question was raised regarding the replacement of wetland. Mr. Patch responded that it would involve mitigation with the Armv

Stack's development and pond would affect this area.
Mr. Bill Schneider, a resident stated that he doesn't like the idea of the shopping center and apartments in this area. The
Parkland Mall has trouble filling their stores and he would like to see the downtown area stay where it is and not he created in a residential area. Mr. Patch' responded that it takes months to

shopping area can complement the other. Chairman Salentine

any anchor stores and it can only enhance the area and draw
people to the community. He would like to see the development.
Chairman Salentine asked Mr. Patch about the phasing of the
development? Mr. Patch said that the department store would be
constructed first and then in the second phase the other
stores. Mr. Lloyd Pickart, of the Muskego Fire Department wanted
to know about the continuation of Pasadena Drive and what route
people would take? Mr. Patch responded that if he couldn't
obtain an area, he would go around it. Mr. Bruce Rerger, a
resident, asked where the cul de sac would be. Mr. Lee responded
that it was intended to be permanent--but he could create
another, if necessary. Chairman Salentine said Racine could
become a 4-lane some day once the development goes in and traffic
lights will be necessary.

Mr. Hulbert was concerned about the overall height of the sign.
He is not in favor of a large sign or two signs and would like to
see a single sign by their entrance only. Chairman Salentine stated that the Plan Commission is concerned only with the
architectural approval, and if you disapprove the resolution,
Bank One could go to the Board of Appeals for approval of the two
signs and the words "Bank One". They already have one
freestanding sign. There was some discussion about the use of
the word "Bank One". Mrs. Rector would like to see an entrance
sign without the logo, as it would be confusing to the people
using the clinic facility. The commissioners suggested that Bank
One be told they have the option to go to the Board of Appeals
for permission and that they should talk to the people at the
medical clinic regarding the driveway easement and signage. Mr.
