Bill Cole made a motion to approve the minutes from the October 12, 2020 meeting, and with a second from Tim Lewis and with a unanimous yes vote, the minutes were approved. Marlon Eilts stood before the Board and stated that the property will be adjacent to Mr. Eilts’ business and will be used for a parking lot in upcoming years. The house that is currently present will be demolished due to its bad foundation. Mr. Karls stated that this property is the only lot in the area with an R-4 Zoning District, whereas the adjacent properties are B-3, so the property is well within the standards of a B-3 Zoning District. Bill Cole made a motion to recommend approval to City Council and with a second from Tim Lewis and a unanimous yes vote, the motion was approved. Paul Giordano made a motion to adjourn the meeting and with a unanimous yes vote, the meeting adjourned at 4:35 p.m.
