1.      Approval of Minutes of January 9, 2006 - Stephanie Kalasz

 

2.      Ordinance Updating the Moscow City Limits - Les MacDonald

Idaho State Code requires that all cities within the State of Idaho
designate their legal corporate limits each year.  In order to
accomplish this, a new legal description of the corporate limits is
developed at the beginning of the year that incorporates any and all
changes to the City boundary that have occurred during the last calendar
year.  In order to maintain compliance with this State statute, the
attached Ordinance is presented to adopt the official legal description
for the City of Moscow corporate limits. The new Ordinance will amend
Ordinance No. 2005-08 establishing and declaring corporate limits of the
City of Moscow, Latah County, Idaho.

 

ACTION:  Recommend approval of the Ordinance or take such other action
deemed appropriate.

 

3.      Quarterly Financial Reports FY2005 and FY2006 December 30, 2005

financial report for the first quarter of fiscal year 2005-2006 (October
01, 2005 through December 31, 2005).

 

ACTION:  Accept reports.

 

4.   Change to Sign Ordinance Regarding Park Signs - Ann Clapperton

On January 11, 2006, the City of Moscow Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of an amendment to the City of Moscow Sign Code
(Title 4, Chapter 6, Section 13).  The Ordinance, attached hereto, would
explicitly acknowledge the placement of signs that identify public parks
and recreation facilities in all Moscow zoning districts and allow for
standardization of such signage as acceptable to the Parks and
Recreation Department.  The Local Land Use Planning Act requires
governing body receipt of the Planning and Zoning recommendation prior
to public notice of the governing body's hearing.  With publication of
the notice attached hereto, a February 21, 2006 Council public hearing
on the matter may be scheduled.

 

      ACTION:  Receive recommendation.

AGENDA

CITY OF MOSCOW

ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE 

Monday, January 23, 2006
4:30 p.m.

CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS

206 East 3rd Street, Second Floor

1.      Approval of Minutes of January 9, 2006 - Stephanie Kalasz 

 

2.      Amendment to International Building Code - Jim Johnson

The Proposed Ordinance is in response to an appeal regarding the
interpretation of the Building Official that the site plan must be
prepared by a registered design professional.  Although the appeal was
resolved, staff thought it prudent to clarify the Code to prevent any
confusion on this matter.  The proposed Ordinance allows for site plan
requirements to be adopted by Resolution of the Council from time to
time.  Additionally, the Ordinance also would remove the language in
Title7 Chapter 13 because it is duplicated in Title 7 Chapter 8, but
retain the Chapter number 13 for future use. 

 

      ACTION:  Recommend approval of the Ordinance; recommend denial of
the Ordinance; or take such other action deemed appropriate.

 

3.   Animal Related Ordinances - Randy Fife

A sub-committee of the Administrative Committee led by Councilmember
Dickinson met throughout the summer of 2005 to review drafted City
ordinances related to animal care.  The three proposed ordinances
contain edits suggested by the Administration Committee on September 26,
2005:  (1) an Animal Care Ordinance which deals generally with animals
within City limits; (2) a Dangerous Dog Ordinance which deals
specifically with dogs which may be classified as dangerous and, after
such classification, establishes procedures and precautions to maintain
such a dog within the City; and (3) an Animal Care Commission Ordinance
which creates a commission to assist the City in education and promotion
of animal care matters and to act as an appeals board for decisions
which are related to animals and dangerous dogs.  

 

ACTION:  Review ordinances and direct staff as deemed appropriate.

 

4.   Ordinance Creating Tree Commission - Randy Fife

The Moscow Tree Committee is currently functioning under the Community
Forestry Ordinance and because it is thought that the Moscow Tree
Committee should be included as a City Board or Commission, it is
proposed that the Moscow Tree Committee be converted into a Commission
and moved to Title 3 of the Moscow City Code.

 

      ACTION:  Recommend approval of the Ordinance; recommend denial of
the Ordinance; or take such other action deemed appropriate.

 

5.   Change to Sign Ordinance Regarding Park Signs - Ann Clapperton

On January 11, 2006, the City of Moscow Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of an amendment to the City of Moscow Sign Code
(Title 4, Chapter 6, Section 13).  The Ordinance, attached hereto, would
explicitly acknowledge the placement of signs that identify public parks
and recreation facilities in all Moscow zoning districts and allow for
standardization of such signage as acceptable to the Parks and
Recreation Department.  The Local Land Use Planning Act requires
governing body receipt of the Planning and Zoning recommendation prior
to public notice of the governing body's hearing.  With publication of
the notice attached hereto, a February 21, 2006 Council public hearing
on the matter may be scheduled.

 

      ACTION:  Receive recommendation.

 

6.   Memorandum of Understanding for Security for Federal Building - Dan
Weaver

The Federal building is in the City limits and the security agency
responsible for building security is headquartered in Spokane. Our City
of Moscow Police Department is often called to help and it would assist
us with jurisdictional issues and liability to have a memorandum of
understanding with the Federal Government regarding our response.

 

      ACTION:  Recommend approval of the memorandum of understanding or
take such other action deemed appropriate.

Report on Planning and Zoning Commission Future Meeting with Latah
