Alderman Salentine seconded. Petitioner proposing alternate site located south of
Highway 36. This alternate site meets the criteria established by the Plan Commission.
This is a reapplication of #P.C. 113-99 and exempt from wireless facilities moratorium.

seconded. Due to underground storage tanks being removed, petitioner relocated the
salable and rental vehicles. Petitioner is requesting that present location of vehicles be
made permanent. After site inspection, several minor violations were found. Required
corrections have been included in Resolution #P.C. 60-2000. Consensus of the Plan
Commission determined that relocating vehicles is a substantial change to existing
Conditional Use requiring a Public Hearing. Mr. Dale Erdmann addressed the Commission
regarding the violations; the banners have been displayed since 1976 and the sign has
been displayed since October 23, 1993. Mayor noted that they are allowed signs, but must
be relocated for safety reasons. Mr. Erdmann feels that since the vehicles have been
relocated that the normal traffic flow has slowed down. Mr. Erdmann also stated that it
would be quite costly to pave the area where the salable vehicles are being displayed. It is
the recommendation of the Commission, that Mr. Erdmann has the option to apply for a
Public Hearing to request to have the vehicles remain at the present locations or to come
into compliance prior to April 4, 2000. However, consensus of Plan Commission is that any
such proposal will require complete parking lot paving, drainage, and landscape plans.

RESOLUTION #P.C. 65-2000 – Approval of a three lot Certified Survey Map for Wayne

#P.C. 065-2000 and #P.C. 066-2000 and #P.C. 067-2000) into nine parcels and one outlot.
The outlot is in alignment with the existing park on the south side of Kelsey Drive. The
outlot proposed to be used for open space and stormwater management. The proposed
parcels meet the requirements of the proposed RCE zoning district. A grading plan needs

accordance with approved plans, bike paths are required along north side of Kelsey.

Certified Survey Map shall state that no future division of these properties shall occur. Mr.
Wayne Salentine approached the Commission stating that he agrees to the location of the
bikepath, but does not believe he should bear the construction responsibility. Mr. Salentine
feels that his contribution of lands for Park should free him from park fees and other
improvements. A Subdivider’s Agreement shall be executed concurrent with final Certified
Survey Map approvals in order to address public utility and bike path installation
requirements. Discussion ensued that the Finance Committee would make the decision
regarding developer responsibilities. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 65-2000 was
