Summary of Proceedings

Post Falls Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting - October 15, 2025

The meeting convened on October 15, 2025, but the scheduled public hearing for the McGuire Annexation (file NX25-4) was postponed due to lack of a quorum and potential conflicts. The commission also reviewed an impact fee report for fiscal years 2023 and 2024, introduced a new staff member, and approved the consent calendar.

Consent Calendar

  • Approved as presented: meeting minutes from September 9, 2025; Harvest Meadows PUD and subdivision reason decision; and Echoa States zoning recommendation reason decision. Motion carried unanimously (4-0).

Public Comments & Testimony

  • No members of the public spoke during the citizens' issues portion.

Discussion Items

  • Staff Introduction: Paige Hunt, new planner one with the City of Post Falls, introduced herself. She has been with the city for four months and is pursuing a degree at Eastern.
  • Impact Fee Report (FY2023 & FY2024): Paige Hunt presented the required development impact fee report. Key statistics: 3.5 million was spent on roads, parks, and public safety projects; total expenditures were 5.2 million, leaving an ending balance of 16 million. For FY2024, major road projects included the Poe Line and Spokane roundabouts (~2.3 million); parks included land acquisition ($1.9 million) and Black Bay Park ($1.7 million); public safety expenditures primarily went to police funding. Commissioner questions clarified that FY2023 land acquisitions included a 15-acre parcel on Hardgrave Road (5 acres for parks, 10 for public works) and a purchase adjacent to the police facility for parking lot expansion. No action was required on the report; it was informational for the commission's role as the impact fee committee before going to city council.

Key Outcomes

  • Postponement of McGuire Annexation Public Hearing: The public hearing for file NX25-4 (McGuire Annexation) was postponed to a date certain of November 12, 2025, by unanimous vote (4-0). The commission cited the need for a full quorum and no conflicts. A motion was made, seconded, and passed with all members in favor: Schlotthauer, Schreibert, Wilhelm, and Kimball.
