Public hearing:
Coyote Meadows Rezone - (Paula Wilderman disclosed that the attorney who wrote a letter about this rezone was an attorney she had previously done business with; board felt it was not necessary for her to recuse herself.) Baseline planner presented details of rezone.
1) Rezone 60.36 acres from ag (A) to ag residential (AR).
2) Minor residential development would create 6 (5 new) lots on this property with individual wells and septic.
3) Maintains rural character of county.
Applicant: do not have a road agreement completed (lot owners would share in cost of road maintenance because it's a private road - Ranch Road). If it was a county road, the developer would have to give up 1 lot due to necessity of 10-acre minimum size for AR zoning.
Citizens own the road so have not agreed to what developer wants. Safety concerns for kids on school busses expressed; errors in documents and discrepancies in numbers revealed; purchase of mineral rights agreement from Anadarko (coal).
Public comment: raised many issues - safety concerns at the intersection, road ownership, traffic, water, and potential to open up big residential area for development.
The PC decided to delay a decision on this rezone for further study; it will be continued until November 15, 2016.
