On the Edgewater project for Monday’s meeting. This is getting exhausting!
This just came out about an hour ago . . .
Attached is the updated schedule for the consideration of the Edgewater Hotel related items. The second attachment is the list of approvals needed. The third attachment is our staff report on the project. You can access all of the plans and submittals and comments received on the project through the Legislative file number: 15955 at:

The schedule for next week includes the Plan Commission Public hearing on the project on Monday at 6:00 pm. We anticipate the Commission holding the public hearing on three related items (the PUD, Conditional Use for Waterfront Development and the Ordinance amending the 1965 Wisc Ave Vacation Ord) and then referring the project to the their meeting of February 22. Also on the Agenda will be the public hearing on the Ordinance Amending the waterfront setback for non residential properties. The Plan Commission may take action on this ordinance on Monday. It will be the first public hearing prior to the Edgewater hearing.
Hammes submitted new plans and presentation packets for the Plan Commission yesterday about 4 pm. Those packets will be entered into Legistar this morning. Large plan sets at a 1 to 20 scale were also submitted and will be distributed to reviewing agencies today. Reviewing agencies should review them and if you see anything that changes the recommended conditions of approval from your agency, please get us an amended conditions list by Feb 16 for the Plan Commission meeting of Feb. 22.
How the hell is staff supposed to review the materials submitted, write a report and get it to the commissioners so the commissioners have enough time to digest the information so they can ask appropriate questions? Plan packets are usually ready by . . . well, about now so they can get in the mail hand deliver them.
