dozen units for the sole purpose of renting them. He asked if there was any language the City could
incorporate to prevent this. City Administrator Olson said in general rental units would be permitted
under the City's zoning ordinance and building code regulations.Alderman Kot asked if that could be
done under planning and development. Community Development Director Barksdale-Noble said that

The Minutes of the Regular Meetine of the City Council—September 23,2014—Paee 3 of 3
of the petitioner, said in the actual PUD agreement one of the occupants who is going to reside there must
be fifty five or older.Alderman Colosimo mentioned a bottom age of twenty one. If it is leased then it
cannot be leased to families with children.Kelly Helland said correct.Alderman Teeling was unclear in
regards to the building materials. Community Development Director Barksdale-Noble said Plan
Commission members did not consider the standard that the preliminary plan was consistent with what
was being presented as the final plan. The plans were the same.All they addressed were their concerns in
regards to the PUD. This was already approved by the Council.Kelly Helland said essentially there
discussion exceeded the scope of what they should have been examining. They should have been
examining whether or not the final plat substantially complied with the preliminary plat.The discussion
in Plan Commission revolved around building codes and building materials.Mayor Golinski asked Kelly
Helland to confirm the building materials that are being used are completely safe and meet code. She
confirmed that. Alderman Funkhouser asked if the points from the August 14 memo are still being
addressed. Community Development Director Barksdale-Noble said absolutely.
