Planning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />September 12th, 2019 <br />Page 4 of 12 <br />Deb Fahey, 1118 West Enclave Circle in Louisville, stated that the proposal was a good <br />first step and she would like to see it a bit stronger. Broomfield is planning on drilling <br />very close to the City's southeast border and she asked if Louisville setback <br />requirements would affect their drilling. <br />Brauneis asked about the ability for someone to drill sideways into City limits. <br />Kelly replied the City of Louisville did not have authority if the surface site of the drilling <br />occurred outside its limits. <br />Brauneis asked what would happen if there was something that was up against the city <br />line. <br />Kelly confirmed that the City could not do anything in that case since it was outside city <br />limits. <br />Brauneis closed the public hearing and opened commissioner discussion. <br />Rice noted that the question tonight was limited to the registration amendment and that <br />the City could not legislate for other jurisdictions. He thought it was a reasonable <br />change to the ordinance and not overly burdensome to those who might apply. <br />Hoefner agreed with Commissioner Rice that it seemed like a common-sense first step <br />that did not do too much too fast, especially considering there was no current <br />development. <br />Howe agreed. <br />Williams stated that she liked the idea that they were not needlessly tapping into staff <br />resources. <br />Moline agreed with his fellow commissioners about the proposal. He added that the <br />community should address the issues that come with the production of the minerals. If <br />we were going to use oil and gas resources in Louisville, and they weren't going to be <br />found here, they would have to be found somewhere else. So to be good neighbors we <br />should limit our use of the resources. <br />Brauneis was in favor and asked for a motion. <br />Moline moved to approve Resolution 16, Series 2019. Williams seconded. Motion <br />passed unanimously by roll call vote. <br />DISCUSSION <br />Draft Transportation Master Plan <br />Ritchie noted that staff had presented the draft for the first time last year and tonight's <br />draft included community feedback. She requested thoughts, ideas, and uniform <br />consensus in situations where the Commission wanted to change the plan. <br />6 <br />
