Jim Abraham, Chairman of the LUF Committee, apologized to Council on behalf of the committee for not getting the report to them in a timely fashion. They were still in the process of putting the report together. He did comment on the contents of the report and noted that it included the following: the history of LUF, zoning policies in similar communities, currently proposed.MDA/MFA formulas, drainage and erosion, present ordinances, recommendations and further study. Mr. Abraham commented that the committee was unable to reach a unanimous recommendation but the report would include the recommendations made by the majority of committee members and individual opinions would also be included. Members of the committee gave a brief overview of certain aspects of the report including input received from other communities. In addition they reported on the issue of drainage and erosion and referred to technical input received from Town Geologist Ted Sayre and City Engineer Jeff Peterson. Concerning the lot sizes in Town it was mentioned that the Town's parcel data base should be updated. Council thanked the committee for their work on this issue and asked that they provide a complete written report which the Town would make available to the public. Council further agreed to meet with the Planning Commission before the Commission's regular meeting on April 26th to continue this hearing so that a written report could be submitted by the LUF Committee and the City Council and Planning Commission could further understand this issue. 3.
