Council Meeting June 23, 1980 Page 2 Mayor Gourley asked if this has been presented to the Park Board and Mr. Schumacher said, No, he had wanted to clear this with the Council before presenting to the Park Board. Mrs. Elsenpeter said she could understand the need for such a piece of equip - ment, particuliarly in view of the problems of tree disposal during the Spring clean -up program. She also felt this should be cleared with the Park Board. Mr. Schumacher pointed out that the period for applying for this money has expired but he had been told that an application would still be considered. Mrs. Elsenpeter moved to authorize Mr. Schumacher to proceed with the applica- tion for State Funds for the purchase of the chipper and in the meantime to present to the Park Board for their approval. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Smeed, from the audience, asked if he was on the agenda and was told that he was not. He said he had called the office and was told that he would be put on the agenda under the Open Mike Portion. This was to discuss hLs request for a special use permit to keep horses. He had begun this request with less than the required five acres. He said he has leases to lands that give hfril the required five acres. Mayor Gourley said he was not on the agenda. Mr. Jaworski said this would not be considered under the open mike portion of the agenda - it should be con- sidered under the Planning and Zoning Board report. Mayor Gourley told him he would be heard at that time. The Public Hearing on Sunset Oaks 11 was called to order at 8:02 P.M. Mr. Schumacher presented the actions on this plat to date. This plat is an ex- tension of Marvy Street. The Tots are all of more than one acre. The street conforms to City requirements. The letter from the Planner was summarized. This area had been indicated as Light Industrial in the updated Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Short recommended this remain in'the LI classification. The Planning and Zoning Board had recommended this plat be denied. Mayor Gourley asked for comments from the developer. 123 Mr. Stanley noted that this -rPa 's not in the best area for development of LI. The flow of traffic for the area is through a Residential area. Mr. Stanley also felt that industrial development in that area is many years away. It was noted that 74th Street is a State Highway. This is a preliminary Plat and it shows these Tots divided'- this would be possible when streets are added. This is also contingent upon the installation of utilities. Mr. Jaworski' felt that due to the limited access for industrial vehicles, he saw no reasons why this should not be developed as residential. He felt the only way heavy traffic could be kept out of the existing residential area. would be to blockade the steeet. Mayor Gourley asked' for `comments from the audience. 'Someone asked the size of the lots and where the water table was in that area. The lots are from 21 to 3 acres and Mayor Gourley reminded the people that all Lots must have perc tests and the installation of theseptic sustems must conform to WPC -40 which has been adopted by this City.
