Building Permit Extensions
Permit U 14-2005-223 — George Webber
Director Dudgeon explained that this is a permit for a new home. They were going to keep the old
home on the site until the new home was completed and then they were going to demolish the old home.
The new home was completed and a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued as of last winter. The old home
has not yet been demolished, however, it is vacant and unoccupied. They have indicated that they have been
doing some interior demolition work and a lot of items have been removed. Since they are doing the
demolition themselves, winter was very cold with no heat in the building, they have had some financial
problems with their business, it has taken longer than they had hoped it would. They are hoping to complete
the demolition within the next 6 months, so they are asking for a 6 month extension to October 12, 2010, to
finish. Jeff Wehrli made a motion to approve the extension. John Purcell seconded the motion. All were in
favor and the motion passed.
Permit U 0343-414-015 and 5123-01 (Lot 42) - Lueck Construction, Inc.
Director Dudgeon explained that all of the inspections, except the final and the Certificate of
Occupancy, have been done. The last inspection was done in 2005. This is a spec home, not occupied. They
are asking for a 6 month extension. John Purcell made a motion to approve this extension. John Shaw
seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion passed.
Permit # 12-2005-315 - Bretthauer
Director Dudgeon explained that this is an accessory structure permit for a deck. Inspections that have
been done to date are the site inspection and the footings. They are requesting another 6 month extension.
John Purcell made a motion to grant them a 3 month extension until July 31, 2010. John Wehrli seconded the
motion. All were in favor and the motion was approved.
NEW BUSINESS
Schaefer Glen extension
Senior Planner Angela Zubko explained that they came to PBZ almost a year ago requesting an
extension to finish their public improvements. They only have one or two more things to do. They want
another year extension since they have not been able to sell a lot yet. John Purcell made a motion to approve
the extension and forward to the County Board. John Wehrli seconded the motion. All were in favor and the
motion was approved.
Process Improvements — Ideas for Shortening Petition Process
Director Dudgeon explained that he handout an outline and some background information. He stated
that this is at it primarily pertains to the rezoning requests, zoning map amendments, zoning text
amendments, variances and Special Use requests. It also affects requests for A-i Conditional Uses for building
permits, and he has an additional alternative idea for this that he will bring up later. He went on to explain
that right now the minimum statutory process for a zoning text amendment or a zoning map amendment is
they are required to go to the Zoning Board of Appeals, who conducts the finding of fact and forwards their
