Town Commissioners — 2025-02-26

This record is the February 26, 2025 meeting packet and minutes for the Queenstown Town Commissioners, including a 5:00 PM work session and a 6:00 PM regular meeting. In the work session Rauch, Inc. reviewed proposed road design standards (noting cul-de-sac radius measured from center to pavement edge = 40 ft and to edge of ROV = 52 ft, a proposal to set all streets to a 34 ft minimum width, sidewalk/ROW details, a change to red fire hydrant coloring, and a directional drilling standard). Rauch also presented a water quality report for the Queenstown Harbor area that found increasing iron and sediment toward the ends of lines and low-pressure issues likely caused by dead-end mains, elevation changes, and narrow laterals; looping mains and larger laterals or pressure pumps were recommended and Commissioners Willis and Callahan agreed to get cost estimates (President Hardee abstained; motion recorded 3–0). The agenda and minutes list guests (including Patrick Belzner regarding potential sale/development of 6915 Main Street and David Castle of Sunwise Solar for a proposed solar agreement), routine Town Clerk items, multiple infrastructure and policy items (I&I project, new water tower and related Ordinance 25-01 for financing, solar, federal channel dredging, water/sewer connections code, road and sidewalk standards, water/sewer rate study), proposed zoning ordinance amendments (Ordinances 25-02 and 25-03 eligible for introduction), and ongoing development projects (Wheatland’s project and 6915 Main Street).
