Application for Preliminary Plat Public Hearing for Jerry Hansen Property located at 5330
Hansen Ave - 6:30 p.m.: Chairman Garren explained the public hearing process and asked Mr.
Hansen to present his proposal.
Jerry Hansen of 5609 E lona Rd presented his proposal for an Application for Preliminary Plat at
5330 Hansen Ave. He stated that the 1.2 acre property currently has one home on it and was asking
to subdivide the lot to place two more homes on the property. Mr. Hansen stated that the property
would still meet all building codes. He indicated he would remove trees and clean up the property
including the existing home. Mr. Hansen stated this would be an improvement to the property. The
utilities are there, he just needed to bring them in. Mr. Hansen indicated this would be a benefit to
him as well as the community.
Member Lovinus asked for clarification on the lot. Mr. Hansen showed her on the map Lot 7 Block
2 of Hansen Ave.
Chairman Garren asked if it still meets the 14,520 square foot lot size requirement. Mr. Hansen
stated that it did. Chairman Garren's main concern was getting emergency vehicles in without street
frontage. Mr. Hansen stated there was a 35' driveway from Hansen Ave and access through the
alley. Currently the lot is not being taken care of. Chairman Garren asked if Mr. Hansen could meet
his objective with one home. Mr. Hansen stated that he could but would like two homes.
Member Shirling asked about the height access for emergency vehicles. Mr. Hansen indicated there
would be access from the side road.
Chairman Gauen opened the public portion of the hearing. He asked if anyone was opposed.
Julie Sutton of 5354 Hansen Ave stated she was opposed. She stated that Neil Hope has been a
good neighbor even though the property is an eye sore. Mrs. Sutton indicated that there had been no
clean up on the property since Mr. Hansen purchased it. She thought one neighbor was more
appealing than three neighbors.
Chairman Garren asked if anyone was neutral; none, if anyone was in favor; none.
Betty McKinlay of 5315 E Owens stated she just had some questions. She asked if the access to
the property was from Hansen or the alley way. Mr. Hansen stated access would be from
Hansen Ave. Mrs. McKinlay asked if the homes were single family dwellings. Mr. Hansen
stated they were single family dwellings.
Chairman Garren closed the public portion of the hearing at 6:50 p.m. and opened Planning &
Zoning's discussion.
Chairman Garren stated that all lots shall have full frontage on, and access to, a dedicated street
per City Code 10-1-7 C. Chairman Garren asked for a recommendation.
Member Taylor motioned for recommendation to Council, to deny the Application for
Preliminary Plat for the Jerry Hansen Property because there wasn't enough room for emergency
access. P&Z Member Shirling seconded the motion. Member Lovinus still needed information.
Member Hobbs removed himself from the vote because of his friendship with Mr. Hansen. The
majority was in favor, motion carried.
Basement Residential Occupancies Public Hearing: Chairman Garren reminded everyone of
the public hearing process. He then read the proposed ordinance and explained that when
Planning & Zoning had gone through Title 11 they had removed basement residential
occupancies from the conditional uses. He stated that this could potentially have double
occupancies. He asked if anyone was opposed, neutral, or in favor of the ordinance. There were
none. Chairman Garren then opened Planning & Zoning discussion.
Member Shirling didn't agree with the wording of 11-4-3 A, where such uses are deemed
essential or desirable to the public convenience or welfare. She thought this would be better
addressed as individual instead of public.
Chairman Garren asked if anyone had an objection to the way the conditional use was written. If
not, he would ask for a recommendation.
Member Lovinus motioned to recommend approval to Council of the Basement Residential
Occupancies Ordinance. Chairman Garren seconded the motion. Chairman Garren, Member
Lovinus, and Member Taylor were in favor. Member Hobbs and Member Shirling were
opposed. The majority was in favor, motion carried.
Chairman Garren asked everyone to come prepared next month to rewrite Section A of
Conditional Uses.
Bonneville County Area of Impact Agreement: Member Hobbs stated that the process for
expanding our area of impact needs to start with the City of Idaho Falls. Member Hobbs
indicated he would draft the Letter of Intent that would need to be approved by Iona's City
Council. After the City of Idaho Falls, the letter would then go to the Iona Bonneville Sewer
District, and finally to Bonneville County.
Snow & Weed Removal Discussion: Member Lovinus asked about snow removal pertaining to
the clearing of sidewalks. She wondered if the City could be sued for not having snow removed
from the sidewalks. Member Hobbs indicated that it was the responsibility of the homeowner to
remove snow from their sidewalks. Chairman Garren explained that P& Z had no jurisdiction;
snow removal was not in Title 11 and would need to be addressed at Council.
Action Items at a Glance:
Everyone — 1) Wording to rewrite Section A of Conditional Uses.
Member Hobbs — 1) Draft Letter of Intent — Impact Area Expansion.
