NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Evansville Plan Commission

Regular Meeting
City Hall (Third Floor), 31 South Madison Street, Evansville, WI

Notice is hereby given that the Plan Commission will conduct a public hearing to consider Ordinance 2009-05 that would amend City of Evansville Municipal Code of Ordinances as follows:

a. Replace the term, “city planner” in all sections of Ch. 130 Zoning Ordinance and Ch. 110 Land Division Ordinance with the term “zoning administrator.”

b. Change Section 130-51 Duties of the Zoning Administrator to read as follows:
The city administrator is designated as the administrative and enforcement officer for the provisions of this chapter, and is referred to in this chapter as the zoning administrator. The duty of the zoning administrator, or a designee of the zoning administrator, is to interpret and administer this chapter and to issue, after on-site inspection, all permits required by this chapter. The zoning administrator may designate other City staff or consultants to serve as designees for the purposes of administration and enforcement.

c. Change Section 130-52 Specific Duties to remove all references to specific staff designees by title. All duties referenced in Section 130-52 will be the responsibility of the Zoning Administrator who may designate others to undertake specific duties based on staff capabilities and availability.

d. Add the following language to Section 130-203 Site Plan Application Requirements:
The zoning administrator may waive the certain specific application submittal requirements for site plans or site plan amendments for minor projects where the scope and scale of a project requiring site plan approval does not warrant literal interpretation of the application requirements. Any waivers of submittal requirements must be specifically described and included in any motion by the Plan Commission acting on such minor projects.

e. Amend Chapter 104 Stormwater Management Ordinance to change all references to Section 28 of the Rock County Stormwater Management Ordinance to the appropriate sections of the City of Evansville Municipal Code of Ordinances and make other minor clerical corrections.

Complete copies of the proposed ordinance amendments are available for inspection at the City Clerk’s office in City Hall, 31 South Madison Street; Evansville, WI. All interested parties are invited to attend and provide comment.
