Mr. Powers commented that he had initially questioned if Jamie Castle could serve on the board,
as she is not a resident of Waterloo. He explained that it was later confirmed that residency is
not a requirement to serve on the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Mr. Morrissey questioned how that had been clarified.
Aric Schroeder, City Planner, explained that attorney Chris Wendland offered his opinion that
based on the wording of the code; residency would not be a requirement.
Mr. Amos questioned Mr. Morrissey about the opinion he received from the City Attorney.
Mr. Morrissey explained that the City of Attorney felt the wording in the code was nebulous and
therefore would agree that residency is not a requirement for the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Ayes: Two. Motion carried.
With no further business before the Council, it was moved by Powers seconded by Amos that the
meeting be adjourned at 4:56 p.m. Ayes: Three. Motion carried.
