MINUTES OF THE ELK RNER PLANNING COMMISSION July 25, 1966 - Members Present Dan Bailey Dick Gangoll Hilmer Bartelt Les Derr John McGibbon Paul Siegler a11d also present were . J im I(night and Ron Kalesew ski The first part of the meeting was devoted to a paragraph by paragraph inspec- tion of the planning study including discussion of the desirability of the central business district study and how detailed this should be. It was brought out that under the cost sharing arrangeme11t there would not be a very great saving to the Village in dropping this plan as proposed and that many of our problems center around what to do with the business district. It was also brought out that there could be credits for services performed if the skills and facilities were available. However, it was generally concluded that these facilities and skills were not available in the Village at the present time. The general idea for the zoning section is to use what is workable based on the new Land Use plan and to redo the balance of the ordinance. The plan provides for two public meetings and for presentation ot me plan as concluded and monthly planning meetings with the Planning Commission during the term of the contract. It was also brought out that if desired a brochure in sufficient quantity for handout could be substituted for a printed full report at the conclusion of the plan. This full report would then be in di tto only. Otherwise the usual procedure is to provide 50 fully printed reports. After this previous dis- cussion it was decided to recommend to the Village Council to accept the plan as presented with a total cost of $14,490 of which the Village share would be $4,830. Neil Larson appeared to request a zoning change on land at Morton and Angel Streets to a Multiple Dwelling District. The Commission again asked for detail infonnation on plans, elevations, etc., and tabled the request until further information was forthcoming. A proposal was also recei ved from Neil Larson for rezoning to commercial and Multiple Dwelling combination in an area northwest of Highway #169 and Main Street. This proposal was taken under advisement for further checking before recommendatio11 to the Council.
