In order to facilitate the awarding of bids and the pass-
ing of the ordinance necessary to finalize the p1ins `or the
sewer and water projects, Mr. Webb requested that the Council

The Village Manager then advised that the Community Nation-
al lank is planning to put in a small trust department in con-
junction with their hank operation. They are considering a
small addition of moot 110C snuaro feet, however, this would
involve additional parking. As the Zoning Ordinance requires
the parking to be contiguous and there is no adiacent land to
the hank parcel, they have asked that the Council consider
allowing them to provide a separate parking lot, Mr. Anderson
sunnested that perhaps a variance could he worked out in this
case and suggested no action until the final plans have '•peen
su'mitted to the Village Manager.
