Mr. Christenson was here to discuss the County's revision of the DNR's wet lands map. Mr. Christenson said they are not asking the Council to approve this map. He was here to present the map and give the Council or any interested citizens the oppurtunity to ask questions or make comments on the re- visions. Mr. Christenson was thanked for his time and information. The Council returned to the Planning and Zoning Board report. Augustine - Rezone. Mr. Augustine had presented a request to rezone a parcel of land of approximately 5 acres located along the East side of I35E abutting the service road. There are plans for the construction of a geodesic building to be used for the construction of geode- sic homes pre -cut kits. The Planning and Zoning had recommended that Mr. Augustine be asked to consider an area other than this since this is ER. There were many questions from the Council on this matter. Mr. Jaworski moved to table and refer to the Planner for his recommendations and to require more informa- tion as to the operation from the developer. Mr. McLean suggested that Mr. Augustine look at an alternative location. The motion was seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Mayor Gourley asked for a more complete description of the operation to include a site plan. The motion carried uannimously. Schubert - Sign Application. There was discussion as to the location of this sign and if there was enough footage between the billboards located in that area. The Planning and Zoning Board had rec- ommended approval of this sign permit. After some discussion, Mr. McLean moved to table this matter until the matter of the distances could be checked. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously. The Public Hearing on the Rezoning request by Mr. Schilling for the rezoning of lots in Wollan's Estates from R -1 to R -2 was called to order at 9:50 P.M. This hearing had been continued from an earlier date. Mr. Schumacher read a letter from the City's Planner, Mr. Bill Short, that stated the R -2 zoning was consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and he felt this is a good use of the lands since these lots back up to lots that are zoned commercial. The Chair asked for comments from the audience and there was none. Mr. McLean moved to approve the rezoning of Lot 2, Block 1; Lots 1,2,3,4, & 5, Block 4, and to authorize Mr. Locher to prepare the necessary Ordinance. Seconded by Mrs. Elsenpeter.
