OLD BUSINESS

A. Plan of Conservation and Development – follow-up (added to the agenda by a vote of the members)
G. Rockwell moved, seconded by E. Auer, to add this item to the agenda. The motion carried unanimously. Terry Doyle sent a memo to the Planning & Zoning Commission discussing the potential re-zoning of sensitive areas that are deemed important to this commission. P&Z is not able to re-zone specific pieces of property but they can put specific language into the Plan of Conservation and Development that regulations can be based on. Areas that are in watershed may have some protection based on the Plan.

NEW BUSINESS

A. New members
Sheryl Mala and Cindy Lippert were welcomed to the commission. This is the last meeting for Bob Tanko whose job relocation will prevent him from attending the meetings on a regular basis. Bob has been a member of the commission for several years and his experience and knowledge will be missed.

Tom Gannoe, from Gannoe Pools, discussed a proposal for a 10’ x 18’ x 4’ deep pool that is within the wetlands review area. The existing wooden deck will be replaced by a raised patio. Mr. Gannoe discussed the process that will take place to dewater when there is a heavy rainfall. Compacted processed soil will be brought on-site for the pool and patio. Members will inspect the site on Saturday, January 19th at 8:30 a.m.

C. Scheduled meeting on February 12, 2008
