CONCERNING AN APPLICATION FOR ACCESS PERMIT - SHARI AND DUANE NAIBAUER: Janet

She provided the average daily traffic counts. In response to Commissioner Cozad, Ms. Lundquist stated
Lot B has already been divided and the property owner is requesting a new access for the newly created
parcel. Ms. Lundquist discussed the challenges of consolidating the access points. a In response to
Commissioner Kirkmeyer, Duane Naibauer, property owner, stated to the best of his knowledge the
Recorded Exemption has not been completed and he is not aware that any work has been done to
consolidate accesses. Commissioner Kirkmeyer commented she is in support of allowing the additional
access permit, with direction to staff to review all access points on Lot B to see if any of the existing
accesses can be closed or consolidated prior to approval of the Recorded Exemption. Commissioner
Conway concurred. Chair Freeman clarified he does not want approval of the Recorded Exemption or
granting of the access permit to be conditional upon closing of other accesses and Commissioner
Kirkmeyer agreed. Responding to Commissioner Conway, Ms. Lundquist stated the oil and gas accesses
function as a loop access and she suggested including language that requires removal and fencing of
the accesses should the oil and gas facilities shut down. Commissioner Kirkmeyer moved to grant the
appeal and thereby approve the new access permit, with direction to staff to review all of the existing
accesses on Lot B of Recorded Exemption, RECX15-0169, to evaluate whether there is any possibility
of consolidation. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Cozad, and it 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 Clerk to the Board.
