IARUSSI (CON'T FROM 11/08/10): Tom Parko, Department of Planning Services, stated the violation
on the property is the utilization of a second dwelling, which has not been properly permitted, and the
property owner was issued a Use by Special Review Permit for a Home Business (storage of cabinets
and equipment) in the A (Agricultural) Zone District. He confirmed Development Standard #3 of the
USR permit indicates the site will contain a principle dwelling and a large steel structure, and that
appropriate building permits must be obtained prior to construction; however, the permits were not

obtained. He clarified this matter was continued from November 8, 2010, to allow adequate time for the
property owner to obtain building permits. In response to Commissioner Conway, Mr. Parko indicated it
is his understanding that the property owner is in the process of obtaining the necessary building
permits; however, the permits have not been finalized at this time. Commissioner Conway suggested
postponing the matter for one week, and in response, Commissioner Kirkmeyer clarified the matter has
already been postponed once since the property owner indicated he would follow through and obtain
the necessary building permits. Mr. Barker suggested the matter be recessed to allow adequate time
for Ken Swanson, Building Official, to be in attendance.
(Chair Rademacher issued a short recess of the matter.)
Upon reconvening, Ken Swanson, Building Official, clarified the outstanding violation issue is the need
for the building permits. He indicated he spoke with the property owner this morning, and he indicated
that he planned to bring construction documents to the Department and make application for a permit
for the barn structure which is now utilized as an apartment. In response to Commissioner Conway,
Mr. Swanson confirmed he will require time to review the documents, once they are submitted, and he
suggested the matter be continued for an additional ten days. Commissioner Kirkmeyer reiterated the
matter has already been continued for a month, and the property owner did not follow through with the
instruction to submit building permits. She recommended the matter be set for a Show Cause Hearing,
and if the property owner is able to obtain the permits before the date of the hearing, it may be
dismissed at that time. Commissioner Conway questioned if there have been any extenuating
circumstances, and in response, Mr. Swanson confirmed the property owner did indicate his daughter
recently had surgery; however, he does not know the specifics or date of the surgery. Further
responding to Commissioner Conway, Mr. Swanson confirmed the property owner indicated he would
visit the Department this afternoon to provide the necessary paperwork. Commissioner Conway
expressed his frustration that this matter has not yet been taken care of by the property owner.
Commissioner Kirkmeyer suggested the Show Cause Hearing be set for January 5, 2011, and if the
property owner obtains the proper permits in the meantime, the matter may be called up and dismissed.
Chair Rademacher provided the opportunity for public testimony; however, none was provided.
Commissioner Kirkmeyer moved to schedule a Show Cause Hearing for January 5, 2010, at
10:00 a.m., to determine if the property owner is in compliance with Development Standards #3, #15,
#21, and #22 of Use by Special Review Permit #1250, and whether the permit should be revoked.
Seconded by Commissioner Garcia, the motion carried unanimously.
RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the
Consent Agenda. No Ordinances were approved.
Let the minutes reflect that the above and foregoing actions were attested to and respectfully submitted
by the Acting Clerk to the Board.
