These are the minutes of the Queenstown Planning Commission meeting held October 6, 2021. The Commission discussed a conceptual site plan for an office building on Melvin Avenue (Tom Davis / Kevin Dey property), focusing on traffic flow, hours of operation, contractor bay use, lack of signage, and suggested talking with adjacent homeowners; Geneva offered to do a property walkthrough. They approved changes to the Queenstown Harbor Golf Cottages site plan as presented (motion passed with no opposition) and reviewed a rezoning request from Ted Baker for 328 Cherry Lane to County SC Suburban Commercial, noting no immediate development plans and a desire to be consistent with the Town’s Comprehensive Master Plan. Town Manager updates covered revisions to the water/sewer code for inspections, a $100,000 FY23 waterway improvement grant application for dredging and shoreline restoration, receipt of $684,000 in American Recovery Funds to be used for stormwater projects and water tower refurbishment, and an upcoming Town Hall meeting on 10/13 to present the trails plan; the minutes also note a Town Election listed as “l1l1” with one position up. Other items: Wheatland’s Forest Conservation Plan under engineer review, concrete panels delivered for boat landing/parking improvements, a fence-standards ordinance set for public hearing 10/26/21, a FY2023 boardwalk grant application, recommendation to approve a drainage repair/grading plan at 700 Del Rhodes Ave (partially county-owned), approval of the Sept. 1 minutes, a housing inspector review of a garage on Dudley, discussion about posting meeting recordings, and adjournment at 8:15 pm.
