Commissioner Simmons motioned approval of site plan, following technical review from staff. Commissioner
Donavan seconded the motion. All in favor – the motion passed.
2. Impact Area – Proposal to Bonneville County:
Ron explained what the impact area is and why there
is a need for expansion. Cities and Counties are mandated to negotiate an impact area. Within the impact area the
County will enforce City standards. Most of the impact area is going around the Sewer District. The biggest change is
on the Southern boundary. In the past, an agreement was made with Idaho Falls that Ammon would not jump Hitt Rd.
thth
The new regional sewer line will be coming from approximate 97 S. near Holmes and running northeast to 65 S.
There needs to be capability, for the residents and property owners, in that area to connect to the regional sewer line and
the regional authority needs to be able to offer this service to help pay for the project. Tonight we need a motion from
Planning & Zoning for recommendation or denial of the proposed impact area.
Commissioner Slack motioned to approve the impact area proposal to Bonneville County, as presented.
Commissioner Butler seconded. All in favor - the motion passed.
