New Berlin Plan Commission Special Meeting

The Plan Commission has a regularly scheduled meeting on July 12th (delayed one week due to the July 4th holiday weekend), but they apparently are holding a special meeting tomorrow (June 29th at 6 PM).

The only business items on the agenda are:

1. PG-10 Plan Commission Bylaws – Possible Update and Action.

2. PG-830(15) CITY CENTER - A special Plan Commission meeting to deal with the topics of the historical perspective of the City Center.

I am encouraging everyone-advocates and opponents both-to attend this meeting.  I'd appreciate a report from this meeting as I'm unable to attend.  You can find the minutes from the last meeting here.

I'm told the meeting will likely cover:

  • Primary topic to be discussed is the historical perspective of the City Center, what was adopted in 1999 plan, what was adopted as part of the original PUD, and track the last ten years as to what has taken place, discuss the pros and cons, past proposals, issues, infrastructure, conservation efforts – basically, ‘roadblocks’ that have risen in the past
  • To include a PowerPoint presentation (approx. 1 hour) illustrating historical background
  • Not positive as to whether a specific public speaking session will be scheduled; depending on time, Q&A to potentially take place following presentation
  • Follow-up meetings will most likely follow to allow for citizen discussion
  • Potential for focus groups (current idea on the plan commissions radar)
  • MSP development will be addressed
  • Evaluation of future developments
