These are the minutes of the Queenstown Planning Commission meeting held March 1, 2023. The commission approved an Eagle Scout project by Kayden Curian to install three boat safety stations and reviewed dock work and pilings estimates (one estimate at $11,000, others over $50,000). A $100,000 DNR grant was reported for a federal channel dredging study/concept drawing and property-owner approvals for investigation are being sought; commissioners suggested adding research on funding sources to the project scope. Staff reported meetings with Comcast about bringing internet/cable in late 2023/early 2024 and with Haven Ministries and Shore Fellowship about renovating part of a church to provide resources for displaced individuals. Old-business updates included Wheatlands PWA phase 1, review of road design standards, the Q-town Corridor Management Plan (noting US-301’s scenic byway classification), and a pending subdivision application; new-business items included a preliminary concept for a par-3 executive golf course and event barn and the passing of former historical committee member Kit Foster. The February minutes were approved and the meeting adjourned at 7:32 pm.
