The September 13, 2023 meeting and public hearing of the Red Bud Planning Commission was called to order by Chairwoman Andrea Letcher-Martin at 7:36 p.m.
MEMBERS PRESENT: Janet Braun, Jeff Hicks, Andrea Letcher-Martin, John Holzum, Robbie Aubuchon and Scott Voss.
CITY OFFICIALS PRESENT: Aldermanic Liaison of the Planning Commission: Alan Piel, Jeff Mueller: City Zoning Administrator.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: None
HEARING: The City of Red Bud has filed an application for a variance to reduce building setback distances in the new RBBP. The highway side yard building setback will be reduced to 50’ and the side yard and backyard setbacks will be reduced to 25’ for all lots within the park.
Jeff Mueller stated the lots are smaller than the current East Industrial Park, variance will allow for more space for business and lots without the empty space. In the East Industrial Park lots are larger and only about ½ of the lot space is being utilized. Smaller lots are more desirable and useful to potential businesses.
Motion was made to accept the variance by John Holzum and seconded by Robbie Aubuchon. All in favor, variance passed.
OTHER ITEMS
Approval of prior months meeting minutes.
Jeff Hicks made the motion with Scott Voss as second. All approved and motion carried.

If anyone has any specific question’s please have them to Andrea by the end of September.
One hearing will be conducted in October. Domino’s Pizza has completed an application for a variance in the old Deterding Drugs building on S Main St for a drive-thru on the North side of the building.
