<br />Planning & Zoning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />September 6, 2005 <br /> <br />said that her son is 14 and has attended snowmobile safety. She further commented that <br />now that kids are required to be trained, things should improve. <br /> <br />Ms. Plombon indicated that Center Street has now been widened and they have more <br />issues with cars than snowmobiles. She then said that she is afraid for her kids to go <br />outside because of the cars not snowmobilers. <br /> <br />Ms. Plombon commented that she was not aware of this meeting and only knew to attend <br />because Mr. Peterson stopped by and informed them. <br /> <br />Chair Hanson indicated it was in the paper and on the reader board and it is too costly to <br />send a mailing to everyone. <br /> <br />Mr. Tschida indicated that the information should have been on the board other than just <br />for today and then noted that most residents do not go by that board. <br /> <br />Ms. Essex indicated she does not have cable but does get the Quad and it is in the Quad. <br /> <br />Mr. Abrahamson suggested forming an Ad Hoc Committee with some of the <br />snowmobilers and some Commission Members to look at this matter and make <br />recommendations for the Commission to consider. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hanzal suggested a Centerville Committee or Association of <br />snowmobilers. <br /> <br />Ms. Essex said she knows the City cannot control the creek but they get a lot of traffic on <br />the creek and their house is 15 feet from the creek and they cannot even hear their TV. <br />She then said that an Ordinance requiring them to stay at least 30 feet from a home would <br />alleviate that issue. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated he would look into whether the City could regulate <br />traffic on the creek. <br /> <br />Robert Thompson, 7283 Old Mill Road, said he feels the City needs to give this another <br />winter at least to see if the more and better education for riders will make things better. <br /> <br />John Fischbach, 1684 Lakeland Circle, indicated that snowmobiling is not an issue in his <br />neighborhood so he thinks the major issue in the City is all the little kids that parents tell <br />to ride around in the streets because they do not want them to go all the way to the lake. <br />He then said that the road is intended to ride to the lake. He further commented that there <br />is only one very small spot on 14 where you can ride. <br /> <br />Mr. Fischbach indicated that he is part of the EDC and he did not know this meeting was <br />taking place. <br /> <br />Page 5 of 10 <br />
