OLD BUSINESS - Bike Trail Head - Paal Hansen would like to
suggest to the town that they put up a sign that would have space
for some sponsors, events can be posted on there or some type
of bulletin board for community ride, show a website and a facebook
page where you can have some maps of different bike routes.
Provide a message board on the internet for those who would like
to find someone else to ride with. Also provide a water bottle
hydrant or a self draining hydrant which can also be used to
provide water to the community gardens and use for the ice rinks.
Recommendation to town board would be to get that ready for
this season. Paal will get some figures put together on how
much this will cost and present at the next town board meeting.
- There was a concern that a citizen had regarding the action
that was decided on the Olson project. The concern was the Planning
Commission did not reference the towns comprehensive plan in
their deliberations and that the plan specifies that newly created
lots shall be 1.5 acres or greater. Bob MacIntosh has verified
the understanding of the plan and believes that the actions were
indeed consistent with the plan.
NEW BUSINESS - Updated Oconto County Applications and Recommendation
Forms, the county has new forms that are fill in and printable
online. These forms can be located on Oconto County website,
however, would like the forms posted on the Town of Riverview
website where people can make use of them. Need clarification
from Town Board on the language with the Conditional Use Permit
Application under Town Recommendation form states is not required
for floodplain, conservancy, and certain shoreland matters.
-County is looking for some input on the projects that the Planning
Commission has for the next two years. The projects will be
to get volleyball courts in for the Fire Dept. Corn Roast, bike/ATV
trail head, purchase playground equipment for crooked lake area
and at the Riverview Town Hall, decorating the trees for the
drive thru Christmas wonderland, and Old 32 Rustic Road. Goal
is to have Rustic Road application submitted by July 2011. To
help with funding in all these projects would ask for support
from neighboring towns, bike/ATV clubs, lake associations, and
hold fundraisers.
