September 4, 1990 meeting. Chairman Salentine advised that the
for Robert Schaefer. This item was deferred from the
Common Council, at their meeting held September 11, 1YY0, had
directed a couple of questions back to the Commission to
address. Ald. D. Sanders noted the following concerns of the
Council: 1. determination as to the validity of the
environmental assessment study request; 2. appropriateness of
the 00s zoning for the type of operation being proposed; 3.
possibilty of rezoning a lesser area than originally petitioned;
4. possibility of conditional zoning; and 5. clarification of
the time limit for construction of the house and how requirement
will be implemented.
1. Ald. D. Sanders referred to a copy of a letter submitted to
the City by Mr. Robert Zielinski, an adjoining property owner,
that he wrote to Mr. James Morrissey, DNR, requesting an
environmental review of property. Ald. Sanders explained that
the wooded area on this property had been designated as a
secondary environmental corridor and the council felt an
environmental assessment study should be done. The hearing also
brought up concerns on odor of diesel fumes, etc. Concern was
voiced over whether the DNR has jurisdiction in this case and if
DNR would accept a request coming from a citizen or would they
feel it is the City's responsibility to make these
request to contact the DNK to determine if the DNR has any
determinations. Gerald Lee was receptive to the Commissioners'
jurisdiction and to respond to Mr. Zielinski.
2. The Council was questioning if this type of special business
is compatible with surrounding area and underlying zoning.
Gerald Lee explained that 00s is for light business uses as an

public service offices, professional offices of an architect,

similar recognized profession as well ss studios for photography,
painting, music, sculpture, dance, or other recognized fine art;
real estate and insurance offices or specialized retail or
boarding, lodging or tourist homes, delicatessen, florist shop,
customer service establishments of a restictive nature such as

under this zoning, than it should not recommend rezoning. Gerald
Lee was requested to supply a list of all other areas in the City
that have an 00s overlay, and their uses.
3. Chairman Salentine stated that he felt there would be greater
control with the 00s overlay being on the entire parcel rather
Council that they would prefer to retain the full 36 acres under
than on just a portion. Ald. Sanders moved to advise the Common
the proposed 00s overlay. Seconded by Jerald Hulbert, motion
carried.
4. Gerald Lee explained that zoning cannot be conditioned; you
either give them what is allowed or do not grant zoning. The 00s
overlay can be considered conditional zoning in that it gives the
Plan Commission control through the Building, Site & Operation
Plan approval.
5. Ald. D. Sanders explained that the Common Council felt that
the residence was a crucial part of the whole plan. They
would be built in a cetain time frame. Mr. Schaefer indicated
