REQUEST:
Has the Company filed an application to have Greensferry Road site (for a potential natural gas-fired combustion turbine) rezoned to industrial designation? If so, please provide an update on the rezoning status. If not, please explain why.
RESPONSE:
On June 15, 2016, we received approval from the Rathdrum Planning and Zoning Commission to zone the property back to Industrial. The next step will be for the Rathdrum City Council to accept or reject the Plan Commission’s recommendation. This public meeting will be held on August 10, 2016.
SUPPLEMNTAL:
By a 4 – 0 vote, the Rathdrum City Council voted in favor to re-zone the 302 acre Greensferry Road property to Industrial use, subject to the condition, that at such time as Avista decides to build, it will work with the City on a development agreement to address appropriate setbacks, buffer zones, water and sewage needs, etc.
