Old Business: A discussion and sharing of information regarding CAFO’s (Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations) was held by the Plan Commission.

New Business: Bob and Tony Seitz approached the Plan Commission regarding a land division proposal. The couple presented a completed Preliminary Parcel Division/Transfer Inquiry Form. The Plan Commission was told that the County has been out regarding the driveway. They wish to separate 22 acres off of a 30.5 acre parcel. The plan includes transferring one (1) dwelling unit allotment. It has an original CSM dated 1997. Miranda moved to approve the land division request with one (1) dwelling unit allotment being transferred. Seconded by Yates. Motion approved by Plan Commission. Moen told the Seitz’s that a CSM must be presented for their request to be forwarded to the York Town Board.
Steven Zipsie approached the Plan Commission with a request that a clerical error regarding their property be corrected on the data base.
Moen also stated that an update needs to be made on the Lien property.
Following a discussion regarding the transfer of Dwelling Unit Allotments, Bubenzer made a motion to recommend to the Town Board that the Land Division/Development and Transfer Ordinance be amended to state that all dwelling unit allotments must be attached to a tax parcel. Motion was seconded by Miranda. Motion approved.
Miranda made a motion to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Yates. Meeting was adjourned at 9:32 P.M by Chairman Moen. The next meeting of the York Plan Commission will be December 1, 2015.
