Henry Korger, 3200 Water Street, voiced his concerns on the Gerrard Corporation property and the importance of the University to our community. Mr. Korger also reminded the Council that they represent the taxpayers of this community and not the City staff.
Reid Rocheleau, 408 Cedar Street, questioned why the University decided not to pursue the purchase of the property that the Gerrard Corporation will now be developing across from the University. He said the University already invested $7,000 into the property. He suggested the Council reconsider this issue.
6. Consideration of minutes and actions taken at the Plan Commission meeting of September 2, 2008.
Ald. Moore moved, Ald. Hanson seconded, to affirm the actions taken at the Plan Commission meeting of September 2, 2008 and place the minutes on file.

The public hearing was declared open by the Mayor.
As no one wished to speak, the Mayor declared the public hearing closed.

9. Public Hearing - Conditional Use - 3101 Whiting Avenue - To Construct a Multi-Family Development.
The public hearing was declared open by the Mayor.
Mayor Halverson said the emergency driveway will be a curbed access at Highway HH.
Rich Sommer, 4224 Janick Circle N., said this is a free enterprise project that will pay approximately $80,000 in taxes.
Reid Rocheleau, 408 Cedar Street, suggested postponing action because the County is still considering this matter. He addressed his concerns on safety of the curbed access for this project. Mr. Rocheleau feels they should have full access to this development. He is opposed to this development.
Tom Wood, Harris and Associates, said this request was postponed in July to allow the applicant to seek a secondary access for emergency situations. He said the Plan Commission approved this based on acquiring a secondary access. Mr. Harris said the full-use access will be on Whiting Avenue. He noted the neighbor was not willing to discuss the possibility of a shared access so that option was abandoned. Mr. Harris said the County was petitioned for construction of a fire lane for emergency access. He stated the petition was presented and approval was granted on August 26, 2008. Mr. Harris noted that the Fire Department has signed off on this curbed driveway. He asked that the Council approve the conditional use permit.
John Olson, WM Development, stated they have tried every avenue to make this project work. He said this is a $5 million development.
As no one further wished to speak, the Mayor declared the public hearing closed.
10. Consideration of Resolution on the above.
Ald. Stroik asked how the Fire Chief feels about driving fire equipment over a curbed entrance.
Interim Fire Chief Zinda said there is no problem going over a curb with fire equipment. He said they can safely drive over a curb with no damage to the vehicles.
Ald. Moore asked if this also applies for ambulances and police cars.
Interim Fire Chief Zinda said this is already being done by ambulances and fire equipment. He said they cannot go over the curb at a high speed but it can be done. The Interim Chief noted this emergency access will be used very rarely.
Ald. Wiza asked who was contacted at the Railroad and how often are the tracks used.
Interim Fire Chief Zinda said Chief Barnes had contacted the Railroad and the tracks are used extremely infrequent.
Ald. Wiza asked what are the thoughts on snow removal.
Interim Fire Chief Zinda said this has been addressed and the emergency access will be kept open 365 days per year.
Ald. Slowinski asked if the geoblock will deteriorate over time. He also would like a better explanation of geoblock.
Director Euclide said geoblocks are solid materials with holes in it and allows vehicles to drive over it.
Mayor Halverson noted this complex will be fully sprinklered.
Ald. Trzebiatowski asked if this rail spur ends at the area of Flint Hills and how often they use it.
Director Gardner replied that is correct. He understands that Flint Hills is the only active customer and they have not used it for two years.
Ald. Brooks asked how long the trains typically are and if they would block the road.
Director Gardner reviewed the outline of the property and estimates it is roughly 1,000 feet away.
Ald. Stroik asked what is the length of a railcar.
Mayor Halverson replied about 30 feet.
Ald. Stroik noted the train would have to be longer than 30 cars before blocking the access.
Ald. Heart moved, Ald. Trzebiatowski seconded, approval of the conditional use for 3101 Whiting Avenue to a construct multi-family development.
Ald. Brooks plans to vote against this request because he feels the development needs to be looked into further.
Ald. Moore feels there is a need for two full access points with this size of development.

Nays: None. Motion carried.
13. Consideration of Ordinance Amendment - Sections 6.08 & 6.09 - Regulation of Outdoor Solid Fuel Burning Furnaces.
Wayne Bushman, 1955 River Road, appreciates the Council looking into his individual situation. He hopes this will set an example to utilize solid wood burning.
Mary Ann Laszewski, 1209 Wisconsin Street, said it would be appropriate to consider this request since the City became an eco-municipality. She said these energy sources are a great cost savings for businesses. Ms. Laszewski encouraged support for this request.
Ald. Wiza moved, Ald. Slowinski seconded, approval of Sections 6.08 and 6.09 regarding the regulation of outdoor solid fuel burning furnaces.
Ald. Heart asked if a permit is required to install one of these units to keep track of where they are being placed.
Director Gardner said they fall within a gray area but because there is some electrical work associated with these units, a permit would be required for that.
Ald. Heart feels there will be more of these units in the future.
Ald. Myers asked how insurance companies handle these units.
Director Gardner is unsure how they look at them.
Ald. Heart feels this is a decent ordinance.
Roll Call: Ayes: Ald. Myers, Walther, Hanson, Wiza, Heart, Slowinski, Trzebiatowski, Molski, Stroik, Brooks, Moore.
Nays: None. Motion carried.

15. Consideration of minutes and actions taken at the Board of Public Works meeting of September 8, 2008.
Corey Marschke, 4024 Kennedy Drive, suggested taking more time on the new section that is proposed on item #12. He said the way the fees are administered needs to be further reviewed. Mr. Marschke said it is important the airport continue to grow.
Reid Rocheleau, 408 Cedar Street, voiced his concerns on the truck route. He suggested the trucks use Highway HH across to Business 51 to the city's current truck route.
Mayor Halverson stated the information that Corey Marschke provided was not in the packets because he wanted a chance to speak with Director Euclide. He said the information was mailed out separately.
Director Euclide said the minimum standards as proposed meet the requirements of the FAA and Bureau of Aeronautics. He said these are changes that were needed for a long time. The Director would like these approved tonight and the Airport Committee can study them and make further changes if needed.
Ald. Stroik asked if it is pressing that these be approved tonight.
Director Euclide said it would be nice to clean these up.
Mayor Halverson said it is not that pressing.
Ald. Heart moved, Ald. Brooks seconded, to approve and affirm the actions of the Board of Public Works and place the minutes on file with the exception of agenda item #12 pulled for further consideration.
Roll Call: Ayes: Ald. Myers, Walther, Hanson, Wiza, Heart, Slowinski, Trzebiatowski, Molski, Stroik, Brooks, Moore.
Nays: None. Motion carried.
Ald. Wiza asked if future funding would be in jeopardy if we do not comply with FAA regulations.
City Attorney Molepske said they are still subject to FAA rules. He said the City is not granting exclusive right to the current people at the airport. The City Attorney said the fees are minimal.
Ald. Wiza said this issue needs additional research.
Ald. Wiza moved, Ald. Walther seconded, that this particular item be reviewed by the Airport Committee should it be successfully created and report back to the Council with the recommendations within 60 days. If the Airport Committee fails this evening, this issue will be brought back before the Council for consideration next month.

Ald. Trzebiatowski moved, Ald. Molski seconded, to approve Section 7.06(2) and 7.06(3)(a).
Ald. Trzebiatowski would like clarification on the number and types of carts a property owner can have.
Director Euclide said each customer receives one garbage cart and one recycling cart. He said they can get an extra garbage cart and/or recycling cart for a one-time charge of $50 for each cart. The Director said if the customer already has four carts total and they want additional carts then they pay $50 per cart plus $50 per year.
Ald. Stroik asked if a property owner could have three garbage carts and one recycling cart.
Director Euclide said the way he interprets the ordinance, they can have three of one type of cart and one of the other.
Mayor Halverson said they can have any mixture of carts.
Roll Call: Ayes: Ald. Myers, Walther, Hanson, Wiza, Heart, Slowinski, Trzebiatowski, Molski, Stroik, Brooks, Moore.
Nays: None. Motion carried.
20. Consideration of minutes and actions taken at the Personnel Committee meeting of September 8, 2008.
Reid Rocheleau, 408 Cedar Street, encouraged the Council to postpone the matter on the pay increase because the Personnel Director is not present to answer any questions. He stated the employee is hard working, dedicated, honest and efficient. Mr. Rocheleau requested additional information regarding this issue and never received it. He stated the employee never asked to be Deputy and would not be required to live in the city.
Ald. Hanson moved, Ald. Myers seconded, to approve the minutes and actions taken at the Personnel Committee meeting of September 8, 2008.
Ald. Wiza noted he did receive the information he had requested.

Roll Call: Ayes all.
Nays none. Motion carried.
22. Consideration of minutes and actions taken at the Board of Parks Commissioners meeting of September 3, 2008.
John Pearson, 400 W. Mapleridge Drive, supports the permanent concrete structure at the skateboard park.
Erica Wardle, UW-SP, was no longer present at the meeting.
Liz McDonald, 1760 Strongs Avenue, continues to support the skateboard park and is available for any questions.
Jason Wendt, 1703 Division Street, supports the concept of the concrete structure for the skateboarders. He said we need to look at the future of our youth.
Trevor Roark, 209 Second Street N., said the concrete skate park is more cost effective because it will last longer. He said parking at this site is not an issue because most children are dropped off or skateboard to the park.
Scott Winn, 907 Minnesota Avenue, feels this is the best location for the skateboard park. He believes we should value and support our youth.
Reid Rocheleau, 408 Cedar Street, supports the skateboard park.
Ald. Wiza stated the site is not being addressed this evening. He said the only thing being considered is if it will be a wood structure or concrete structure.
Mayor Halverson said the idea of a permanent concrete skateboard is wonderful. He said the only issue before the Council is whether you want the skateboard park to be temporary or permanent.
Ald. Wiza said just because it is made out of concrete does not make it permanent.
Director Schrader said the Park Board supported changing the portable skateboard structure to a total concrete structure. He said it is a better park and will last longer with less maintenance.
Ald. Moore said this is frustrating because a lot of things have already been put into motion.
Ald. Trzebiatowski agrees with the concept of a concrete structure. He noted that BMX bikes are not good for concrete structures. The alderman is still opposed to developing a skateboard park at Goerke Park.
Mayor Halverson said the recommendation on the location will still need to come before the Council at a future time.
Ald. Trzebiatowski likes the current open concept at Goerke Park. He is concerned that a fence will need to be placed around the skateboard park for liability reasons.
Ald. Wiza asked if the Skateboard Park Committee would have to formulate a site plan to be presented to the Parks Commission and Council before the location is approved.
City Attorney Molepske replied that is correct.
Ald. Wiza moved, Ald. Brooks seconded, approval of the actions and minutes of the Board of Parks Commissioners meeting of September 3, 2008.
Ald. Heart asked if the Parks Director had input into the location of the skateboard park.
Director Schrader said there were originally 14 locations that were looked at to see if they met the criteria.
Ald. Heart supports the skateboard park.
Ald. Slowinski asked if there are any comparables on the footprint as far as one versus the other.
Director Schrader said it would be exactly the same.
Ald. Brooks reiterated that a final site design is needed before this becomes final. He suggested approving the concrete structure to allow them to start on a site plan.
Ald. Moore supports the park and skateboarders but a deal was already made so it is inappropriate to change it now.
Ald. Myers asked if they will be able to handle the additional costs with a concrete park.
Director Schrader stated the cost will be the same.
Ald. Walther opposes the Goerke Park site; however, at this point we are only looking at the concept of a concrete structure.
Ald. Slowinski asked if the site plan will be specific to this location.
Mayor Halverson believes a site plan can be created to be transplanted as long as there is enough room.
Director Schrader said the site plan will be created to fit Goerke Park and if that is not the site then it could be moved to someplace else. He said they will need to let the designer know that this may not be the site.
Ald. Stroik asked if the location could also be voted on this evening.
Mayor Halverson said the site was not published or on the agenda.
Ald. Stroik does not want to give them the understanding that the City is committed to putting the skateboard park at Goerke Park.
City Attorney Molepske said the location will still need to come before the Council at a future time.
Roll Call: Ayes all.
Nays none. Motion carried.
23. Consideration of minutes and actions taken at the Board of Water & Sewage Commissioners meeting of September 8, 2008.
Ald. Slowinski moved, Ald. Heart seconded, approval of the minutes and actions taken at the Board of Water & Sewage Commissioners meeting of September 8, 2008.
Ald. Slowinski commended Director Halverson and staff for another impressive report from the Wastewater Engineer.
Roll Call: Ayes all.
Nays none. Motion carried.
24. Consideration of minutes and actions taken at the Police and Fire Commission meetings of September 3, and September 9, 2008.
Ald. Stroik moved, Ald. Wiza seconded, approval of the minutes [September 3 and September 9, 2008].
Ald. Stroik gave the Police and Fire Commission credit for developing concepts that will hopefully help the City with budget savings.
Roll Call: Ayes all.
Nays none. Motion carried.
25. Consideration of the statutory monthly financial report of the Comptroller-Treasurer for July 2008.
Ald. Molski moved, Ald. Myers seconded, to accept the statutory monthly financial report of the Comptroller-Treasurer for July 2008 and place it on file.
Roll Call: Ayes all.
Nays none. Motion carried.
26. Consideration of Ordinance Amendment - Creation of Airport Advisory Committee.
Terry Wick, 3949 Jordan Lane, was a member on a previous Airport Committee. He reviewed how the meetings were conducted. Mr. Wick stated the Airport Committee reported to the Board of Public Works. He said there is a need for this committee with the recent problems at the airport. Mr. Wick suggested appointing three aldermen, the Airport Manager and the President of the Pilot's Association to the Airport Committee.
Reid Rocheleau, 408 Cedar Street, believes there needs to be a method of making changes at the airport. He said there must be problems at the airport since another Airport Manager is leaving.
Mayor Halverson feels the creation of an Airport Committee is something that is a lot more precise.
Ald. Wiza moved, Ald. Slowinski seconded, approval of the creation of the Airport Advisory Committee.
Ald. Brooks asked if a committee always consists of five members.
Mayor Halverson said there is always an odd number. He said if a committee consists of more than five members it becomes too large. The Mayor has no problem with three aldermen on the committee if that is what the Council would like.
Ald. Myers asked who the committee will report to.
Mayor Halverson replied to the Board of Public Works.
City Attorney Molepske said the Board of Public Works still has to delegate what they want this committee to do.
Roll Call: Ayes: Ald. Moore, Brooks, Stroik, Molski, Trzebiatowski, Slowinski, Heart, Wiza, Hanson, Walther, Myers.
Nays: None. Motion carried.
27. Mayoral appointments:
Airport Advisory Committee - Jerry Moore (expires
4-30-10), Anthony Patton (expires 4-30-10), Dave Ladick (expires 4-30-10), and David Olson (expires 4-30-10).
Jeremy Beaudry, 2700 Fifth Avenue, expressed his concerns on the composition of the currently proposed Airport
Committee members. He does not believe the members represent a balanced cross section of airport stakeholders or
the citizens as a whole. Mr. Beaudry stated the appointments do not reflect the make-up of the committee that was
described last week. He said all the committee members with the exception of Ald. Moore are private aircraft owners
or members of the Pilot's Association. Mr. Beaudry is interested as serving as a member of this committee.
Terry Wick, 3949 Jordan Lane, declined his opportunity to speak.
Ald. Wiza did not see the credentials for the individuals being appointed to this committee. He questioned why
the fifth appointment also needs to be part of the Pilot's Association.
Mayor Halverson said he did not look to see if his appointments were members of SPPA. The Mayor does not know the
expectations of those at the airport or the alderpersons.
Ald. Wiza moved, Ald. Brooks seconded, approval of the four mayoral appointments to the Airport Committee of Jerry
Moore, Anthony Patton, Dave Ladick, David Olson and the fifth making the recommendation advising the Mayor to take
a look at Jeremy Beaudry but not requiring that person be from the Stevens Point Pilot's Association.
Ald. Brooks would like the motion clarified.
Mayor Halverson feels the motion contradicts with the ordinance that was just approved.
City Attorney Molepske stated it does not specifically state that in the ordinance. He said the individual who
is selected by the SPPA would have to come before the Council for formal approval. The Attorney said if the Mayor
agrees with who the SPPA selects, he would present it to the Council. He said if the Council does not want another
member of the SPPA, the Council can advise the Mayor.
Ald. Wiza stated that is what the motion is to advise the Mayor that they do not want another member of the SPPA.
Ald. Slowinski said at this time, the final appointment will not be a specific person.
Mayor Halverson said the final appointment will come before the Council for approval.
Ald. Trzebiatowski agrees that the fifth person should not be a member of the SPPA.
Roll Call: Ayes all.
Nays none. Motion carried.
