MINUTES OF AUGUST 10, 1994
Meeting was called to order by first vice-chairman Donnelley Erdman with
Linda Smisek, Les Holst, Martha Madsen, Tom Williams, Jake Vickery and Roger
Moyer present. Karen Day and Joe Krabacher were excused.
COMMITTEE AND STAFF COMMENTS
Roger: Planet Hollywood has yet to paint the trim on the roof and why is that
after all this time. What can we do if they do not honor their commitments.
Amy: I will contact them but it was a condition of approval.
Amy: Scott Samborski has resigned and Karen has been absent for four months
and I am concerned about their replacements due to the fact if the special
review comes about the HPC should not be short of members.
Donnelley: We should advertise for two openings and Karen can always get back
on after things slow down.
Amy: 939 E. Cooper has been pulled off the agenda due to some personal
conflicts with the owner of the property. The Langley's are trying to rectify
that.
Jake stepped down.
420 E. MAIN STREET - GALENA PLAZA EXTENSION OF CONCEPTUAL
Kim Weil, architect: I represent the owners Lowell Meyers, Andy Hecht, Ron
Garfield and this is the central bank corner. It has been a year ago that we
have been here and in that time they have been concenetrating on the apartment
building in the back and have upgraded it significantly and brought things up
to code. Their time is running out and they are requesting a six month
extension and during this time we will apply for a final development plan.
They are motivated to begin builidng in the spring and we need the six month
extension to finish the design work and do the documentation.
MOTION:
Roger made the motion that HPC grant a six month extension of
conceptual approval for 420 E. Main Street; second by Les. All in favor,
motion carries.
Jake seated.
TEMPORARY OVERLAY
Amy: We went to council with the ideas of the application procedure and
instead we spent 2 1/2 hours convincing them. We have had a brown bag lunch
and there are five different view points about what a monster home is and what
we should do about it. We all need to go in the same direction. John Bennett
would like to have a three day charet to discuss issues. Leslie and I do not
feel that is enough time to figure out what is needed when we have been
working seven months. We want to get the special review up and going as there
are people waiting. I have been working on an application packet and the
cases that I am most concerned about are HPC cases where we have a project
that we are already reviewing and they are exceeding the 80%. I do not want
to see them excused of review as we have always said additions etc. are
getting too big. At the same time I do nto want to make it a complicated
process. The only idea that I have come up with is that the special review
