Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, April 6, 1988 <br /> Page 4 <br /> STATUS REPORT; Member Dennis Probst, Chair of the Planning Commission ad <br /> LAND STUDY hoc committee, advised that the Task Force met March 16 <br /> • I-35W & I-694 and 23, and determined that the development of this site <br /> should be pro-actively controlled, as some undesirable <br /> uses had been presented. He stated desirable development in the area is <br /> constrained by lack of adequate access and other factors. <br /> Probst indicated the Task Force had agreed to a three-phase approach: <br /> 1. Investigation and inventory of existing conditions, problems and options <br /> for financing. <br /> 2. Based on #1, set goals and objectives of what we would like to see happen. <br /> 3. Prepare implementation strategy and request Council action on plan. <br /> Probst advised it was hoped the above could take place within a two or three <br /> month time period; that informal discussions with developers had transpired, that <br /> with proper pro-active planning and an aggressive approach, there could possibly <br /> be a doubling of existing tax base. <br /> In conclusion, Probst recommended the Planning Commission request Council <br /> authorize funds, in the amount of $5,000.00, to be expended for the Planning and <br /> Engineering consultants' technical expertise, and which would take the Task Force <br /> through the second phase of the study. <br /> Moved by McGraw, seconded by Meury, resolved that the <br /> Planning Commission requests Council approval of an expenditure, not to exceed <br /> $5,000, for technical experts to enable the Planning Commission task Force to <br /> • pursue options to proceed with Preliminary Stage 1 and 2 of the study area. <br /> Motion carried. (McGraw, Meury, Zehm, Malone, Curtis, Martin, Probst and Carlson <br /> voting in favor; Petersen opposed) (8-1) <br /> COUNCIL REPORT Councilmember Winiecki reported on items of interest to <br /> the Commission. <br /> DESIGNATE ALTERNATE Member Zehm suggested Commission request Council <br /> designate which of the newly appointed Planning <br /> Commission members would serve as the Alternate.
