PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE
ST. CROIX COUNTY GOVERNMENT CENTER., HUDSON WI
August 2, 2006
Present:
Committee: Supervisors Wally Habhegger, Ron Troyer, Gene Ruetz
Staff: Bob Bezek, Ellen Denzer
Call to Order: Chair Habhegger called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m.
Adoption of Agenda: Motion by Troyer, 2 °d by Ruetz, to adopt the agenda. Motion carried.
Date of Next Meeting: August 7, 2006, 11 a.m. in Hudson.
Action on Previous Minutes: None
Hearings:
Proposed amendments to Chapter 12 Sanitary, Chapter 13 Land Division and Chanter 17
Zoning Ordinances.
Bezek gave an overview of the proposed amendments and then Chair Habhegger opened the public
hearing. Three; minor editing changes were recommended by staff that were not identified in the
draft that was advertised for the public hearing.
Bill Berndt, representing the St. Croix Valley Home Builder's Association, commented that overall
the Association supports the request but would like future consideration given to increasing the
threshold to when a special exception permit is required for grading and filling within 300 ft. of the
ordinary high water mark (OHWM). He indicated that 12,000 ft. sq. maybe makes more sense.
Habhegger than asked if staff can track the issue and recommend a change in the future. Bezek
identified that they could.
Ron Raymond stated that while he had no concerns for the record, he was not aware of the
proposed amendments in time to have a discussion before the Land and Water Committee. Staff
was asked if the amendments were properly noticed and identified yes and that two members of the
Planning and Zoning Committee are also members of the Land and Water Committee. Habhegger
suggested that Mr. Raymond discuss the issue with Bob Heise and get any feedback to Mr. Bezek
prior to the August 7` meeting.
Denzer identified that Supervisor Denise Gunderson had a concern that; holding hearings on the
first Wednesday always conflicts with the Town of Somerset. Denzer went on to identify that
while staff are sympathetic to Somerset's concerns, the date chosen had the least number of
conflicts with local municipal meetings. Ron Raymond also interjected that when he chaired the
Committee this was an issue and that they also often chose the first Wednesday due to lack of
conflict.
Hearing no additional concerns, Habhegger closed the public hearing. It was decided that the full
Committee will vote on the amendments on their August 7th meeting. No motion was necessary.
Meeting adjourned at 8:30 p.m.
Respectfully submitted:
Robert J. Bez, , C e Administrator Stan Krueger, Secretary
