MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> <br />TO: Cass County Board of Commissioners <br /> <br />FROM: Barrett Voigt, Cass County Planner <br /> <br />DATE: May 23, 2019 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: First Reading Agenda Topic for the June 3, 2019 <br />Commission Meeting: Cass County Subdivision <br />Ordinance Text Amendment for Sections 106.4, <br />302.1, 302.4, 303, 303.4, and 305.1 <br /> <br /> <br />The Cass County Planning Commission reviewed the <br />application of the proposed Cass County Subdivision Ordinance <br />Text Amendment of Sections 106.4, 302.1, 302.4, 303, 303.4, <br />and 305.1 at a Public Hearing on April 25, 2019. The intended <br />purpose of the text amendments is to remove language that <br />requires subdivision applications to be submitted to the Planning <br />Office 21 days prior to the next scheduled Planning Commission <br />meeting. This requirement has resulted in a deadline that <br />conflicts with the public hearing requirements of North Dakota <br />Century Code (N.D.C.C.) §11-33.2-05 and creates cost <br />inefficiencies for public hearing advertising fees. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission is recommending approval of the <br />proposed text amendment and has forwarded the application to <br />the Cass County Board of Commissioners for action. <br /> <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION: <br /> <br />Move to accept the findings and recommendations of the <br />Planning Commission and staff to approve of the first reading of <br />the proposed text amendments to Sections 106.4, 302.1, 302.4, <br />303, 303.4, and 305.1 of the Cass County Subdivision <br />Ordinance #2006-1, as the proposal meets the goals and <br />objectives of the Cass County Comprehensive Plan and the <br />Cass County Subdivision Ordinance and all other applicable <br />regulations; authorize notice to be published in the official <br />county newspaper; and schedule the second reading of the <br />proposed text amendment application for the June 17, 2019 <br />County Commission Meeting.
