F

motion
is
to
approve
the
ordinance
all
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye
any
opposing
a
motion
carries
item.
C
is
an
approval
of
resolution
on
the
plats
of
lots
14
through
25
block
2,
Willow,
Creek,
Village,
5th
edition
to
the
municipality
of
Watertown
for
more
information,
we'll
go
to
our
urban
planner
Brandy
Hanton,
community
development
manager.
Sorry,
the.
G
G
G
So
I
can
pull
that
out
for
reference,
so
this
property
here,
Willow,
Creek
Drive-
is
up
in
this
vicinity.
So
these
are
adjacent
to
Second
Avenue
and
we
will
create
12
lots
that
will
be
used
for
each
lap,
we'll
have
a
duplex
constructed
on
it
and
they
will
be
provided
access
by
a
private,
Street,
easement
I'm
here
for
these
Southern
Lots,
otherwise
Lots
14
through
19.
G
Otherwise,
we
would
usually
like
to
see
through
streets,
but
in
this
scenario
these
are,
they
will
be
used
as
really
driveways,
but
will
be
maintained
privately
by
the
successors
of
these
Lots,
so
they'll
be
in
quadrants,
where
they'll
have
private
agreements
kind
of
similar
to
an
HOA,
but
they
did
not
create
a
homeowners
association
for
this,
but
they
have
the
the
details
of
the
maintenance,
spelled
out
in
Greater
detail
than
our
private
Street
maintenance
agreement.
That
is
also
being
acted
on
tonight.
A
H
G
Nope
all
good,
so
they
will
have
sidewalks
adjacent
ooh.
Actually,
in
this
area
the
sidewalks
they
they
will
be
required
to
have
sidewalks
along
2nd
Avenue
and
then
not
along
the
private
Street.
But
where
my
confusion
came
from
with
the
question.
Is
the
area
to
the
north
that
they
do
not
have
sidewalks
in
the
front?
They
have
them
in
the
rear
and
that
was
agreed
upon
when
they
entered
into
the
development
agreement
when
that
area
was
planted.
But
this
area
will
still
be
required
to
have
sidewalks
on
the
front.
G
Correct-
and
we
looked
into
that
so
after
250
feet-
then
turnarounds
are
required.
So
in
this
area
here
the
private
street
is
able
to
give
provide
access
to
these
Southern
lots
and
then
they've
extended
and
accessed
easement,
because
it's
minimal
and
the
and
the
private
street
is
able
to
provide
access
to
to
really.
We
looked
into
that
and
discussed
it
internally
and
with
the
applicant
and
so
and
with
the
fire
department
as
well,
and
we
feel
that
this
is
a
better
configuration
for
this
development
and
it
is
meeting
the
IFC
standards.
D
G
So
these
Property
Owners
would
be
responsible
to
bring
their
garbages
to
the
public
right-of-way
to
the
North,
and
then
the
city
services
would
be
provided
from
the
public
right-of-way
because
we
don't
want
the
and
then
also
with
snow
removal
and
mail.
So
all
of
the
mailboxes
will
be
on.
Second,
that's
not
as
big
of
a
deal,
but
with
the
heavier
equipment
with
snow
removal
or
garbage
pickup.
Then
we
don't
want
to
be
causing
damage
to
these
private
streets
and
potentially
having
them
need
maintenance
prematurely.
D
You
know
it
sounds
like
you
guys
have
been
this
well,
but
how
does
this
get
serviced
if
there's
a
need,
if
they're,
if
I
think
somebody
may
have
mentioned
it,
but
fire
service?
If
there
is
a
fire
at
one
of
these
places,
primarily
the
bigger
concern
is
the
southern
Lots
because
of
access
to
them
has
this
been
ran
through
the
fire
department
and
they're
concerned
and
they're
good
with
what
they've
got
yep?
What
you
have
planned
here,
yep.
A
Any
further
questions
or
comments
Council
hearing
none
the
motion
is
to
approve
the
resolution.
All
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye
aye,
any
post,
say
nay.
Motion,
carries
item
d
is
a
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
establishing
the
zoning
designation
of
R1
single-family
residential
district
that
upon
annexation
shall
be
known
as
Williston
annexation,
first
edition
or
community
development
manager,
Brandi
Hatton
will
inform
us
more.
G
Thank
you
mayor.
So
this
is
the
Williston
Edition
and
this
is
their
first
phase.
The
concept
plan
was
approved
by
the
plan
Commission
on
September,
8th
last
Thursday,
and
so,
along
with
the
annexation
and
Zoning
of
phase
one
and
this
area,
I'll
pull
up
the
vicinity
map,
so
the
concept
plan
included
this
entire
quarter
section
of
land,
and
that
showed
you
know
the
master
plan
of
what
this
development
will
be.
G
So
this
was
laid
out
as
phase
one
and
you'll
notice,
though
on
well
I
wish
that
I
should
have
pulled
up
the
map
of
the
concept
plan.
So
this
zoning
of
R1
doesn't
match
the
concept
plan,
but
it
is
in
the
Subaru
water
consent
decree.
So
we
have
to
get
it
platted
as
one
lot
before
coming
back
and
rezoning
re-subdividing
and
then
rezoning
to
make
sure
that
the
zoning
designation
does
follow
the
lot
lines
of
the
approved
concept
plan.
G
So
this
one
will
be
before
you
about
four
times
to
get
this
first
phase
of
the
project
complete
and
able
to
be
developed
when
this
once
the
zoning.
So
it's
the
annexation,
end
zoning
right
now
we're
just
doing
the
first
reading
of
the
zoning
once
it
comes
back
together
with
the
annexation,
end
zoning
and
then
we
submit
or
record
the
plot
we'll
have
on
the
face
of
the
plot
that
no
further
development
can
proceed
without
Inc
being
in
compliance
with
the
approved
concept
plan.
G
Worst
case
scenario,
if
that
never
happened,
would
be
that
they
could
only
put
one
single
family
home
on
this
entire
piece
of
land.
That's
about
34,
Acres
and
just
for
a
little
background
too,
for
like
Harmony
Hill,
when
we've
annexed
and
zoned
that
prop
properties
there
and
they're
phasing
we've
zoned
it
A1,
which
is
agricultural.
G
This
one
we
couldn't
do
because
it's
kind
of
a
placeholder
District
this
one.
We
couldn't
do
that
because
we
have
less
than
35
Acres
just
under.
So
that's
why
we're
going
with
R1,
because
it
is
the
most
restrictive
and
will
will
be
the
placeholder
until
we
move
forward
with
further
subdivision.
So
with
that
I'll
stand
by
with
any
questions.
A
A
G
Thank
you
mayor.
So
this
is
another
rezone
request
or
Not
Another,
because
the
other
one
was
annexation.
Zoning.
This
is
a
rezone
request
for
the
Casey's
Convenience
Store
on
Highway
81.
You
can
see
here
outlined
in
blue
and
it
is
currently
zoned
i1
light
industrial.
They
are
rezoning
proposing
to
rezoning
to
rezone
it
to
C3
Highway
commercial,
which
is
this
red
area
that
is
adjacent.
G
So
it
is
good
in
that
respect
that
it
is
not
a
spot
Zone
and
it
is
appropriate
that
this
property
would
be
zoned,
C3,
Highway
commercial
rather
than
the
i1
light
Industrial,
and
it
does
meet
the
minimum
lot
size
requirements
for
that
District.
They
are
proposing.
So
with
that
I'll
stand
by
with
any
for
any
questions.
G
A
D
G
D
G
You
share
that
with
us,
yes
and
so,
and
I
believe
I
have
that
in
my
staff
report
and
thank
you
for
that,
because
that's
a
a
good
point
to
make
too
of
they.
Those
i1,
doesn't
allow
for
a
retail
establishment.
The
property
has
been
existing
as
legal
non-conforming
because
it
doesn't
conform
to
the
uses
in
the
district,
but
it
has
like
it's
grandfathered.
So
it
is
good
to
see
this
property
be
brought
into
conformance
with
the
comprehensive
land
use
plan
and
just
the
ordinance
in
general.
G
But
the
main
reason
is
because
then
of
the
retail
establishment
and
then
moving
forward
like
they
have,
with
their
other
two
establishments
on
19th
and
Highway,
20
of
doing
the
off
sale,
malt
beverage
license
and
so
they're,
not
a.
They
were
not
able
to
apply
for
that,
because
their
zoning
was
out
of
compliance
in
this
location.
G
D
H
A
We
have
two
separate
actions
here,
but
we
will
can
we
we
will
take
them
separate,
but
we
will
discuss
them
as
one
first
it'll
be
an
approval
of
a
resolution
adopting
the
boundaries
and
approving
the
project
plan
for
tax
income,
increment
District
number
19
located
along
Willow,
Creek,
Drive
and
item
two
is
authorization
for
the
city
manager
to
sign
the
development
agreement
between
the
city
of
Watertown
and
Glacier
Lake's
capital
for
tax
for
Tiff
number
19.
for
more
information
in
our
community
development
manager
will
give
us
more
all.
G
Right,
thank
you.
I
wasn't
certain
there.
Maybe
you
guys
I
was
out
when
all
right,
so
this
is,
if
you
recall,
was
in
front
of
the
Council
on
April
18th
same
plan
just
when
it
was
submitted
to
the
Department
of
Revenue.
The
legal
description
was
an
error.
The
map,
the
boundary
map,
has
never
changed.
There
was
just
a
piece
of
property
that
was
not
included
in
the
legal
description
which
is
important.
A
You
very
much
chair
will
first
entertain
a
motion
to
approve
the
resolution
made
by
councilman
Tupper
second
and
by
councilman
Paulson,
and
also
if
I,
could
also
get
a
motion
to
authorize
the
city
manager
to
sign
the
documents-
emotion,
but
maybe
councilman,
Tupper
and
seconded
by
councilman
Paulson,
so
open
it
up
for
discussion
on
either
of
these
two
actions.
Council
councilman.
I
Shetty,
thank
you,
mayor
I,
just
wanted
to
the
developers
appreciate
their
work.
I
know
they've
been
diligent
at
doing
some
of
the
work
there.
I
voted
no
on
the
first
one
and
I
still
have
questions
about
a
tip
on
a
tiff.
That's
why?
The
first
time
we
did
this
I
voted.
No,
even
though
there
was
some
arrangements
that
tried
to
make
sense
of
it,
plus,
especially
with
some
land
they
had
added
to
it
on
the
northern
part
of
that
development.
I
A
A
A
A
All
right,
the
motion
is
to
approve
the
amendment.
All
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye
aye,
any
opposed,
say,
nay,
motion,
carries
item.
H
is
an
approval
of
a
sec,
a
Second
Amendment
to
the
purchase
agreement
with
j
j
land,
Sales
LLC
for
the
purchase
of
land
on
which
the
city's
multi-purpose
two-sheet
Ice
Arena
will
be
located.
City
engineer,
Justin
Peterson
will
tell
us
more.
J
Thank
you
mayor.
This
amendment
is
to
the
the
land
transaction
with
j
j
land
sales
for
the
ice
arena.
Property
part
of
the
amendment
is
to
we're
at
the
phrase
now,
where
we're
confirming
the
extent
of
any
additional
soil.
Corrections
has
already
been
a
handful
of
work.
That's
already
been
done,
but
we're
in
the
process
of
that,
but
this
amendment
will
allow
a
closing
prior
to
completion,
I
guess
of
those
soil
Corrections.
A
H
J
D
Yeah
I'm
very
funny
just
comment
on
councilman
Mueller's
question
is
by
us
not
approving
this
amendment.
We
automatically
have
a
delay
an
assured
delay
in
the
startup
of
this,
whereas
by
approving
it
it's
possible,
we
have
a
delay
if,
if
they
were
to
find
borings
that
were
not
satisfactory,
but
so
that's
you
know
it's
a
good
reason
why
we
can
vote
forward
on
for
this,
so
that
we
can
move
forward,
get
some
work
done
and
then,
if
there
is
an
issue,
deal
with
it
and
deal
with
a
delay
at
that
point,
so.
E
F
City
councilman
Shetty
Steve
over
there,
who
else
was
here
that
was
out
to
the
airport
fire
station
to
go
through
Fire,
apps,
101.
I'd
gone
through
it
a
few
years
ago,
and
and
what
doing
due
to
some
back
issues?
I
chose
not
to
do
it,
but
I
supervised,
and
it
was
pretty
fun
watching
you
guys
all
go
through
the
same
thing.
F
H
But
you
know
it
was.
It
was
a
great
experience
and
I
was
really
impressed
with
how
well
how
well
trained
the
folks
are
at
the
fire
station
and
the
the
great
job
they
did
of
explaining
things
to
us.
So
it
does.
You
know
a
lot
of
folks
have
this
vision
of
fire
firemen
just
hanging
around
in
the
hall
playing
poker
and
eating
sandwiches.
You
know,

It's
gives
you
a
very
much
greater
appreciation
for
all
the
work
those
folks
do
and
and
that
whole
idea
of
them
hanging
out
in
the
in
the
hall,
and
just
you
know,
you
know,
laying
around
and
sleeping
and
drinking
coffee,
not
true,

they're
busy.
These
guys
work
hard
and
and
we're
fortunate
to
have
them
to
take
care
of
us.
Thanks.
