Time Adjourned: 9:00 P.M. Attendees: Jeff Baker Jeff Spang Jim Nanninga Kathy Jones Tom Sowinski Art Prochaska Dallas Ingemunson Jeff Palmquist T.J. Hiles Dave Richmond Pat Leahy Brian Ethington Bill Schmanski Discussion: 1.) PC 95 -14 Leahy Rezoning - Leahy contacted the Burlington Northern Railroad. If the building had the property first then the building would have to be responsible for removal. If Leahy finds out that the tracks are property of the buildings he will donate that to the City. J.T. said the City will handle finding out who the property that the railroad tracks are on belongs to. At a certain time Leahy would like the building to be commercial. For the first year it will be owner occupied. There will be a concrete parking area. There has not been any complaints with the zoning. Baker is happy with the list. Take to i COW. Following Thursday take to Council for vote. J.T. will have documents done by Thursday. 2.) Marketing Strategy - Jim has started on the mapping idea. The maps have 19.00 zoning with 1995 outline /boundary. Zoning with color. There are seven pages, trying to keep a landmark on each sheet. Need to identify vacant property and zone it, put in a book. Maybe Sue Bullock will help supply vacant property and zoning. Prochaska feels maybe the area realtors would like a copy of the maps. 3.) Sign Ordinance Committee - The three people on the committee representing the business community are Joel Ottosen, Janet Dhuse, and Gary Rice. Candi Forginger has joined the committee representing the residential area. Still need one more resident. The Committee will be taught everything they need to know about the sign ordinance. 4.) Preview Final Draft of Economic Development Video - Take to COW. 5.) Possible Annexation Agreement - Dean Fisher Property - Fisher needs to come into the City and talk with us and let us know what kind of zoning he needs. Invite Fisher to next Economic Development I - Page 2 - meeting. 6.) Additional Business Nanninga got a visit from Jim Olson. There is some interest in the lots on Cannonball Trail and RT. 34. Bank has foreclosed on property. Olson would like to put a strip mall in with offices in the back. Right in, right out only on Rt. 34. One entrance on Rt. 34 and one on Cannonball Trail. Golf Course South of Town consider joint ownership. 18 hole golf course. Ropalo's plan is to add more residential and maybe a club house. Golf course on Rt. 47 & Rt. 71. Need to talk to property owners. Baker would like four people from this committee to have copies of Kendall County Plat Book. Nanninga talked with Fox Metro. They are not concerned if they service someone that is in our City. If we can get the FPA expanded to Orchard Road it would be unlikely Oswego would come in and try to take that area. It doesn't really matter who takes the sewer. Sowinski attended the Bristol Plan Commission Meeting. Bristol does not discuss plans at the meeting. Bristol wanted to know how committed we were to our comprehensive plan? Once study of northwest land is completed what are our plans? Minutes By: Mollie Anderson
