OTHER: John Landers reported that he had spoken with an employee of the school district who indicated that 500 more elementary school children will be added to the district next year creating a crunch on space. He asked if the City is contributing to the problem of over - crowding in the school district by the poor communication between the District and the City. Are they aware of new plats! Is this something the City Council should look at? Maybe the City should take a look at the rate and location of growth. Mr. Brixius explained that the City is working on a Growth Study which should address some of these issues. He added that NAC can assist the City with this if necessary. Mr. Mesich then made a motion advising the City Council that the Planning & Zoning Board feels hampered by not having a growth study to work with. In addition, the Board feels that more resources should be put into this project and that the School District's physical plan should be included. Mr. Robinson seconded the motion. All voted aye. Motion carried. 10
