Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the Planning Commission
for the City of st. Joseph met in special session on Wednesday,
February 26, 1997 at 11:00 a.m. in the st. Joseph City Hall.
Members Present: Chair Hub Klein. Commissioners s. Kathleen
Kalinowski, Linda Sniezek, Dan Nierengarten. Council Liaison Cory
Ehlert. Secretary Judy Weyrens.
The purpose of the meeting was to review the proposed Tatoo
Ordinance and the Comprehensive plan.
Tatoo Ordinance: The Commission reviewed a proposed Tatoo Ordinance
as drafted by the City Attorney. After reviewing the document the
Commission requested clarification on the following: 1) What type
of application will be required; 2) The proposed Ordinance requires
a person being tattooed to state if slhe has tested positive for
HIV. Could that statement be changed to require a written
statement; 3) Can the Planning Commission prohibit the location of
a Tatoo Business along the frontage on County Road 75; 4) Church
and public facility need to be added to 68.63. The Commission
agreed that the Ordinance would not be part of the Zoning
Ordinances and tatooing would be permitted in an Industrial Zone
only. The Commission will further discuss the Ordinance at the
April 7, 1997 Planning commission meeting.
Comprehensive Plan: The Commission discussed the most efficient
manner in which to update the Comprehensive Plan. Kalinowski
volunteered to re-draft the Plan and then submit to the Commission
for revision and recommendations. Kalinowski stated it is more
efficient to react to a document rather than to try and create a
document at a meeting.
The Commission established the next meeting date to review the
Comprehensive Plan as Wednesday, March 10, 1997 at 7:00 a.m.
Adjourn: The meeting adjourned by consensus at 1:10 p.m.
