The Planning Commission met April 2, 2025 with five members present in person and two via Zoom. The commission reviewed the Wheatlands subdivision (Phase 1: 109 residential units plus commercial parcels, Phase 2: 89 units) including townhouses, single-family homes, two entrances and a pump station; the developer requested an easement exception for rear-access lots 20 and 48 to move sewage access to the front yard and shift sidewalk maintenance to the HOA. The commission approved the easement for lots 20 and 48 pending a conditional public works agreement, and recorded no objections to placement of townhouses 73–78 on the plat and to the noted “parged foundations” design guideline (motion carried 4–0). Town Manager updates announced a public hearing on the critical hearing ordinance set for April 23, an MDOT memo about advanced air mobility (to coordinate with the county), plans to purchase part of Main Street property while another lot with a structure is being sold, ongoing evaluation of road standards, and a citizen (Sue Donaldson) expressing interest in joining the commission and asked to attend the next meeting. Other items: Corridor Management Plan is on hold, the Nicholson/Clark subdivision has no update, Phil Snyder was recognized as 2024 Volunteer of the Year, the March 5 minutes were approved (4–0), and the meeting adjourned at 6:52 pm.
