2 Councilor Todd briefly reviewed the current alcohol beverage ordinance and feels we need to update it. Councilor Todd has also been doing research on the State website. The Alcohol Commission will grant a variance for the distance from a park with City consent. Councilor Todd has mixed feelings about granting a variance, but feels he could give a variance for this. Councilor Crystal agrees with Councilor Todd and feels he could grant a variance. Councilor Littledike would have hoped that the owners would have told Mr. Morin about past attempts to obtain a liquor license. Mr. Morin explained he was told but he took the risk anyway. Mr. Morin would limit the beers served and do whatever the City wants him to do with limitations. Chief Smith explained as long as they follow the State liquor license laws the police department is fine with this. Mayor Marchant explained if we grant this variance we are required to hold a public hearing which would need advertising. The council agreed to hold a public hearing and move forward with this request. FINAL PLAT APPROVAL FOR HIGH STAR RANCH FOR THE WESTERN CABINS SUBDIVISION Jackie Blazzard read through her staff report which stated High Star has submitted a final plat for the Western Ranch Cabin Subdivision. This subdivision lies east of High Star Drive and west of the lake in Super Lot. Water and sewer lines are already in existing right-of-ways, although laterals will need to be installed. The road has been constructed. The developers have shown a shared driveway for Lots &. An easement for the driveway for Lot 0 is not shown on the plat, but Note # states that Army Corps of Engineers approval would be necessary to build the driveway across the wetlands prior to obtaining a building permit or else the driveway would need to be accessed from High Star Drive. Horrocks Engineers has reviewed utility plans and construction drawings. It will be required that a video inspection of the sewer main be performed after the connections have been made. Addresses for the lots are as follows: Lot 0 High Star Drive Lot High Star Drive Lot High Star Drive The Planning Commission has forwarded a positive recommendation to the City Council for approval of the final plat for the High Star Ranch Lot Western Cabin Subdivision provided all requirements listed in the report from Horrocks Engineers are met. MOTION: Councilor Kevan Todd moved to approve the final plat for High Star Ranch for the Western Cabin Subdivision provided Horrocks Engineers requirements are met. Page of March, 0

3 KENDALL CARD DISCUSSION FOR DISCONNECTION OF SEWER AT E. 00 S. Jackie Blazzard read through her staff report which stated Kendall Card owns two adjoining lots in Block of Kamas City. His home is on the northeast corner of 00 East and 00 South. He also owns a parcel just east of his home that is wide and 0 deep. A trailer used to sit on this lot, but Kendall has removed the trailer and is anticipating building a garage there at some future time. He would like to keep the water hookup that is on the second parcel, although he does not see a need to use the sewer hookup that currently exists and would like to have that charge removed from his monthly billing. I have discussed this with both Scott and Gary. They see no problem with removing that charge from Kendall s bill, although they feel the sewer line should probably be capped at the sewer main. This could possibly be done at the time that a building permit is applied for to build the garage. Gary Siddoway would like him to cap the sewer main and put in a clean out at his property line. Jackie Blazzard explained he would like to have the sewer charge for this lot taken off. He will not be using it. Councilor Todd feels he needs to do this now so we know it gets done. Once it s done we take off the charge. Gary Siddoway would like him to put a clean out on the property line so he can GPS it and it will always be there. MOTION: Councilor Kevan Todd moved to accept the request from Kendall Card to waive the sewer charge based on him capping the sewer line at the property line with a clean out. Once this is inspected by the City the sewer charge will be waived. CITY CLEAN-UP DISCUSSION The council decided to hold the City clean-up on June th, th, and th. DEPARTMENT REPORTS MAINTENANCE Gary Siddoway reported on the Public Works Department. POLICE Chief Smith reported on the police activity the past month.
