ZUCK - PETERSON & CO:
Letter from Zuck- Peterson & Co. regarding proposed West Laurel
Subdivision (commonly known as the Kukes land) requesting
that the requirements for an Environmental Impact Assessment
be waived. After much discussion Ken Christian moved that
only portions of the EIA be waived and that a partial impact
statement be required as the City of Laurel is in the process
of updating their long range comprehensive storm, water and
sewer plans. Motion seconded by Tom Bradley. Passed. Portions
of EIA required are: surface water, ground water, geology and
soils, public health, parks and recreation.

January 11, 1979
PB FILE #78 -16 A & H SUBDIVISION:
John MacMartin presented the minor county plat for Americana
Homes. They propose to build single family dwellings on 5
lots. Department Heads reviewed the plat and had no desire
to impose many city standards. Lot 4 and 5 have long "flag
lots" which perhaps should have the culdesac lengthened; however,
County Surveyor Lund would like it left as planned. The road
comes at a sharp angle which County Surveyor Lund says he has
no problems with. Discussion. All lots are one acre or more.
Lot 5 is questionable for development. Motion from Tom Bradley
to approve, second from Otto Preikszas. Passed.
PARKING:
Parking discussion scheduled for joint meeting with the Chamber
of Commerce January 31, 1979, at 7:00 p.m. in the Council
Chambers.
ZONING:
Proposed zoning amendments handed out and added to each board
member's "red" book. Call for public hearing at next meeting
on February 8, 1979, at 7:00 p.m., to go over proposed zoning
ordinance.
John MacMartin announced there will be an all day seminar
at Eastern Montana College on February 8th regarding a new
zoning concept via permits which he urges members of this board
to attend if at all possible.
Meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
