;;The Public Hearing was held regarding the revisions in the Zoning i�
Public Ordinance.
Hearing. ;' Mr. Tom Benton, Director of Planning and Code Enforcement,
Zoning stated that there had been several meetings between the Environmen-
Ordinance, tal Commission, the Department of Natural Resources , the Farmer
Brothers , and his office. It was reviewed and recommended by the
;Planning and Zoning Commission, at a meeting held July 12, 1979.
jIf the suggested Ordinance is passed on August 6th, the Board of
Adjustment can consider the matter at its regular meeting on
August 7th; if they act favorably, the Farmers can apply for a
.,Building Permit, realizing they must meet all flood insurance i{
requirements and provisions of the Resolution regarding the flood
;'program. In addition to the provisions set forth in the Ordinance,
the Farmer Brothers have agreed to grant to the Division of Natural .,
Resources a thirty foot easement along the bank of the river, to be
'developed and preserved as a natural buffer area. Fred Lasser of
'Natural Resources and Development, who was unable to be present !
;;tonight, stated the Ordinance is agreeable to their Department . The``
;'Ordinance is also acceptable to the Planning and Zoning Commission, `;
4the Environmental Quality Commission, and the Farmer Brothers , and
therefore Mr. Benton recommended the passage of same.
(! Mr. Bud Farmer then appeared and discussed the matter. He
;';stated there had been a lot of hard work put into the Ordinance.
;;He stated they originally got into the matter because they felt ,I
Jefferson City needed a river terminal . it seems as if a satisfac- ;i
Rory compromise has been reached, about developing the environmental
; m
!quality of the river botto , and if the ordinance is passed we
;believe it is to the bast interest of all concerned, considering I
the economy And the environment.
The Farmer Brothers have approximately three thousand feet of
frontage and have granted to the State a scenic easement over the
"entire frontage, thirty feet ddep, with designated points of access
;Ito the river, which they will maintain, planting trees , etc . which;;
''should improve the looks.
Mr. Sam Cook also appeared and discussed this matter and also I
,discussed general operations of the Planning and Zoning Commission. '
There were no further appearances for or against the matter.
