John Henderson, Mooney,LeSage, appeared before the Committee to
discuss the annual listing contract for the Industrial Park.
There are 27 acres left to sell; 6 acres have been sold this
year, to date, and options are being held or waiting to close
on an additional 5 acres. The Committee discussed raising
price of lots after the first of the year. The Committee will
discuss at the December 2, 1992, Finance Committee meeting.
Ald. Dumke moved to recommend approval of contract. Seconded
by Ald. Sanders, motion carried.
The Committee reviewed Police Department Shooting Range
Agreement with Waste Management. Ald. Patterson moved to
recommend approval for a one year extension for 1993. Seconded
by Ald. Dumke, motion carried.
The Committee discussed proposed settlement with John Ingersoll
as a result of the contractor for the Muskego Volunteer Fire
Station #l expansion inadvertently erecting a light pole on Mr.
Ingersoll's property and addressing the grade differential
abutting the property. Mr. Ingersoll has submitted an appeal
to the Board of Appeals for a garage placement variance and, if granted, would negate the need for a retaining wall at the
north end of the property in the area where the grade is extreme. The balance of the lot line to the south can be
accomplished by sloping the grade from the parking lot to meet the existing grade on the Ingersoll property abutting the
driveway. The agreement requires the City of Muskego being
responsible for the cost difference between a concrete wall
construction and wood wall construction for the garage. The settlement is contingent upon all appeals being granted and the
City of Muskego waiving the fee for Mr. Ingersoll's appeal.
The Committee is receptive to waiving the fee and approve the
concept subject to reviewing the dollar cost involved.
Ald. Dumke moved to approve Release of Funds for Country Brook Estates Addition #1 (Phase II) in the amount of $35,708.
Seconded by Ald. Sanders, motion carried.

The Committee reviewed correspondence from Plan Director Larry
Kirch advising that the developer for Lake Forest Addition #l
is requesting that the Letter of Credit amount remain at
$43,605.38 for the final lift of asphalt. The City had
originally requested that the Developer add $6,000.00 to his
Developer's Deposit rather than obtain a new Letter of Credit
for the final lift of asphalt. The developer has submitted a
quote for asphalting in 1993 of $39,219.75 making it
unnecessary to require an additional $6,000.00; as the Letter
of Credit could remain at $43,605.38. The Committee determined
that the Letter of Credit will remain as is and additional funds are not required.
Ald. Sanders moved to approve the following Release of Funds
for engineering bills:
Settler's Creek $2,624.45 Meadow Green West #3 2,323.30 Foxboro 6,413.50 Lake Forest Original 720.00 Lake Forest Addn. #l 840.00 Lake Forest Addn. #2 724.00
Seconded by Ald. Dumke, motion carried.
The Committee reviewed request to let the Letter of Credit for Woodside Estates expire and require that an amount for the
final lift of asphalt be placed in the Developer's Deposit.
The Committee agreed with the above recommendation.
The meeting adjourned at 9:30 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
