Motion by Wielage, second by Simon, to adopt the agenda. Vote: Felty-absent, Lee-absent, Simon-yes, Thorson-yes, Wielage-yes; motion carried 3-0.

Thorson reported the purpose of the meeting was to review the Future Land Use Map and Executive Summary of Major Changes for Current Zoning Regulations.

Discussion on the Future Land Use Map held many questions and concerns. A zoning district of Suburban Residential shall be added to the Matrix of Land Use Categories and consideration of the addition of a Flex District. A suggestion was made that if Flex Zoning were added that district would be reviewed every five, or possibly even every two years.  Hermann was directed to add the current zoning within districts compared to what future zoning looks like on the Future Land Map. Since the boards wish to see a revamped Future Land Map, there was little discussion held of the Matrix of Land Use Categories.

Motion by Wielage, second by Simon, to adjourn at 6:54 p.m. Vote: Lee-absent, Simon-yes, Thorson-yes Wielage-yes, Felty-absent; motion carried 3-0.

William Thorson, Chairman

June Moline, Clerk
