Mayor Damaske declared the Public Hearing open at 7:00 p.m.
Plan Director Muenkel stated that this Public Hearing is for a Conditional Use Grant to allow
petitioner to operate a tree service and landscaping business on the property located on
Schultz Lane just south of Durham Drive. Petitioner submitted for a Building, Site and
Operation Plan for the property to run the business and Plan Commission determined that a
Conditional Use Grant would be required for the use. This determination was made when the
property was zoned RS-2/OHS, Suburban Residence District with a Highway Service Overlay.
The Conditional Use Grant and Building, Site and Operation Plan Resolutions will be heard in
detail during the Plan Commission Meeting as certain aspects of the zoning have changed.
Mayor Damaske asked for members in the audience to address the Commission with their input
of concerns, questions, comments, etc.
Mr. Mike Birkley, W144 S7931 Durham Drive, addressed the Commission stating that he did
not know why this meeting was being held as it is a done deal. The zoning has been removed
and nothing will be granted. Is this a formality to have the meeting?
Director Muenkel answered that petitioner submitted for a Conditional Use Grant which
requires a Public Hearing. This is part of the process and needs to be accomplished. The
Building Site and Operation Plan had been deferred until the Conditional Use Grant came
forward to be discussed at the same time. This Public Hearing is to discuss the allowance for
the operation of the business.
There being no further questions or comments, the Public Hearing was adjourned at 7:05 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Sandra S. Asti
