Williamson copies of the zoning ordinance for C-l and RSC-I.
The Pickett heirs have inquired about the possibility of dividing Ethel Pickett's

that the property be platted since the property has been previously divided.
Engineer Benton stated Ammon City Code requires platting if property is divided into
three or more lots. Idaho Code requires platting if property is divided into five
or more lots. A copy of the code sections dealing with platting should be sent to
Richard Pickett.

minutes of February 4, 1992, for specific details. His plans include elimination
of the junk yard which should be an asset to the City.
