Committee Members: Montie Gauss^, Craig Clark, Dennis Stolk, Heather
Wren*, Nancy Ulrich
Published Agenda: - Election of Officers, Clarification of questions from Council
concerning Planning and Zoning Code
Meeting was called to order at 6:30 PM in Riverdale City Hall.
As this was the first meeting of the year, officers were elected as follows: Montie
Gauss, Chairman and Dennis Stolk, Vice Chairman.
Mayor Sonya Paddock had returned the most recently updated zoning ordinances with
some questions for the commission. The committee reviewed these questions as
follows and made the following recommendations.
• P08 - Section 21.B refers to building official in two places, who should that be.
Recommendation is Zoning Inspector or Designate.
• P36 - The Section 61.A.6 references to Section 15 are wrong, what should they
be? They should be 61A.2, 61A.3, 61A.4, and 61A.5.
• P71 - Section 65.A.4.3.m and n refer to the community development director,
who should that be? This should be the City Engineer
• P76 - Section 65.A.8.2 references the city planner, who should that be? This
should be Zoning Inspector of Designate.
• P77 - Section 72 is labeled incorrectly, it should be Section 71.
• P85 - Section 122 refers to County Building Inspector in one place and Building
Inspector in another. Should they both be County Building Inspector? Or should
it be County and Riverdale Building Inspector? Both places should read Zoning
Inspector.
• P88 - Section 128 has been added and was not on the copy we used last time. It
has three references to building official, who should that be? It should be county
building inspector or designate.
• P94 - Section 160 is all about Building Inspector, who should that be? All
references should be replaced by Zoning Inspector, including in the Table of
Contents for Article XVI, Section 160.
• On the third page of the table of contents, Article XIII: Board of Adjustment
should read Article XII: Board of Adjustment
• P96 - The last sentence on the page references the Planning Commission, who
should that be? In the third line of Section 181, the sixth line, and the last line,
Planning Commission should be replaced with Planning and Zoning Commission.
• We discussed that a Fee Table was needed for page 89 and that fees are
referred to on page 04. Gauss agreed to get some comparative data and we will
address at a future meeting.

• Updates to the zoning map that Mayor Paddock had asked about, were also
discussed. The commission agreed that the small triangle of land by Belmont
Avenue and Valley Road be designated R-2 just as is the adjacent area. The
commission asked for further clarification of why the small R-2 area at the
southwestern edge of Riverdale should be redesignated R-1. They also
requested further information why the road north of the tank farm in Southern
Riverdale should be designated M-2. Gauss agreed to obtain further information
and add this to a future agenda.
Montie informed the commission that Brenny's had received a 90 day extension to
complete their landscaping plan due to the inclement weather and if needed he would
send a reminder letter to them of their due date.
Gauss also informed the commission that Mayor Paddock has requested that we review
the fence height ordinance at a future meeting.
The next meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission was set for May 27th at 6:30
PM at City Hall. The agenda is tentatively set as follows:
• Wrap up of Zoning Ordinance Changes
• Fence Heights
• Brenny Update
• Any Other Business
•
Meeting was adjourned at 8:30 PM
