I """""_ PERSONAL APPEARANCES
MUSK-KEE-GUAC DEVELOPMENT - Mr. A1 evinrude appeared at the meeting
and presented a revised plan of the proposed development on McShane Drive
showing a total of 180 units, of which 108 are two-bedroom units and 72 are
three-bedroom units. He indicated that the project is now broken up into
a condominium development and is proposed for E-2 zoning and that there
would be two acres plus of open space. It was noted by the Commission that
the distance between the buildings would be 40 feet and that the size of
the buildings would be 60' x 80'. In answer to questions from Mr. Basse,
it was determined that ownership of the lake would be by the development
and there would probably not be a public access unless the owners thought
differently. Mayor Gottfried advised the Commission that the Council is
awaiting action by the Commission on the original rezoning petition which
was denied by the Council and had come back to the Commission for review.
Ald. Schaumberg moved to recommend denial to the Council of the original
petition which had been submitted by Jean Wallner and Harold DeBack on
May 24, 1971, to change the existing 1-2 and E-3 to RSA with Overlay
Planned Development. Seconded by Mr. Raimann. Motion carried.
GOLD ROW CONDOMINIUMS - Mr. A1 Evinrude also appeared regarding the
8-acre proposed development in the vicinity of College Ave. and Gold Dr.
He reviewed his proposal of 48 two-bedroom units (6 units per acre) and
the parking area for two cars per unit. He indicated there would be 20%
of open space. Dr. Mangiamele stated that the area zoned for business
did not seem to be working economically and that town houses could possibly
be the best use for the area. Mr. Lee questioned the possibility of develop-
ing the area with less density than the proposed six units per acre or to
RSA zoning. Mr. Jerry Roblee, one of the sponsors of the proposed develop-
ment, spoke in favor of the proposal indicating that the former commercial
business had failed and it was his feeling that the area did not lend itself
for business due to low traffic count, etc. Chairman Gottfried advised the
Commission that no action was necessary at this time since the city has not
received a formal petition from the owners.

e RICHARD J. HANAGAN - W182 S8330 Racine Ave. - The Commission reviewed
a sketch for division of the Dorothy Petrovic property on Gold Drive in
Section 5. Mr. Hanagan advised that it is his intent to build a home on
one of the four lots giving a 30-ft. reservation for roads in order that
the back lots could be served either by cul-de-sacs or a through road to
Hillendale Drive. Mayor Gottfried advised that this is a logical division
and that they are providing the possibility of access giving people in
back a way for division of their lands when the time comes. Discussion
took place regarding road dedication and Mayor Gottfried advised the
Commission that the preliminary plat could be prepared and in the meantime
he would contact the City Attorney to get his interpretation of what
Mr. Hannigan's dedication would mean to the city. Ald. Schaumberg moved
to approve the sketch for division of the Dorothy Petrovic property on
Gold Drive and that the Commission would be receptive to a preliminary
plat subject to the necessary dedication of reservation for road purposes.
Seconded by Mr. Basse, motion carried.
COMMUNICATIONS AND MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS
The recording secretary read the following communication from
JOHN P. STRASSER, JR.: Re: Expansion of Conditional Use #15
"Dear Mr. Gottfried:
Please be informed that we are aware of the conditions agreed
upon to have our driveway asphalted within (2) two years (July 23,
1970-1972) and also the condition to tear down the existing family
building within (3) three years, (July 23, 1970-1973)
At the present time, we are just a few weeks away from having
the building torn down completely. However, we have not commenced
asphalting the driveway until the building is completely gone.
We would like to have the house completely cleared away from the
site before we asphalt the driveway because the asphalt would
extend to where the building is at the present time.
Therefore, we are requesting an extension to the (2) two year
period. We will anciously await your reply.
We are,
Sincerely yours,
JOHNNY'S PETROLEUM PRODUCTS
/s/ John P. Strasser, Jr."
