DISCUSSION
Commissioner Montgomery has no outstanding issues and can approve the project.
Commissioner Black can approve the project and is happy to see a vacant lot being utilized.
Commissioner Goyarts has no additional questions.
Commissioner Siekmann can support the project.
Planning Commission Minutes July 6, 2016 Page 6
Commissioner L'Heureux will support the project primarily because it is a duplication of the one next door.
He is extremely concerned that we seem to have "height creep." Had you not had the building next door I
would not have approved the project. He is putting everyone on notice that this is a hot item for him because
we are getting height creep through the city and we have height limits for a reason.
Chairperson Anderson can support the project. It's a nice looking project and we understand that there is
a need for medical and will serve a good need in the community.
