had been yurchased at 10. jame' requruenddtion, he should have no objection to
makinE use of it since it could be a vital factor in traffic law enforcement;
also that NC'. James had shown lack of cooperation with the road -I-r-
enforcinS the posted Vad limits. After �i on these specific
phases of his duties, hr. We gave no indication to the council that he would
unke any effort to inprove the situation now existing for the best interests of
the village.
in sumprary, the counc- ✓a, reed that 10. imnes had not indicated that theie would
be chanZe in his negative attitude so Celt that an increase in salary was
not justified at this LKe.
To make every effbrt to irTrove relations between Er. James and the council,

A special meeting was held on September 25, 1961 at the hinnemashta School at
7;30 p.m. with all the Council members present.
The meeting was called as aa public hearing at the request of the attorney for
Anson M to rezone his property from residential to commercial.
The report of a meeting of the Shorewood Planning Commission held on September 21,
1961, indicated that the Planning Commission had heard all persons Nho wished to be
heard on the matter and after deliberation recommended to the Council by a 5 to 1
vote, that the request for commercial zoning of the hate Property be denied.
The large majority of those present at the Council meeting objected to the
0
granting of this license - as one expresaed "It is merely a step#nZ stone for
rezoning at a later date for further expansion." Most of the protests registered,
were from residents of the Timber Lane area and Excelsior.
Since our Attorney questioned the Councilts right legally, of granting this permit
under our existing ordinance, it was moved by Trustee Janvrin and seconded by
Trustee Freyermuth to table the matter for further study until the October meeting,
after our attorney has a chance to study further and give us an offices l opinion.
Passed unanimously.
Since the matter directly involves Excelsior residents as well, it was suggested
that the Welsior Council, be given the opportunity to express their feeling
on the matter.
The 1962 budget was adopted by a unanimous vote of the council for submission to
the county auditor as follows:

Ninnewnshto School at 7:30 p.m. on October 9, 1961 with full attendance of
the council.
Mr. Everett Drake, attorney for Anson !lase, was aEain given the opportunity to
present his case for Anson Mass, requestinE a special use permit to operate
boat docks as a non-conforndng use. Several residents were heard both pro and
son. As per the councilts request the Village attorney had submitted an opinion
as to whether or not the council has the authorit to grant a permit to construct
and operate a marina on this property under o ur present ordinance No. 8. in his
opinion the council does not have that authorit , first cziendin the
ordinance. After each. cotincil meii& expressed his views on the ratter, Trustee
Jai.'nrrin iiioved that the councii grant a variance to Ordinance No. 8; thereby
;ranting Anson hase a permit to operate as a no.ri-con-forminE use, a dock for
storage and docking of boats as per request on file; seconded by Elsa Wiltsey.
Upon vote beinE taken there were three (3) nays and two (2) yeas. hotian failed.

commercial. Trustee Janvrin then -moved that the property be rezoned to commercial

and Wiltsey, and three (3) nays, Mayor DadZer, and Trustees FPoyermJth and Adameit.
hbtion thereby failed.
Our village attorney then explained that the council had no right at this time to
consider or vote on the question of rezoning the Rise property to commercial
since officiaill a hearing on that question had ✓never been held due to Mr. Drakets
witlhdra on the question on Septedber 25, 1961 just before any hearina, in favurcl
of the grantinZ of a sPecial use permit. The previous action taken by the counci
on rezoniny is thereby void.
Kr- Drake then asked the council to reactivate his first request for rezoning to
commercial. Council agreed to hold such hearing according to procedure as directed
by our attorney,. 1 Kelly.
Richard Wakefield submitted the "Horse Committee" reyort for consideration of
