Sidewalk variance for Alan Norton-There was much discussion on the sidewalk variance.
Feedback from the County was not favorable to having a sidewalk along Cannonball Trail. The
county has a policy to keep sidewalks out of the right of way and they maintain that this is a
safety issue. The city policy is to have the sidewalks in the right of way. The consensus taken
from the attending alderman to have a connecting sidewalk between Cannonball Hill and
Blackberry North and to omit sidewalk to the east. Mr. Norton has sent a letter requesting a
reduction of fees. Atty. Kramer has looked over the fees and feels that the fees are appropriate
as per the subdivision ordinance. The issue is if there is a restriction of park within a specified
distance from access. This issue needs to be presented to the Park Board for referral, an
obligation of land or cash. This item will be tabled until the next COW and will have the issue of
park vs. cash sent to the park board. The School transition fee is also in question and would
prefer to discuss while a school board member is present.
