Gem Labe. City Council Meeting Page 6 of 9 Councilmember Bosak: He feels theoriginal1997 Comp Plan was good and it was in agreement with the citizens who created it and he wants to hold that agreement. Councilmember Bosak vote: No Councilmember Artig-Swomley: She is troubled by Section 27 in the Developers Agreement that stated "no lot would be further subdivided..." and was very involved in the 2008 Comp Plan, and is aware of what the citizens want in this city and this new plan doesn't reflect this.
