 Integrity Hills Development: request to construct cabins, duplexes, and
twelve plexes off Tate Road. Mr. Coxie read the staff report and presented
pictures and a video of the site. He expressed a concern regarding the closeness
of the units to the front of the property to the road. Eddie Wolfe representing the

of the project. Mrs. Klinefelter asked for a summary of the number of residences
at completion. The preliminary plat states there will be 730 units. The existing
road will be abandoned. Mrs. Klinefelter discussed the number of units and life
services for the habitants at build out. Discussion followed regarding
landgrading, bonding, and revegetation. No one signed up to speak. This project

Layton Auto Service: request to convert an existing bUilding into a
commercial auto repair shop located at 282 Wabash Lane. Mr. Coxie read the
staff report and presented pictures and a video of the site. Mr. Layton addressed
questions from the Commission, and stated that he would like to be approved as
special use. He stated there would be approximately 12 cars outside he would be
working on but would not store any equipment outside. There would rarely be
twelve cars on the property at a time, according to Mr. Layton. He will not sell
any cars, and does not plan to do any body work. Hours of operation will be
Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with the occasional Saturday.
No chemicals will be stored on the property. If the additional bUilding is added
the applicant would need to appear again for approval and the project would no
longer be special use. Bob Beatty a neighbor presented a copy of the restrictions
on the property, and stated that no commercial use can be done on the
property. Mr. Beatty does not feel the small road would handle the added traffic.
Mr. Paulson stated that private restrictions can be civilly enforced and that the
Planning Commission does not enforce them. Larry Wilson who lives close to this
property reported that from his property he can't see the Layton property and he
doesn't have any objections to this request. Mr. Coxie discussed the road width
of Wabash. There is a road easement across Mr. Layton's property to allow Mr.
Beatty to access his property. Mr. Layton stated he would be willing to put up a
privacy fence between himself and Mr. Beatty's property. This project will
proceed to final vote next week.

Elite Automotive: request to utilize an additional lot for sales and future
shop for Elite Automotive and Repair located at 575 Beaumont Lane. Mr. Coxie
read the staff report and presented pictures and a video of the site. He stated
that if Mr. Deppe would move the lean to which houses an air compressor he
could obtain more points on the checklist. Mr. Deppe addressed questions from
the Commission who stated that his neighbors are in favor and they are all his
clients. This request will be for two additional buildings for the future. There will
be no more than 20 cars maximum on the property at one time. This project will
proceed to final vote next week.

Old and New Business:
Mr. Coxie explained and discussed the scoring system.

Tri-Lakes Ford wants to add another building within their business. Mr.
Coxie asked if they want to hear the request. Dave Williams representing the
business presented site plans of the project. Since this is in the middle of the
property and there is plenty of room and no buffer is needed, the Commission
would allow this project to be handled administratively.

Fee Structure: Mr. Coxie asked the Commission if they would like staff to
look at raising the fees on all permits. Discussion followed regarding funding the
costs of the office. Comparative studies have been done. Mr. Paulson discussed
how much more could be charged for fees. Mr. Preston reported that Taney
County is on the low end of the fee structure. The Commission would like staff to
bring the studies for them to look at.

Mr. Coxie stated that in the past the February meeting had been used
solely for amending the Code. He asked the Commission if there were some
topics they would like staff to look at to present to the County Commission for
change to the Code. Some different topics were discussed, and staff reported on
some issues which have been sent to the prosecutor. The Commission will not
hear projects at the 2009 February meeting.

Mr. Nosalek discussed instances when cell towers need more room in their
fenced in area if they need a Division III or Division II. The Commission feels a
Division II would be appropriate.

Branson Underground is expanding and asked if they needed a permit.
The Commission stated that they would.

Mr. Brawner asked if the scoring system was an amendable document.
Mr. Coxie stated that if the Code Book is changed the process must be met.

Adjournment:
With no other business on the agenda for November 10, 2008 a motion
was made by Randall Cummings to adjourn. The meeting adjourned at 8:50
p.m.
