74 Mr. Cardinal stated that the next Planning and Zoning meeting would be on September 1$ with the scheduled hearings for Mr. Miller and Mr. Ken Rehbein. He also mentioned that he had received a complaint on junk cars next to Vivian Rehbein's property on Highway 49. Mr. Cardinal stated that he had looked at 30 acres on Main Street which could be used for a Village Hall and that the owner was willing to give the Village a one -year option (at $100.00) to consider buying the property at $550.00 per acre. The land contains some high ground and is located on a County road set at a nine ton limit. Mr. Bohjanen stated that we should consider putting a maintenance building up on a County road. Mr. L'Allier said that this could possibly be rented for County use. Thereupon, Mr. Jaworski moved to authorize Mr. Cardinal to proceed with se- curing the option on the 30 -acre parcel at $100.00 as stated. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried. Mr. Edw. A. Wiener of 6359 Ware Road petitioned the Council to allow him to put a trailer behind his home for his ailing, aged mother -in -law to live in until her demise. He had not asked his neighbors but didn't think they would object. He had tried to get an opening at the Baldwin Lake Trailer Park but had nor success. He thought it would take 30-60 days to get it set up, has two acres of property. Mr. Bohjanen moved that a hearing for a Special Use Permit be set up as soon as possible for a trailer on Mr. Wiener's property, the first date being available, October 16. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried. Mr. Rosengren stated that he had-received copies of various ordinances per- taining to underground cables, but had had no time to study them. He men- tioned that the power line on the Claggett property would have to go overhead due to excessive water in the ground. Also, the culvert had been picked up from Tom Anderson and the credit for it taken off his bill. The contractors are ready to prime and seal Bald Eagle Blvd., Rolling Hills Drive and 64th West of the freeway this week. It was mentioned that the gravel in the Village Hall parking lot was poor; Mr. Rosengren will ask Mr. Ludwig to fill it in. 1 1 Mr. Rosengren stated that he would like to see the matter of the 30 acres and a municipal building go on the ballot this year. Mr. L'Allier thought that it would have to wait until the December 1969 election in order to give the people a chance to think about it. He thought the property could go on a contract for deed and the building on a bond issue. Mr. Locher stated that this would be okay as long as it comes out of general revenue funds. Mr. Bohjanen thought it should be discussed at the early budget meeting. Mr. Rosengren thought that we should not put up a fancy building now but something that could be possibly turned over to the Road Department later when permanent Hall is erected. Mr. Gotwald was asked to contact construction people for cost estimates on a metal building with office space and a fancy front. Mr. Gotwald stated that this was similar to what several suburban Villages had done when putting up municipal buildings. Mr. L'Allier said that something would be needed soon for a full -time Clerk and road crew. Mr. Rosengren inquired whether Mrs. Howard had made any progress on the trailer court. Mr. L'Allier mentioned that according to the stipulations on her special use permit she could not proceed with the 50 new lots until streets, etc. are finished. Apparently she has not started yet, having had financial trouble. The Clerk Clerk was instructed to waite Mrs. Howard reminding her of the stipulations and
