Sugar City, Idaho – The Sugar City Planning and Zoning committee has assigned a three-person committee to represent Sugar City in an Impact Area agreement with Rexburg and Madison County.
The three members of the committee were picked and assigned by the Planning and Zoning Commission Chair Christine “Sam” Lines. The spokesman/negotiator is Tom Fleming, assistant secretary, and the advisers are Steve Hawkes, assistant chair, and David Ogden, commissioner.
Brent McFadden, a representative of sorts, was suppose to attend the meeting but was absent. He was suppose to present on the impact area agreement that is suppose to take place at a date that has not yet been arranged.
In McFadden’s absence it was the committee’s understanding that the proceedings at the impact area agreement will be to correlate Rexburg’s impact areas with Sugar City’s. Such as if Sugar had a Residential-Agricultural District in their impact zone that was aligned with a Highway Commercial District in Rexburg’s impact zone. They would hope to align another coinciding district to decrease any problems. This is the committee’s understanding.
The new impact area agreement must be signed by five different entities to make it official. These entities are Rexburg, Sugar City, Madison County, Newdale, and Teton City.
The three-person committee Sugar City is sending to the meeting will meet with two other three-person committees from Rexburg and the County. After the agreement has been signed this then nine-person committee will meet if someone in the impact areas wishes to build, to ether approve or disapprove the development. This way that person will not have to go to each entity individually to make an appeal to build.
The County has made this request so that Sugar City’s zones and ordinances coordinate with Rexburg’s.
