• Planning & Zoning Board December 9, 1992 • • Ordinance can be meet. He indicated that he has an agreement with the property owners to remove the signs within 90 days of development of either site. These particular applications have been submitted three times since 1988 - the previous two times the requests were denied because of studies being conducted and /or possible developments occurring in the vicinity. Adams would just like to put the signs up until development occurs. Mr. Tom Schutte, representing the owner of the 34 acre parcel north of the I -35E site was present to voice concern about the proposed request.

Option 2 as recommended by the Staff was to have the trail remain as platted (this was Option 3 of the Park Board) , and Option 3 as recommended by the Staff was to relocated the trail just off the street row on lots 8 -12 with connections to a lake side trail between Lots 12 & 13 and Lots 7 & 8 (this was Option 2 as
