New Business: None
Old Business: Design Standards — Steve Zeier
Discussion was held on many issues within the draft of the Design Standards. The language within the
document needs to be clear for the person who has the task of enforcing it. It should not conflict with
the building codes and zoning codes that are enforced by the building and planning departments and it
should not be so encumbering to the property owner so as to inhibit them or any other new developers
that may be considering Laurel.
Steve Zeier will come back to the October 2, 2014 meeting with the final draft after which a public
hearing will be held.
By -Laws Discussion
Monica is working on the By -Laws and will bring it back to the Board sometime in the near future.
Miscellaneous: Next meeting
The next meeting will be held on September 4, 2014. There will be several issues on the agenda that
require a public hearing and a quorum will be needed.

Monica thanked the board for giving their time to be a member of the board and for giving
consideration to all of the applications for various requests. She recently had a disgruntled citizen come
into her office with a complaint on a subdivision the board reviewed and she found it easy to defend the
board because they do such a thorough job.
Public Comment on non - agenda topics: There were no comments.
Adjournment:
The meeting was adjourned at 7:30 pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Cheryll Lund, Secretary
