Ordinance Amendment: Mr. D’Andrea reported there is a proposal
to increase the size of the ZBA from 5 to 7 members. While each

limit.

Schumacher would like her and Mr. Bateman to sit down and draft
language for the ordinance amendment regarding the ZBA members.
Motion to amend passed.
Mr. Bateman would like a sentence in the amendment to state a
term limit will be determined by draw or flip of a coin.

WL-B at 7:30p.m. Mr. D’Andrea reported that most likely, the

County Board passed conditional uses, does he need to resubmit this
application.
A motion was made by Mr. Bateman, seconded by Mr. Hepler,

for the two parcels, since he already applied before the county
board changed the ordinance to conditional use.
