April election bumps Plan Commission meeting back
Because of the spring election April 6, village officials have moved the monthly Plan Commission meeting to April 13.
Incumbent Michael McDonald will face challenger former Village President Jefferson Davis for Seat 4 on the Village Board. Trustees Jeffrey Steliga, Seat 5, and Steve Raymonds, Seat 6, also are seeking re-election. Those races are uncontested.
Four public hearings planned for the monthly meeting that will be held April 13.
Clearwire Legacy is in the process of building a nationwide fourth generation mobile Internet network, and is looking to place antennas on six existing towers throughout the village. Because of the proximity to residential properties, the commission will hold a public hearing on the request for antenna and cabinet installation on a tower located at Lakefront Communications, W7348 Shady Lane.
The commission will hold two public hearings on requests by Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church to move its operations to a site along County Line Road, west of Maple Road. The first request would reclassify a portion of the site from low-density residential and an area of agricultural lands both to institutional in the village's comprehensive plan. The church's other request asks for a permit to operate a church, school day care, preschool, activity center, pavilion/storage garage and sports field.
The fourth hearing is on a request for an outdoor seating area at Doreen's Bar, W18474 Lisbon Road. Tavern owners are asking for a change to their permit so customers can use the patio area for eating, drinking alcoholic beverages and smoking due to the statewide smoking ban that takes effect this summer.
The meeting is at 6:30 p.m. at Village Hall, N8480 Pilgrim Road.
