Motion Van Dinter, second Zeman, to recommend approval of the Lot 264 CSM to the Village Board subject to all staff comments. Motion carried. Discussion/Action on O’Malley Parkland Proposed Use Mr. Even stated that they are looking for direction as to whether active parkland would fit in with the previous passive park vision for this corridor as part of the Heritage Foundation purchase. If so, 10 acres could be set aside. There would be some financial considerations that would need to be worked out as well. Motion McGowan, second Bruskewitz, to recommend exploring a possible purchase of 10 acres for active parkland. Motion carried, 4-0-1 with Sipsma abstaining. County Highway Q Construction Project/Public Comment Prior to the JPC meeting, there was an open house from 5-6 p.m. to discuss the project. 48+ people attended asking questions and voicing concerns about not being included in the planning process. Kent Straus of Strand Associates presented the proposed improvements. Mr. Even stated that the Village staff has been working with a group from the First Presbyterian Church on possible alternatives for access to the property for some time now. Mr. Even passed out a letter from the church stating that they prefer the right-in/right-out option, instead of a temporary access road until further development occurs to the west. They ultimately support a roundabout at Water Wheel Drive, but understand that this is not an option at this time. Mr. Sipsma stated that the previous approval was for 2 signals on CTH Q. No action is necessary unless there is a motion to change the previously approved plan. No such motion was made. Comprehensive Plan Update Mr. Even gave an update on the survey and open house planned for April 20, 2016.
