to the property in 1989. The new numbers result in an existing lot coverage of 18.3% (rather than
17.6%) and a 4.3% Variance (rather than 3.6%). Ridley also noted a letter of support was received.

OLD BUSINESS
Reconsideration — Conditions of Approval (1815 Diffley Road)
City Administrator Osberg introduced the item noting the item was before the Council on July 18, 2017.
The Council approved four of the five Variances regarding signage.
City Council Meeting Minutes
September 5, 2017

City Planner Ridley noted the building located at 1815 Diffley Road does not conform to City Code due
to its placement adjacent or upon the location of the common lot line between lots 4 & 5, Block 1,
Blackhawk Plaza. Thus, the property is non -conforming. The applicant's representative is asking for
reconsideration of the replatting condition of approval. She believes the City's interests regarding
Condition 2 can be adequately met via a lot combination. The narrative discusses conditions 4 & 6 to the
landscape bed and retaining wall. Based on the property owner's revised approach for the landscape
bed and retain wall, staff supports modifying conditions 4 & 6.
The Council discussed whether or not to entertain the reconsideration request and asked City Attorney
Bauer for clarification. Bauer noted the item should have read: Request to amend conditions of approval
for the variances approved for the property located at 1815 Diffley Road.
Lisa McCormick, representing the applicant, noted they are asking for an amendment of the conditions
applied to the Variance not the CUP. She acknowledged that the building does not conform to City
Code due to its placement adjacent or upon the location of the common lot line between Lots 4 & 5,
thus the property is non -conforming. McCormick stated that because there is no change to the building
or site plan being proposed she asked the Council to consider the lot combination approach that was
the original condition of approval noting the applicant has already satisfied that condition by submitting
the necessary request and tax payment required to have the two parcels combined into a single tax
parcel.
Mayor Maguire opened the public comment. There being no public comment, he turned the discussion
back to the Council.
The Council agreed no changes were needed to conditions 4 & 6. After further discussion, it was the
consensus of the Council that because the lot combination would not resolve the nonconformity they
were not interested in modifying the condition as approved. Therefore, no action was taken by the
Council.
NEW BUSINESS
Rezoning and Preliminary Subdivision (Manley Gun Club) — Janet Manley
City Administrator Osberg introduced the item noting the property is vacant and consists of two
unplatted parcels. The Council is being asked to consider a rezoning from A, Agricultural, to R -IS,
Residential Single —Small Lot and a Preliminary Subdivision to create 10 single-family lots, including a
Variance to allow a cul-de-sac exceeding 500 feet in length, upon approximately 3.9 acres located west

City Planner Ridley gave a staff report and provided a site map.
The applicant, Kevin Manley, was present and available for questions.
Mayor Maguire opened the public comment. Scott Swenson, West End Trap Club representative, noted
their support of the development. He noted West End Trap Club is currently working with the applicant
to install a 6' tall privacy fence along the north property line for safety reasons. There being no further
public comment, he turned the discussion back to the Council.

Certification of the Preliminary 2018 General Fund Budget and Property Tax Levy,
and Setting of Public Meeting Date on Which the Budget and Levy will be Discussed
City Administrator Osberg introduced the item noting the Council reviewed the 2018 and 2019 General
Fund budget at the August 8, 2017 Council workshop. The 2018 budget presented at the workshop
showed a 7.1% increase over 2017. Information was provided on the proposed use of the General Fund
balance, including a carryover that is anticipated from 2017 to 2018 as a result of the compensation
study. Tax on an average home represents an increase of $30 or 3.1%. While the average home value
increased only 5.4%, the overall increase in existing residential property values was up almost 8%, thus
percentage increases will vary from property to property. The City's tax capacity rate is estimated to
decrease slightly from 37.385% to 36.366%, the result of a 5.2% increase in the tax capacity -based net
local levy offset by an 8.0% increase in local tax capacity due to higher assessed property values. Osberg
noted proposed Truth and Taxation hearing will be held at the December 5, 2017 Council meeting.
Mayor Maguire opened the public comment. There being no public comment, he turned the discussion
back to the Council.
