C 7. Old Business A. Letter from Community Services Advisory Council regarding pro- posed park improvements and memo regarding wind screens for tennis courts . I believe we have addressed most of the points in the letter with the exception of the location of the tennis courts and the wind screens. The staff concurs with the recommendation regarding the location of the tennis courts however, there are some serious reservations about the wind screens. The reservations are based upon the cost and the probability of vandalism to the screens. Vandalism in the parks is more extensive each year and the screens would be an easy target. We seem to get little help from the users of the park who don't commit vandalism or the residents in apprehending vandals so I question how long the screens will last. At the urging of the tennis buffs, we installed tightening devices for the nets this year and we have had numerous cables broken by people misusing them and to date have had no reports of who did the damage. ACTION: Council. B. Request for extension of conditional use permit for retirement home - First American Care Facilities, letter attached. ACTION: Council. C. Request for reconsideration of Variance Request by Berger Transfer. Paul Luxem, letter from Control Data Corporation. Berger Transfer representatives will be present. The Zoning Ordinance requires that the front setback be equal to the average of the adjacent buildings which would require that Berger setback the front of their building 5 feet, even if the variance for the side yard was granted. ACTION: Council. 8. New Business A. Letter from residents on Skycroft Drive regarding traffic problems. Letter attached. Three residents have contacted me and indicated that they and their neighbors will be present at the meeting. ACTION: Council. 9. Communications/Petitions A. Letter from Poppin Fresh Pies restaurant regarding proposed improvements. I talked to Mr. McConkey and he seemed most concerned about whether the council would consider :letting them extend their building to the north at the present setback. The parking as outlined would meet the ordinance. ACTION: Council. (2)
