II.APPROVE MINUTES FROM THE DECEMBER 14, 2010 TOWN COMMISSION MEETING – After motion to approve and second, Mayor or staff will recap what occurred during this meeting prior to vote for approval of minutes.

III.DISPOSITION OF RICHBOURG LOT – Funds were expended to procure this property for a stated purpose.  More funds (maintenance time) will be expended to maintain.  Stated purpose has been disapproved, so recommend sale of this property.

IV. CHEROKEEOPEN TRAILER STORAGE LOT – Commission approved permanent development of a portion of this lot for open trailer storage.  Commission did not consider this motion would have zoning designation impacts as these lots are zoned single family residential.  The Commission disapproved use of the Richbourg lot and the Snug Harbor lot for the same purpose – Richbourg was procured for this purpose and the Snug Harbor lot has been traditionally used for this purpose.   Staff and Mayor were directed to develop draft rules for this development.  Rules were drafted but should not be considered until zoning issues resolved (ref Town Attorney written opinion).  Commission should consider rescinding approval of Cherokee Lots for a permanent storage until proper procedures are followed.  Commission could allow staff authority to allow limited temporary NTE 2 weeks storage of any items for valid reasons.  If the need for Town development of a permanent open trailer storage lot is valid, recommend the Commission approve use (no funds expended) of the properly zoned and historically used Snug Harbor lot for this purpose.  Draft rules could be reviewed and approved for this development.   Recommend Cherokee Road lots continue to be used for their stated procurement purposes – temporary overflow event parking, temporary construction equipment/material staging and other approved temporary Town needs.   No rezoning may be necessary for Cherokee lots if intended use is temporary.

V.REVIEW/APPROVAL OF STORAGE LOT RULES – Depending on outcome of above, Staff developed rules attached for review.

NEW BUSINESS:

I.POLICE CAR PURCHASE – Recommend disposal/sale of 2 Crown Victorias/unmarked Oldsmobile/55 Chevy along with cash purchase of two new Police cruisers.  Maintain Camry, Dodge Truck and most dependable Ford Crown Victoria.

II.BARON COURT LAND USE – Progress report from Homeowners in this subdivision related to procurement of almost land locked green area within their development.  During September 2010 STC meeting, Commission approved a motion for no cost to Town transfer of the property contingent upon a land owner’s agreement on how the property would be partitioned.

III.UPDATE OF TOWN ORDINANCE, CHAPTER 10 – ANIMALS – Following a September 2010 resident’s request to house chickens, the Commission realized that the Animals Chapter of Town Ordinances is outdated.  During following meetings, Commissioner Tim Smith agreed to head a committee to recommend updates to several Town Ordinances.  Staff and Commissioner Smith reviewed and are presenting a draft update to this ordinance for potential first reading at the February 2011 meeting.  Draft ordinance is attached.
