Public Forum: Mr. Bob Rogers of 1000 Marty Lee Lane stated that the
planning commission had a public hearing regarding the development behind
Marty Lee and that there was a good crowd that attended and they were
opposed to the development going in. He could not understand how the
commission could pass this with the crowd opposing the development. Mr.
Rogers stated he had a problem with the lot sizes being smaller and the zone
was already an R-2 and they wanted to change to an R-2PUD. Which allows for
smaller lots? Council member Randy Winkler who is a council representative
to the planning commission stated he was in favor of the zone change due to
the fact that it was minor changes. Lot size changed by 5 feet and so were
the set backs. Most feed back that Mr. Winkler has received is that people
want the smaller lots due to not having the time to spend in working in
their yards. Mr. Winkler did state that there were other problems that he
has with the development but that this has not come to the planning
commission at this time. The only thing that the commission approved was the
pud and that is all. Mr. Rogers did ask council if there could be a study
done on the capacity of the lines for the subdivision. Mr. Townsend stated
that still had to be answered before any approving of the final subdivision
is made.

Chief Greg Wallace announced that Deputy Chief Dave Guinn was presented with
a plaque from the Shiners for outstanding leadership. David has been a
firefighter for 27 years and six of those years have been with the City of
Carlisle.

vacant seat available and has requested to have the seat advertised on the
cable channel for anyone interested to submit a letter of interest or
