Ordinance
Text Chgs:	Article 18, section 1800.
	Bob Palmer said he was meeting with Claude Coates from Vilican LeMan next
	week and he would take the changes the Commission wants to him at that time.
	He has some changes to Article 18 that is being reviewed tonight. He said that the
	minimum lot size should go from 80" wide to 90' wide in R-1. If a lot has sewer and
	water it can be smaller. The maximum height of structures in all zones needs to be
	raised to 45' except multi family should be 65', and C 2 & 4 should be 80'.
	He also said that the total floor area and the ground floor area should be raised to
	1040', which is the same as HUD requires.
	Mr. Coates has renamed our zoning districts and Bob will see if we can keep our
	current names with a few additions.
	Other than these few changes the Commission was happy with this section.
	Discussion on the Sign Ordinance. No one seems to be happy with ordinance, it is
	hard to read, and the Commission hopes to make it more user friendly.
	Meeting was adjourned at 7:02pm.
