He showed a comparison at what it would cost to do it in-house - $9,651.20. It would require a purchase of software but would still save a considerable amount. The software cost for pricing and delivery is $13,653.50. There would be two phases. Mr. Hartman said that he has spoken with LifeStar and they assured him that it is a great thing and that they would help in any way that they can.

There were questions regarding the section 100-9.4 Area, Height, Bulk and Placement Requirements (AG/RE). Commissioner Graf questioned Frank Onweller on the engineer's requirement for curb cuts. Mr. Onweller responded 550 feet. Commissioner Graf pointed out that could be a problem with the language as it is written right now regarding the road frontage. Commissioner Genter suggested coming up with a different formula. Subdivision regs will have to be looked at again. There were also questions on the definitions in Article 100-23...clarification of domestic dogs or exotic pets. It better be described properly or it will be challenged. Mr. Brown stated all the zoning maps have been put on parcel. This has been done on all townships. Commissioner Graf asked if the Rural Zoning Commission had approved this. Mr. Brown said yes. Chris Stuckey commented on #10 - a contractor's business, which says that all equipment must be stored inside when not in use. He wondered if a building would have to be built. Commissioner Barnaby pointed out that it does say a fence could be built. Commissioner Graf asked Mr. Stuckey where he lived. Mr. Stuckey responded Clinton Township. Commissioner Genter said that these amendments pertain only to the townships that are county zoned. Mr. Stuckey said that he was made aware of that. Commissioner Graf asked if Mr. Brown would be issuing conditional use permits on all these types of businesses. Mr. Brown said they would be reviewing all of them. Commissioner Graf also asked if it was his intent that once the business was legal that a sign could not be put up. Terminology was scutinized on the issue Mr. stuckey referred to on item 10 where some points were "shall" and some were "may". Mr. Brown agreed. Commissioner Genter suggested it might be better to address this the same as junk vehicles. Mr. Stuckey said that Clinton Township has worked with him on the amount of ground and the number of pieces of equipment he can have out for sale. He said that he was puzzled how factories can crop up on ag property and he just wants to sell a few pieces of equipment. Commissioner Graf asked if Mr. Stuckey had questioned Clinton Township if he could have a zoning change. Mr. Stuckey said he had and that a public hearing had been held and it was turned down. The Commissioners again stressed that he was in Clinton Township and therefore not covered under the county zoning. Mr. Stuckey asked if he understood that Fulton County zoning does not supercede the towship. Commissioner Graf said no, it does not. Commissioner Graf closed the hearing at 11:02. Commissioner Graf stated that now there are 20 days to make a decision. Commissioner Genter asked if they had the right to change any wording in this. Mr. Brown said yes, but it did have to be by a unanimous vote. Commissioner Graf suggested that the Commissioners not act on this today but to sit down and discuss this matter further. He asked Mr. Brown for a list of definitions. A work session will be held prior to the Commissioners making a decision. | |
