The Village Administrator explained that the proposed variance is for two lots on Kenwood Avenue, east of First Street. The Village Administrator said that no public objections were received in reference to the amended Permit Fee Schedule and that he recommends approval. Trustee Amaden made comments in reference to the problem of affordable housing. A recent study said that impact fees tend to keep affordable housing out of the community. The Village has a wide range of housing options.
Impact fees are for costs to schools, parks, roads, and police and fire protection.
The Village Administrator explained that all was in order for the satellite fire station site on Hunt Club Road, including the language for the rider in reference to the road, easements, and signalization of the intersection. He added that the fountain is needed to keep the pond ice free all year. He added that Mr. Henderson anticipates completion of the building by February 14, 1992.
