and what have you,
it becomes a responsibility of the City. I don't think
this is fair because most of the traffic and biggest
generator is going to be Red Mountain and other areas
that are still out in the County. I feel at this point
the County has taken the right steps in trying to solve
the circulation problem and setting conditions on any
further density increases over there. So I feel they are
on the right track and all of this is on the north side
of the river and I think it is something the County should
work out.
Goodhard - I was wondering that if we do annex it it would be more
or less a conditional zoning throughout the City and
County unless there are abligations of the County to
protect ourselves.
Jordan - My comments are very similar to Chick's, with the ex-
ception of the developer agreeing to the problem or
adding to its getting worse, that without any plan from
them or without any district being formed to solve the
problem, I feel that annexation at this time is pre-
mature.
Vidal - I was just talking to Herb about the possibility of a
major annexation from that whole area where you have all
the people that are involved that are creating the prob-
lem. It would take petitions to make that happen but if
you got all those people and all those developments that
are going to happen that are creating the problem to come
in at one time and try to solve this. Maybe it makes some
sense, I don't know. There is a problem and it's quite a
conflict, if you let it go back to the County that doesn't
solve the problem or you assume the burden ourselves. I
personally don't have a conviction on which way is better.
I would like to see the problem solved and I am not sure
the City is financially capable of solving it once we
bring all these in.
Molny - I feel this parcel of property should be in the City. If
the vote is to annex, then I would push hard on the zoning
part of it under PUD to limit what is built this year and
some guarantee from the applicant that he would participate
and also pressure
on the City to solve the problem one way or another.
Collins - In answer to what you said, Robin, the time to put on
pressure on cooperation is before development starts.
This is the time to get the nail down and get it resolved.
I feel this is a big problem over there. Somewhere you
are going to have to say there is a problem and what's
the solution. How much engineering has been done? They

Collins -
have made promises (McCullough). Everyone makes promises
but there are no guarantees.
Breasted -
No one has come up with purse in hand to say we are
putting up so much.
Molny -
If we vote on this annexation we should look at it
objectively and then vote on the zoning, if you want to
turn down the zoning we can.
Vida 1 -
It's hard to be objective when zoning is a part of the
annexation.
