Motion carried unanimously. . e e SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING - 2 - January 23, 1980 DISCUSSION ON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Attorney Kelly and Dave Licht explained the comprehensive plan and its future effect on non-conforming lots in the various residential zones. In explaining his concern, the attorney stated that all lots in a particular zone, such as the current R-l zone of 40,000 sq. ft., that are less than the 40,000, would then become non-conforming and would carryall the limits of a non-conforming status; that is, no further additions or garages can be added, or, if a building is destroyed by a tornado or fire, the building could not be replaced. This could have a decided affect on valuations of those lots classified as non-conforming. Variances, such as currently permitted, would not be allowed under the new plan. It was suggested that a training session be held to review the responsibilities and functions of the planning commission, and the effect on the decisions of the council and, ultimately, the effect on future development of the city. Suggested that the session be held within the next few weeks, after the survey maps showing existing lots with square footage of each are completed. HEALTH INSURANCE ELIGIBILITY Moved by Keeler, seconded by any of the council staff and insurance premium to be paid unanimously. RESOLUTION NO. 13-80 Shaw, to adopt a resolution to include elected officials in the group for health by the individual.
