and Smith

A quorum was declared present.
Mayor John Landwehr asked if anyone present wished to have their name added to the
existing list of presentations from the gallery and added those who responded. He then
announced that Councilman Kenneth Ferguson, the sponsor of Bill 2008 -18 (food inspection
fees), has indicated he plans to place that bill on the Informal Calendar tonight to allow the
Council more time to discuss the proposed amendments which were distributed immediately
prior to this meeting. He stated that those persons present to speak on that issue are
certainly welcome to go ahead and make their presentation, but that they may wish to come
back again and make another presentation at the time the bill is brought up for final
discussion and vote.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
a) Special Exception Use Permit for Superstore /Big Box Retail Development for 800
Block of West Stadium Blvd.
City Planner Janice McMillan made a staff presentation regarding the background of the
requested special exception use permit. She also gave background information on two other
pending bills, 2008 -10 and 2008 -11, since they all pertain to the same issue. Following her
presentation, the following persons came forward to speak in favor of, or opposition to, the
issue.
In favor:
Duane Schreimann, attorney on behalf of the applicants, and Mike Bates, Central Missouri
Professional Services, 2500 E. McCarty Street, both offered to answer any questions.
Paul Sampson, Central Missouri Professional Services, 2500 E. McCarty Street, gave a
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 2, 2008 2
presentation regarding the site plan and answered questions.
Scott Nuttelman, 4777 Menard Drive, Eau Clair, WI, appeared on behalf of Menard's, and
gave a brief history of the Menard's company, followed by a period of questions and
answers.
Jamie Gilbert, George Butler and Associates, 9801 Renner Blvd., Lenexa, KS, gave a
presentation regarding traffic issues connected to the project. He answered several
questions asked about the two proposed roundabouts. Councilwoman Cindy Layton stated
she wished the record to show her continued concerns with two roundabouts so close
together as she thinks traffic may back at one roundabout and cause congestion into the
other roundabout due to their close proximity to one another.
*Councilwoman Jane A. Smith left to meeting at this point due to a prior commitment
(7:00 P.M.).
Several comments were made, and questions asked, about the possibility of one
roundabout and one stop signal vs. two roundabouts. Mr. Gilbert stated while it may be
feasible at the beginning of the project, if only one roundabout existed, the increase in traffic
over the next several months would probably require that the one single -lane roundabout
be converted to a double -lane roundabout to handle the increase.
Leonard Steinman, 2217 W. Edgewood, made comments regarding the emergency
vehicles exiting out of Hyde Park Road and agreed that a roundabout at that intersection
may pose a problem there.
There being no further testimony brought forward at this time, Mayor John Landwehr
declared the evidentiary portion of the hearing concluded and stated the Council will now
take up the associated pending bill, as well as Bills 2008 -10 and 2008 -11, which are also
related to the issue.
