Zoning Director Steve Fisher reviewed the proposed Draft of 17.37 Lower St. Croix River Valley District II and boundaries with the Committee. After considerable discussion with staff, the Committee decided to review the minor changes with staff on August 181h Hearing-Glen Hills Watershed Moratorium A discussion on the boundaries of the current moratorium was held. Hearing opened at 10:00 a.m. Fisher read the notice of hearing. Gary Lepak, D.N.R. explained the differences in dam classifications. Chairman Ron Raymond opened the hearing for public comment. Several public citizens had questions. Motion to close the hearing by Hense, seconded by Larson. Chairman Raymond moves to extend moratorium for an additional year (for a total of three years), with the understanding that moratorium areas will be removed once the D.N.R. approves specific sections certifying an approved elevation. Motion seconded by Larson. Motion carried. 1 PARK BUSINESS Bills and Invoices Parks Director Joe Grant presented the July bill list of $5,864.84 for review. Motion by Jensen, seconded by Raymond to approve payment, seconded by Raymond. Motion carried. Park Manager's Report Grant reported income was down about 14%. The golf course has closed the fish fry and moved the bar downstairs. This is affecting the camping as they are going elsewhere. Seal coating on Troy Park Road is completed. D.N.R. and Zoning permits for cleanup of the parking area will be needed. The Committee requested Grant to work with the Zoning Staff on this project. Discussion on the fence cutting at Perch Lake was discussed. The Sheriff's Department is investigating the matter. Glen Hills Maintenance Building After discussion with Grant it was determined the project would be over budget approximately $2,000.00. Perch Lake Bob Heise reviewed the engineering data on road alignments provided by the Highway Department. The engineering data on that tour did confirm staff's perceptions. Staff took time to meet with Tom Clubb and Sean O'Connell separately to listen to their individual concerns. Sean O'Connell sent a letter by fax with his concerns. The Committee was given a copy of that letter. After discussion, the staff felt the project impacts to the neighbors could be mitigated with proper design of the proposed facilities. Motion to accept staff's recommended route by Jensen, seconded by Hense. Motion carried. Any Other Business The part-time position requested by Grant was denied due to lack of documentation. It was determined that Grant can get extra temporary help only. Grant will set up a form to get a track record of what is being done by staff at this time. He will study that data and possibly request a new position after the study. PLANNING BUSINESS Bills, Invoices and Revenue Report Planning Director Dave Fodroczi presented bills totaling $3,772.52 for the month of July 1999. The Revenue Report was reviewed by the Committee. Motion by Hense, seconded by Larson to pay bills. Luckey opposed, as she had not reviewed. Motion carried. Development Management Plan & Ordinance Two meetings have been scheduled for September 20ffi and September 23rd on the final update of the St Croix County Development Management Plan. Many committees and press will be included in that mailing. This meeting is the final meeting before public hearings. 2 Collar Counties Report This is an association of thirteen Minnesota Counties that surround the seven Twin Cities metropolitan counties. Chairman Raymond, County Administrator John Krizek, and Daryl Standafer have attended these meetings monthly. These are Counties with similar problems. These counties are experiencing a number of similar issues related to the metro area. The group is seeking and discussing common ways to deal with such issues. Ad Hoc County New Richmond Campus Land Use Planning Committee A memo has been sent regarding the appointments and goals of this Committee. A report to Finance and the County Board will have to be made next year. Fodroczi reported no meetings have been scheduled as yet. County Land & Water Resource Meeting Plan Technical Advisory Committee Fodroczi is pulling together updated information for the Land Information Plan and will be working with budget information in the next week or so. Then it will have to be brought back before this Committee and then to County Board for approval. If everything goes well it should be ready sometime in October. The State tried to streamline that process so we will meet their requirements. Our funding for State and local grant funds for Land Information is tied to that. Grant funds for two years, possibly three, to convert all maps, which covers about 13,000 parcels to digital form. All of the maps done in the Auto Cad Program will also be converted to the new GIS System. We have the funds for the conversion, but will prepare requests for proposals and that work will be sub-contracted. Real Property Lister Fodroczi reported that workrolls for almost all of the towns are in but four towns and two villages will be late. We have extra help to update addresses. The lottery credit will happen again this year, so all of the addresses must be complete so that the Treasurer must go through a pre-certification process. All tax payers will get a post-card to verify ownership and residence requirements. Legislative Update No report given. REGISTER OF DEEDS Office Expansion Kay Walsh viewed the floor plan of the office with the Committee. After viewing the present office space, the Committee approved the expansion unanimously. BUDGETS A discussion was held concerning requests for large ticket items. Grant would like a study/audit of playground equipment for safety concerns. Grant reported that due to the loss of military vehicles they are short vehicles. Lease is the preferred way to go with option to buy. 3 Adjournment Motion by Hense, seconded by Larson to adjourn at 1:30 p.m. motion carried.
