comments, I have August 21St comments. On Page 23 of August 21St, very bottom of
the page, the last line, I'm quoted as saying I'm inclined to let the new residential -- that
should be no new residential. Insert the word no. On Page 47, the second time I speak
I was actually quoting from something else and the sentence should read this driveway
does not meet district policy and should not be -- insert the word not be approved.
August 21St also, Page 63, near the bottom of the page, not the last time I speak, but the
time before that, it tells how they will -- it should be save money, save, and the second
sehtence it did not explain how you would save, save, money. Those are my only
comments.
Centers: I would second -- I assume you made a motion to approve, Commissioner
Zaremba?
Borup: Not yet.
Zaremba: If nobody else has any comments.
Centers: Well, I have a comment that I think any minutes that are amended with the
word no or not, should be verified by the tape or the minutes before inserting those.
Zaremba: I remember speaking those words, but I agree with you.
Centers: So, the Clerk would be advised to check that before it's inserted.
Zaremba: I agree with that.
Borup: Do we have a motion to approve the amended minutes?
Zaremba: So move.
Borup: With the comments to double-check.
Centers: As noted. I would second that.
Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES

No. 3 and I believe this is back before us with instructions, probably from this body and
the City Council, so who has a report on that?
Kirkpatrick: Chairman, Members of the Commission, as you stated, this is an
application for a vacation of a 29-foot right of way. The subject property is located at
the northwest intersection of Meridian Road and Ustick Road and I will show you where
that easement to be vacated is located. The easement is being vacated per the
recommendation of staff, so that lots along the western edge of the subdivision do not
have double frontage. Staff recommends approval of this vacation.
Borup: Questions from any of the Commissioners? The only question I had was the
comment from the Irrigation District and were they confused on -- okay. It looked to me
like they may have been confused on where their easement actually was and --
Kirkpatrick: Well, actually, if you look through their packet, there is a second letter
clarifying -- see, there is the first letter where they showed concern. There is a second
letter, dated August 26th, which states, after further clarification --
Borup: Oh. Okay. I'm sorry. They were in a different order. Right. I read the second
one first. Thank you. Okay. Any other -- any other questions or comments from any of
the Commission? We just need a -- just a recommendation to City Council. Again, this
is not a Public Hearing, this is just for us to review and recommend.
Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move we forward to the City Council recommending
approval of Item 4 on our agenda VAC 03-005.
Rohm: I will second that.
Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? Any opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES
