Minutes by Otto, seconded by Peter. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action:
a. Brian Newell stated that his well had gone dry and that he could not
drill deeper at the location it was now in because the previous
residents had built a carport over the well. To drill a new well in a
different location is very expensive and on a cash basis which he does
not have. He requested that we allow him and Tom Sullivan to re-plat
their property which would make a part of his property in the Village
and give Tom Sullivan a part of his property in the County. Kathryn
Griffin advised that the Newell's are also willing to be annexed to the
Village. Brian Newell will be approximately 280 yards from the current
water line at the point where the tap will go in and has agreed to pay
all connection fees from the current water line to the tap and from the
tap to his home. Peter Renich made a motion that we agree to the plat
of the property and present this agreement to the Village Trustees and
Mayor, Mary Brothers seconded - the Motion carried with no dissenting
votes. b. Impact fees - This discussion was regarding future
development and new development especially in the ETZ area. Otto
requested that Kathryn get the Ordinance from Ruidoso that concerns
their impact fees. Peter suggested that we table this discussion while
he does some research in communities like our. This item will on the
November Agenda. C. Water Taps outside the Village limits - This is
being tabled until November meeting while the guidelines for available
water supply or investigated. d. Annexation - This item was included
with Water Taps and it was decided that the Committee members will
prepare thoughts and recommendations on this for the November meeting.
It was discussed that guidelines and priorities for annexation be
considered, especially if the property is entirely surrounded by the
Village. e. Multiple housing on one lot - There is a concern with this
because the Village currently has no regulations concerning individual
lots and developing multi-family units on single family lots. A further
concern was addressed regarding water taps and septic systems. It was
suggested that this would be a commercial entity because it would be
developed for rentals and not personal use. What is the regulation
concerning commercial entities and water taps. How would we write this?
The committee members will come up with concepts for the November
meeting.
