Initiated Ordinance Limiting the Annual Increase in the number of dwelling units to 1%/Year Filed October 17, 1997 bv Patrick and Shellev Cipolla. Attorney White reviewed Clerk O'Connor's memorandum and presented two options to the Town Board for the Initiated Ordinance: (1) adopt the proposed ordinance without alteration (Ordinance), or (2) refer the proposed ordinance to the registered electors for election April 7, 1998 (Resolution). Attorney White read the Initiated Ordinance and Resolution. Trustees posed several questions pertaining to the number of building permits that would be allowed should the Initiated Ordinance pass, inclusion of multi-family dwelling units with single-family dwelling units in the percentage; implementation; concern with employees in . construction-related businesses (loss of jobs); recourse of property owners if they find they can't build, and whether the Town could be held liable. It was moved and seconded (Doylen/Marshall) the Initiated Ordinance not be adopted, and that Resolution #18- 97 (Option 2) be approved, and it passed unanimously. A. Building Permit Policy as it Relates to the Initiated Ordinance. The Board considered a memorandum dated November 18, 1997 submitted by Community Development Director Stamey that outlined building permit application procedures that could be implemented November 26, 1997, prior to the April 7th election. • Upon application for a building permit for a new dwelling unit, the Town shall require a $2,000 deposit for a single family dwelling unit, and $1,500/multi-family dwelling unit. • The Town will accept building permit applications through 2/20/98 for construction of new residential dwelling units. From 2/21/98 to 4/7/98, a moratorium would be in place on acceptance of building permit applications for new dwelling units. This moratorium would not apply for commercial construction and remodels. • Should the limited growth ordinance pass at the 4/7/98 election, Issued building permit applications would be "grandfathered." Board of Trustees - November 25, 1997 - Page 6 Director Stamey reviewed procedure taken by Golden with a similar Initiated Ordinance, adding that in order for a building permit application to become valid, it must be lot and plan specific. Attorney White confirmed that should the Initiated Ordinance pass, the 1% limitation would be in effect 4/8/98. Discussion followed on the moratorium; length of time for plan checking which could include hiring a private source to complete plan checking; deposits which would be collected at the time of application, and which do not include additional fees such as water taps, and the like; insufficient time to implement regulations should the ordinance pass and the possibility of placing an additional two weeks following the election for the effective date of the 1% limitation. Audience comments were heard from Jerry Palmer relative to the $2,000 deposit (too high), and the moratorium (6 weeks) is too long. Director Stamey clarified how staff determined what the deposit amount should be (based on UBC Valuation and Building Code Fee Table 3A). Trustee Barker noted that the Initiative has placed the Town in a position whereby the Town is attempting to protect property owners as best as possible, with increased expense of issuing building permits. The Town must be cautious, while being responsive to the citizens. It was moved and seconded (Doylen/Hix) the Building Permit Policy be approved with the following amendments: the moratorium be reduced to 4 weeks-March 10, 1998, and a 2-week extension to April 21, 1998 if the Initiated Ordinance passes and it passed unanimously. Mayor Dekker thanked Mr. Palmer for his comments. 7. Appointments: A. Museum Advisory Board. Sybil Barnes and David Steiner (re-appointment), 4-Yr. Terms, expiring 1/01/2002. B. Library District.

Board of Trustees - November 25, 1997 - Page 7 It was moved and seconded (Hix/Pauley) all appointments listed be approved, and it passed unanimously. 9. Fall River Hvdro Plant - Request Approval to Nominate Plant to the National Register of Historic Places. Museum Director Kilsdonk reviewed the Plant Restoration Project and requested the Board of Trustees submit a request to the Historic Society placing the Plant on the National Register of Historic Places. The Light and Power Committee will be considering the appointment of a Renovation Committee similar to that appointed for the Stanley Hall preservation. It was moved and seconded (Hix/Marshall) the request be approved, and it passed unanimously. Width of Buildings in Downtown Commercial District. Trustee Trustee Pauley expressed his concern in existing commercial buildings being divided into small retail spaces, which, in his opinion, is a detriment to merchants and the community at large. Perhaps regulations should be adopted that would, in the case of new construction or remodels, place a minimum frontage width within the commercial downtown district. Trustee Pauley believes most lots are in multiples of 25' and desires a minimum frontage of 23' or reasonable- 10'-wide pieces would not be allowed. Attorney White noted that exterior and interior dimensions would be addressed in proposed regulation. It was moved and seconded (Pauley/Hix) staff be directed to prepare such a regulation, referring the request to the Planning Commission for their review and recommendation, and it passed unanimously. The boundary in question is to include the Riverwalk and entire area within the CBD. Staff will attempt to add this item to the Planning Commission's agenda in January. 10.
