The Commission requested that easements for water and sewer be put in along the property. Also, Sticka said Mrs. Mary Block who has a neighboring cattle operation expressed concerns about her cattle and the well being of those attending the church and asked for a fence to be erected along the church property. Tom Grant, the attorney for the church, said he is well aware of Mrs. Block's concerns and said a fence would be installed. Mayor Art Prochaska asked about the timeline of building the church. The Rev. Tom Schofield, the pastor of the church, said plans are to start building the church in the spring. The property sits on 26 acres and the church will be built on the western parcel. Mayor Prochaska said the property currently isn't contiguous to the city, but that it could be eventually.

The committee recommended the request for the review should go to the Committee of the Whole with a recommendation for approval. 3.
