City moves for quicker route to fix fencing problem

 

August 17, 2016



WORLAND – The Worland City Council passed Resolution No. 2016 – 4 to quickly alleviate residents dealing with the survey requirement as part of Chapter 24 of Worland City Code.

City Attorney Kent Richins said the approval of a resolution would allow for waivers. He said the bulk of the work was done by the planning board, and Nick Kruger.

“I put a resolution together to make their ideas happen,” Richins said.

Richins said Chapter 24 said, “It’s created an unintended consequence and shouldn’t be required in every circumstance. The ordinance makes it economically unfeasible to make improvements on property.

Worland Mayor Dave Duffy said the resolution is a result of work with the Board of Adjustment and Planning Commission (BAPC), City Planner Ron Vanderpool and Building Inspector Nick Kruger.

“Because of the need to make a quick change I present a resolution saying we waive some of the requirements and then pass an ordinance,” Richins said.

It was an important thing to do in one meeting, rather than wait until the first of October to pass the ordinance with the amendments, Duffy said.

The resolution is good until the ordinance is passed.

–Other business included the appointment of Jenn Rasmussen as the seventh BAPC member for a three-year term.

Ordinance No. 836 repealing Chapter 12 – Health and Sanitation of the Worland City Code was approved on second reading.
