Mr. L'Allier accepted Mr. VanHousen's report and requested Mr. Locher to make an early evaluation of it and to insert legal terminology, to be ready for the February P&Z meeting and the second February Council meeting. Mr. Locher raised the question of whether the Council had budgeted for the publication of the document; Mr. L'Allier stated that we had budgeted more this year. Mr. VanHousen noted that the report basically incorporates Ordinance 21C and others such as #39A and #6Q, as well as some building code changes. Mr. VanHousen recommended that the Council consider changing current regoning pro- cedures as follows: that a petition for rezoning along with all connected materials be presented to the. P&2 to consider objectively, and that the Council hold the only hearing on the rezoning; only notices for the one hearing would be necessary. In this way, the P&Z would conserve time and could consider the matter more objectively :~ since they would not have the public pressure; also, we would get the P&Z recommenda- tion and all requested materials before the Council hearing is set; the P&Z could be asked to reconsider the matter if something were missed. Mr. L'Allier agreed that this would help cut out some red tape; this will be discussed next year. Mr. VanHouser was thanked for his report; he left at 9:50 P.M. Mtr. Bohjanen stated that the C&BDC would meet on January 6th and would set the date for the open house. He felt that letters should be sent to all dignitaries or per- haps an invitation card used. He stated that Mr. LeeRobinson wished to have the 3- photographs returned that he had presented at the last meeting. Mr. Bohjanen stated that he had been unable to secure a donation for the flagpole rope; he stated that the bill should be paid with tonight's bills. Mr. L'Allier moved that we write the County Health Department requesting that they were okay. He stated that the insurance certificate for Clyde Rehbein was in order and recommended that the sewer license now be issued. Mr. Bohjanen moved to auth- orize the issuing of the sewer license to Clyde Rehbein. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. The Clerk was instructed to contact the Court on this. Mr. Locher read his rough draft of a letter to Lee Smith containing the information as determined earlier in the meeting. The Council felt that it covered the matter sufficiently. Mr. Locher noted that there had been several prosecutions lately and explained his work in this matter, noting that the load was getting heavier and more time was required on each case. Members had been asked to suggest one name each for the new Personnel Commission. These suggestions were made: Mr. L'Allier named len Miller of Miller Bros. Cons- truction; Mr. Jaworski named Norman Miller; Mr. Bohjanen named Richard Cartier; Mr. Cardinal named Joe Davis, and Mr. Rosengren named John McLean. Mr. L'Allier moved that these persons comprise the new Personnel Commission, that Norman Miller be appointed as temporary chairman, and that they be notified that the Council intends them to convene during January for the purpose of considering the feasibility of-hiring a full time person in the road department who might handle other duties as well. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. Onethe matter of municipal license fees, Mr. Bohjanen asked are we to license all businesses in the Village such as cabinet makers, or all businesses including those coming into the Village to work. Mr. L'Allier felt that the League booklet on the subject should be a guide, but that it was ridiculous to take all of these items; he felt that score guidelines should be set and the committee should pick out which
