COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE MAYOR’S OFFICE
The Mayor stated that the appointments to the Conservation Plan Committee have not been
finalized. He appointed Ald. Le Doux to act as the Council Liaison to the Community Festival
Committee in place of Ald. Chiaverotti because she has a conflict which will prevent her from
serving on the Committee. The Mayor stated that the Residential Convenience Center at
Superior Emerald Park is now open to accept residential waste, recyclables, and yard waste
from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Fridays and 8:00 to noon on Saturdays. Proof of residency is
required. The Council members were invited to view the new Muskego Volunteer Fire Co.
rescue boat and equipment at 5:30 p.m. on July 5 at Station No. 1.
Ord. #1031 - An Ordinance to Amend the Zoning Map of the City of Muskego RS-3/OPD to B-3
(State Financial Bank). Second Reading. Salentine moved for adoption. Wichgers seconded.
Salentine stated she would like the lot to remain residential and asked for support to deny the
petition. This is not a good fit for the area. The existing lot already zoned for business can be
used. Williams’ Supper Club and State Financial Bank will lose an ingress/egress with the
upgrade of Janesville Road moving additional traffic to Kristen Drive. Chiaverotti stated that
traffic will be an issue either way. Slocomb stated that the lot is in close proximity to the
existing residential lots. Mr. Turk stated that the residential lot could be used for detention or
retention purposes if the proposed office building were placed on the business lot. He also
noted that he has discussed various options with the petitioner. Wichgers expressed support
for Salentine’s position. Patterson noted there could be problems in the future if the property
were rezoned. Mr. Turk agreed stating that the Plan Commission reviews the immediate
proposal. With a zoning change, the future impact could be broader. Chiaverotti clarified that
the proposal for an office building could go forward without the zoning change. City Attorney
Molter stated that the petitions submitted at the 6/13/2000 public hearing did not meet all
technical requirements. The petitions were not corrected and resubmitted; therefore, a simple
majority vote of the Council is all that is required. Motion to adopt defeated 7-0 for reasons
previously stated.
