Mr. Dave Anderson, Ehlers & Associates, went over the figures that are listed in the project plan. Mr. Anderson
assured the Commission that all projects would have to be approved by Common Council prior to distribution of any
monies.
Mr. Henry Elling, MSA Professional Services, representing Parkland Ventures, agrees with Mr. Anderson that this
plan should move forward. There would be a developer’s agreement with each project that is proposed. The
development projects will be in accordance with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan recommendations and Downtown
Design Guide requirements.
Acting Mayor Slocomb asked for members in the audience to address the Commission with their input of concerns,
questions, comments, etc.
Mr. Rene Farias, W167 S7294 Briargate, happy to see that something will be done with the mall. This project is
something that the neighbors have been waiting to happen for a long time. However, Mr. Farias is wondering what
will happen to the existing ponds. The ponds are becoming a hazard to the property owners and there is a concern
as to type of impact the new development will have on the existing ponds.
Mr. Bob Bueckers, W186 S6790 Jewel Crest Drive, concerned with stormwater impact on Little Muskego Lake when
redeveloping the site.
Acting Mayor Slocomb stated this matter would be heard through a resolution under New Business later this
evening. There being no further questions or comments, the Public Hearing was adjourned at 7:40 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Sandra S. Asti
