Meeting was called to order at 6:30 PM in Riverdale Council Chambers. Building

Montie informed the commission that the changes and updates submitted by the
committee for the Subdivision Ordinance was approved by the council. Per Mayor
Franklin this was effective in October 2012. Each member was given a current copy of
the Subdivision Ordinance.
Montie informed the commission that the changes and updates submitted by the
commission for the Zoning Ordinance has not yet been approved and that according to
Mayor Franklin, this is still in the Mayor and Council's hands. Mayor Franklin cited
some small issues such as typos, non-existent city employees, concerns that the
various commercial categories are confusing, and confusion regarding the building
permit process. Currently the City's Council, Eric Long, is reviewing the most recent
draft and MSA has been requested to produce a more readable zoning map. When
these things are complete, the Planning and Zoning Commission will be asked to do a
further review of the ordinance.
The commission discussed the landscape plan for Brenny's addition next to their current
store. The applicable sections of the Zoning Ordinances were reviewed versus the
landscape plan submitted by Brenny's and no deficiencies were found. The commission
voted unanimously to approve Brenny's Landscape plan, contingent upon inspection at
completion to assure compliance with the plan and the applicable sections of the Zoning
Ordinance. Montie will send a letter to Brenny's notifying them of our decision and also
to the Scott County Building Inspector requesting that he include the landscaping as
part of his final inspection prior to granting occupancy.
No future meetings are scheduled at this time.
Meeting was adjourned at 7:00 PM
