BUSINESS
AB 02-23 Impact Area Negotiations
Chairman Gestrin called the meeting to order and announced that the Board of County
Commissioners and City Council were conducting this informal public meeting to gather
input from Impact Area residents regarding the ongoing Impact Area Agreement
negotiations.
Mr. Kirkpatrick summarized the terms of the current Impact Area Agreement, focusing
on the status of the Impact Area Planning & Zoning Commission. He explained the
proposed changes that the City Council and Board of County Commissioners agree
upon, including:
• The McCall Area Comprehensive Plan will apply in the Impact Area.
• The McCall Zoning Code will apply in the Impact Area.
• The County Commissioners will make final decisions in the Impact Area.
Mr. Kirkpatrick stated that the City has proposed that a single P&Z review and make
recommendations on planning and zoning applications in both the City and the Impact
Area. The membership of the single P&Z would be jointly appointed by the Council and
the Board, and would be made up of City residents and Impact Area residents. The
single P&Z would make recommendations to the Board on Impact Area items and to
the City Council on City items.
Chairman Gestrin invited comments from the public. Thirteen members of the public
addressed the Council and Board. All expressed their desire to see a separate Impact
Area P&Z. Most expressed concern over adequate representation of Impact Area
residents, a desire to have the County control development, and general displeasure
with all things related to the City. Those who spoke included: Harold Lukecart, Bill
Hardin, Kathy Jones, Tony Gill, Bob Dobson, Steve Bixby, Julie Eddins, Scotty
Davenport, Doug Woods, Douglas MacNichol, Carl Ruhkala, Peter Johnson, and Don
Green.
