Alderperson Terrence seconded. Motion Passed 3 in favor. STATUS OF PROJECTS Discussion update. No formal action may be taken on any of the following: Great Water Alliance Director Kroeger stated it is underway. The pipes are being staged on Mooreland Road and will start doing open trenching. South of Janesville Rd, there is less right of way to work with so they will be staging in the road. Updates for the GWA will be posted on our website. Hillendale Reconstruction Director Kroeger stated pre-construction meeting on March 9 was well attended. Right now, utilities are being relocated. Detour signs will start going up early May. At the same time, school traffic will be re-routed for pickup and drop off. Contractor has handed out letter to all residents along the road. Surface course should be done by August 23 to be ready for school. Updates posted on website. UNFINISHED BUSINESS Discussion update and possible action may be taken on any or all of the following: Request for No Parking Signs – Lochrest Blvd Director Kroeger stated this request is the one that prompted the idea to have all the Lake Access points updated with signage. In April, at the Parks & Conservation Meeting, they will request for all Lake Access points to have signage to reflect open/close hours like the parks. If the Committee approves it, it will proceed to CC for their final approval. This will allow the PD to write tickets. This should help alleviate problems for the residents in these areas. Request for No Parking Signs – Aud Mar Drive, Audrey Court & Ladwig Drive Director Kroeger stated the persons making this request have withdrawn their request. Request for No Parking Signs – Park Drive Director Kroeger stated that Petitioners from Bay Breeze came for No Parking Signs along the West side of Park Drive. Mayor met with Jack Gaulke with Bay Breeze Homeowner’s Association, who is in attendance, and discussed some options. Jack stated that rather than the No Parking Signs for 24 hours a day, there was discussion that it would go from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM to deter trespassing. The other discussion was concerning a light pole across the street that may be a potential solution. Director Kroeger stated that they are checking into the cost. Ald. Hammel questioned whether it would solve the problem or if they would just park further away. It’s a good compromise, but may not be the solution. Chief Rens stated that they were never contacted when this was going on last summer. Kids still trespass, regardless of signs. They will need to contact the PD so they can make contact with the offenders and either ask them to leave or cite them. Alderperson Hammel made a motion to add No Parking Signs from 10:00 PM – 6:00 AM. Alderperson Terrence seconded. Alderperson Kapusta abstained. Motion Passed 2 in favor. NEW BUSINESS Discussion update and possible action may be taken on any or all of the following: Request for No Parking Signs – Oak Grove Drive Director Kroeger stated a resident is having trouble getting her trailer in and out. This is near Lions Park Dr. This is a one lane loop around and it is a tight area. There are two No Parking Signs there that are not City of Muskego signs and they will be coming down. The applicant is not present. Alderperson Kapusta made a motion to defer the Request for No Parking Signs on Oak Grove Drive to the next meeting. Alderperson Terrence seconded. Motion Passed 3 in favor. Glen of Muskego Lakes - Public Improvements Approval Director Kroeger stated that this is similar to Pellmann Farms and adjacent to Muskego Lakes Country Club. Public roads, water, storm sewer, and sanitary. This will be an 80 unit development. Alderperson Kapusta made a motion to approve the Glen of Muskego Lakes Public Improvements. Alderperson Hammel seconded. Motion Passed 3 in favor. Will Rose Apts. Phase 2 - Public Improvements Approval Director Kroeger stated Phase 2 is going to be very similar to what we have there. Most of the infrastructure is in already. Alderperson Terrence made a motion to approve the Will Rose Apts. Phase 2 Public Improvements. Alderperson Kapusta seconded. Motion Passed 3 in favor.
