Connie motioned and Jim seconded the motion to approve agenda.  All agreed. Jim motioned and Levi seconded, to approve the minutes of the Aug 24, 2020 regular meeting.

Scheduled Guests: No Guests were Scheduled.

The Chair opened discussion of NEW Business. The following items were discussed.

Building Permit Application from Wayne and Kim Thorson, 920 Co Rd M (AG) to construct a shed.

Due to the incomplete nature of the application, efforts were made to contact the applicant for additional details regarding construction and placement of the shed.  After the Chairman spoke to the applicant, we were able to determine that the building as described in the phone conversation would meet all the applicable ordnances.   Following discussion of the application Jim motioned to approve and Levi seconded.   All members present voted to approve the application.

Commission members also discussed ways to improve the quality of submitted building permits.  Incomplete, inaccurate, or Ambiguous building applications are submitted for consideration on a regular basis.  Applications of this nature take extra time and resources to review and process properly.   No action was taken at this time to address the issue.   The topic will be revisited at a future date.

No unscheduled guests were in attendance.

At 8:13 PM the chair called for adjournment. Jim motioned and Connie seconded.

All agreed.
