Steve Platt County Engineer, discussed the progress with the acquisition of right of way for the development of the belt route on 5700 West in Cedar City. Steve also reported that a project sponsored by NRCS to ariel photograph Cedar Valley to establish contour lines has been completed. The results will help in determining flooding potential and FEMA flood map updates.

Reed Erickson was asked to draft a letter to County Commissions located within the service area inviting them to a meeting at UAC to ask for them for a letter of support in locating the home in Iron County.

REPORT ON AFRICANIZED BEE COLONIES IN IRON COUNTY:
Danielle Downey, Utah Department of Agriculture and Food, reported to the Commission on the migration of Africanized Honey Bees (AHB) into Iron County. She explained that AHB colonies tend to be smaller and more readily spread by swarming, sometimes up to twenty times per season. AHB colonies have been documented in Cedar City, Enoch, Parowan and the Beryl Junction area. AHBees are more aggressive than the European bees commonly used by commercial bee keepers and when someone is attacked, it usually brings out a large number of bees to continue the attack.
Miss Downey explained the need to train emergency personnel on procedure in handling attacks of the AHB and precautions to prevent serious injury to personnel responding in emergency calls. Currently there is no plan to try to eradicate the AHB colonies, however as they are found, hives are destroyed. This should be left to professional exterminators trained in handling AHB colonies.

APPEAL OF REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION RULING :

Chad Nay reported that the proposed group home was located in an A-20 zone and on a 20 acre parcel in the Lincoln Miller Subdivision. The Planning Commission felt that by increasing the number of residents and the plan to have families visit on a regular schedule, the increased traffic would have a major impact on the neighborhood and roads.

b. The parking, traffic and noise impact on the neighborhood, if the reasonable accommodation is granted;
c. Whether or not the accommodation will be an undue burden or expense to the county;

h. Without the accommodation, is similar housing available in Iron County for the applicant or group of applicants; and
I. Given the scope of the accommodation requested, what is the impact on the immediate neighborhood.
After reviewing the requirements as outlined in County Code, Alma Adams made a motion to adopt the following findings. Second was by Lois Bulloch. Voting: Wayne Smith, Aye; Alma Adams, Aye; Lois Bulloch, Aye.
a. The applicable zoning is A-20, Agricultural.
b. The proposed accommodation would increase parking, traffic and noise in the neighborhood.
c. The accommodation will be an undue burden or expense to the county by increasing road maintenance, snow removal, safety service including ambulance, law enforcement and fire service;
d. There is not enough information available to determine the extent to which the accommodation will or will not benefit the applicant;
e. The accommodation will benefit the community but not enough to offset the increased costs to the County;
f. The accommodation fundamentally alters the A-20 zone by changing from an agricultural area to a higher density use;
g. The applicant has not demonstrated that the accommodation will affirmatively enhance the applicant's use of his property, or ameliorate the effects of the applicant's disability;
h. The applicant has not presented evidence that without the accommodation, similar housing is not available in Iron County for the applicant or group of applicants; and
