  1. Doug has issued zoning violations to Integrity Staffing for non-permitted signs; NorthPoint Development for abandoned vehicles and a 2nd notice to Sandra/Tamara Blackburn for abandoned vehicles.

  3. Mr. DeFelice asked Doug to call the applicant and let them know when a Public Hearing is scheduled.
  4. Doug investigated the complaint from Walt Hardbarger. He hasn’t spoken to Mr. Hardbarger yet, but he said it looks like Sam’s Excavating did a great job of grading the property and it doesn’t appear that it will cause the flow of water to change.
