Commissioner Piechowski reported on the tour around the water and sewer facilities held with Marc Angleberger, Plant Operator. He had concerns about well threes pump being shallow and would like to try to obtain a grant to get it deeper. It was suggested he work with Marc on this. All Council members agreed it should be deeper and that something should be done sooner than later.
Commissioner Kellar reported Planning and Zoning met on July 17th and Verdant Developers was in attendance. The P&Z committee feels there needs to be documents. One would be the MOU and the other would be code and variance changes. He will keep the Council informed. Commissioner Spruill opened discussion on whether single family homes could be built on the property. He remembered it being said at another meeting that they were not allowed. Upon looking it up in the code book it was discovered they are allowed in NMX zoning. Commissioner Rittelmeyer suggested doing a variance to the setback as opposed to a text amendment.
