establishment to be called Kitty' s Place. Mr. Sticka stated that
he along with many others present were opposed to this proposed
business for many reasons. These reasons include the potential
noise problems, traffic problems, potential drinking problems and
safety and security issues. He stated that he is very concerned
about this and has been canvasing neighbors regarding this issue.
He stated that they would like to keep the Yorkville area a
peaceful area.
Attorney Kramer responded stating that there has been no formal
application received by the City regarding this potential business.
He stated that there was no contract on the initial property being
looked at. He informed those present that the City Council cannot
issue a response to this at this time due to the fact that a formal
request has not been presented. This discussion would take place
at a Public Hearing regarding the issue. Attorney Kramer did state
that the persons are now looking at property further south from the
original property on Route 47 . The City has received a request
from the current owner regarding a zoning change request.
Many citizens addressed the council expressing concerns regarding
the potential Country and Western Bar facility. Those addressing
the council objecting to the proposed business include:
Kenni Rogers
Bob Van Paris
Herb Tripp
Robert Congdon
Mr. & Mrs. Robert VanParys

Mr. Tony Cox spoke concerning his views in favor of a Country
Western Bar without the open air theater.

capricious regarding these issues. He stated that the proposal
must go through the process.
Don Peterson stated that he felt there was a communication problem
and that the City should work with the citizens to correct the
misconceptions.
Attorney Kramer responded to any questions regarding the procedures
that would be followed by the proposed business owners. Public
Hearings would be held and anyone wishing to comment would be able
to voice their views as a part of the official record at that time.
Attorney Kramer also informed those present that the City Council
cannot state their views as a Council until the request has been
formalized and presented to them.
Mayor Kittoe informed those present that Public Hearings would be
held if in fact the City did receive a formal application. Mayor
Kittoe responded to some of the issues discussed stating that many
of the figures being mentioned in the press are distorted. He
stated that the developers would need to follow many steps to bring
this to fruition. He asked if Mr. Sticka could keep in touch with
the City Administrator in the future concerning this issue.
Chief Graff stated that he has completed some research and will be
presenting his recommendations. He also stated that he has a
personal interest in this issue as well and would address the
issues at the appropriate time.
