223 4/10/72 this should read Civil Defense Fund. 2. The receipts report should show receipt #4139 void since the $12.50 check was bad. Mr. Marier informed the Clerk that he wished the quarterly payroll report to include amounts paid to all persons we employ such as the Attorney and Engineer. Mr. Cardinal reported that the Parks Dept. has been repairing the hockey fences and have bought paint so that the painting can begin soon. He felt the Council should consider enlarging the warming house to double its size. He had checked on doors for the warming house as requested, but felt we should hold on this until we decide on enlarging the house, and so both jobs at the same time. Mr. Cardinal said he would meet with Roy and mark off where the new ball dia- monds will be built. The diamond which will be at the Hall will go where we have been taking dirt since last fall. Mr. Marier asked who would do the grading; Mr. Cardinal felt that Columbus might. Mrs. Swanson said that she remembered Mr. Jaworski mentioning a cost of $2500 for the grading, and wondered if we would get involved in that amount of money. Mr. Cardinal suggested having the Engineer get an estimate. Mrs. Swanson wanted Mr. Cardinal to get a couple of bids on the project. Mr. Marier reported that the P &Z had come up with a proposal on the minimum requirements for dwelling units in order to amend Ord. No. 56. Mr Marier read the proposals as follows: Single Family Dwellings A. I story - 1000 sq. ft. Split entry - 1000 sq. ft. IZ story - 1000 sq. ft. 2 story 850 sq. ft. split level - 1000 sq. ft. B. In regard to basementless homes an additional minimum area of 100 sq. ft. to house utilities will be required. C. Minimum of 100 sq. ft. liveable areas except baths, kitchens or utility rooms. D. Minimum ceiling height on main floor of 8 ft. and all other floors 7 2 ft. E. Square footage minimums will apply to the basic outline dimensions of the building, and square footage credits are not allowed for living areas on different levels. Apartments Townhouses, Condominiums & Quadrominiums Efficiency - 680 sq. ft. 2 bedroom - 1180 sq. ft. I bedroom - 800 sq. ft. 3 bedroom 1300 2 bedroom - 920 4 bedroom - 1420 3 bedroom - 1040 Planned Unit Development 4 bedroom - 1160 Efficiency & I bedroom - 700 sq. ft. There was considerable discussion on this. Clyde Rehbein displayed the new brochures advertising his various house styles in the Shenandoah project, and made several comments: 1. Two houses shown in his brochure are under the 1000 sq. ft. minimum, at 934 and 960 sq. ft. 2. He understood that the Village wished to raise the tax base by increasing the minimum sizes, but that minimum size doesn't guarantee the value, and he could build a 1400 sq. ft. shack if he used cheap materials. 3. Most other places require a 90 sq. ft. minimum on liveable areas; this is the figure in the new State Code. 4. They planned to have an open house for the Council and the P &Z soon, and would appreciate it if members looked at their homes before adopting this. 5. They include a 2 -car attached garage, carpeting, black -top driveway and a sodded yard with all their homes, all of these items except the sod adding to the tax base. They only deduct $2000 from the selling price if a person doesn't want the attached garage.
