At 6:00PM Chairman Caleb Davis identified the presence of a quorum, opened the Meeting, introduced the Commission members and presented the evening workshop agenda.

Davis asked the Commission if there were any changes or corrections to be made to the Minutes of the January 17, 2019 Meeting. There being none, Davis asked for a motion to approve the January 17 Minutes. Rob Woywod so moved, seconded by Scott Fuller, and there being no further discussion Davis called for a vote. The votes were as follows:

John Cranor - Aye, Tim Heenan - Abstain, Scott Fuller - Aye, Wade Purdom -Aye, Adam Isaac - Aye, Rob Woywod - Aye, Caleb Davis - Aye

Tally: Nay (0), Aye (6), Absent (0), Abstain (1)

The motion to approve the January 17, 2019 Meeting minutes was unanimous.


Chairman Caleb Davis then read the General Procedures script, followed by a Quasi-Judicial script regarding the continuation of Application 19-035. No members of the Commission had a conflict of interest and Davis asked the applicant for an opening statement.


Because the reason for continuation of this matter involved a number of considerations yet to be resolved after the January 17 meeting, lists of these items were presented to the applicant within two days after that meeting. Clint Kimball delivered a list relating to Road and Bridge concerns, and John Cranor itemized a similar list related to concerns of the Planning and Zoning Commission; Gus Jackson, Chief of North Bench Fire Department, also provided some recommendations to be considered. Randy Wedel, speaking for the applicant, said that although the lists had been received and fully appreciated, the applicant had not yet been able to complete the items on the lists. Chairman Davis asked the applicant if he would notify the Planning and Zoning Commission, within 120 days, when ready to resume consideration after the list requirements have been completed. Harold Wedel replied that this would be done and further agreed that the time frame of 120 days is a reasonable time in which to respond.

Ryan Johnsen of Panhandle Health said that concern related to testing the parcels for septic was largely alleviated. He said that lots 4 and 5 have a swale running through them but that they were not going to be an issue if the plans for the structures on those two lots took the rolling elevation into consideration.

Davis asked for a motion to adjourn this meeting regarding Application 19-035 until the applicant again makes a request, within 120 days, for a continuation of Application 19-035 at a regularly scheduled Planning and Zoning meeting. Tim Heenanso moved and the motion was seconded by Rob Woywod. There being no further discussion Davis called for a vote. The votes were as follows:

John Cranor - Aye, Tim Heenan - Aye, Scott Fuller - aye, Wade Purdom -Aye, Adam Isaac - Aye, Rob Woywod - Aye, Caleb Davis - Aye

Tally: Nay (0), Aye (7), Absent (0), Abstain (0)

The motion to adjourn this meeting regarding Application 19-035 until the applicant requests, within 120 days, a continuation of Application 19-035 at a regularly scheduled Planning and Zoning meeting was unanimous.

The applicant and Randy Wedel left the meeting.



Concerning applicants for the openings on the Planning and Zoning Commission: Staff noted that both candidate David Hollabaugh and Ron Self had been recommended to the Commissioners as members of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Staff said that although it appears the County Commissioners would approve these appointments, the procedure for approval takes time and that hopefully by the next meeting this status would be made known.


Rob Woywod moved to adjourn, Tim Heenan seconded, approved unanimously at 8:15 pm.
