Culver Town Council to Meet Tonight

The Culver Town Council members will hold a public hearing tonight to gather comments on an amendment to the Culver Zoning Ordinance.

The proposed changes include lowering the number of parking spaces for general commercial businesses in the C2 district, changing the sign ordinance to allow lighted signs, changes to the height and visibility requirements for fences in the L1 district, also changes in the side yard setback area in the L1 district. Additionally, the ordinance creates permit requirements for solar power systems and building permits for roof and shingle replacement.

The roofing permit fee is proposed at $75 while solar permits will be $50 for micro and small systems, $100 for medium systems and $150 for large systems.

The Culver Town Council will continue their discussion of Becca Pazin’s request to relocate the Culver and Lake Maxinkuckee Visitor Center to the Culver Beach Lodge. Members of the Southwest Conservancy District will return to revisit a request to add two properties to the district’s sewer system as septic systems on two parcels have failed.

The council members will also consider an ordinance for General Fund additional appropriations in the amount of $20,000 after a public hearing is held on the matter.

The Culver Town Council will meet at 6:30 p.m. ET in the meeting room at the Culver Town Hall.
