A. Planning Department Annual Report of 2004
Ms. McCullough reviewed the draft report for the Planning
Commissioners, highlighting the accomplishments and actions taken by the
Planning Commission over the past year and complimented them on their
outstanding attendance record. She also reviewed the actions of the Planning
Department as a whole, including the compilation of the Zoning Ordinance.
The Planning Commission discussed the action items targeted for
the upcoming year, including updating the Township’s Master Plan. Ms. McCullough
reviewed the required procedure for this task and stressed the need for the
Commissioners’ input and help throughout the process. She noted that the goal
was not to change the complexion of the Township but to address current issues,
such as Senior Housing, and to address deficiencies in the current Zoning
Ordinance and Master Plan.
Motion was made by Salz, seconded by Stefanes and was
unanimously supported to receive the Planning Department Annual Report of 2004
and to forward the report to the Township Board of Trustees, with the correction
of any typographical errors.
