It is proposed that EPURA hold a series of workshops followed by public hearings for the purpose of public input regarding proposed Plan revisions. Administrator Klaphake noted the Planning Department is in the process of compiling data for a new Comprehensive Plan which tentatively will include sections now addressed in the EPURA Master Plan. It is anticipated a revised Comprehensive Plan will be considered by the Town in 1993. Consensus is for EPURA to proceed with developing the procedures necessary for this project. In the meantime, the Town will consider a Resolution to begin the Plan amendment process. STREET LIGHT POLICY Director Anderson noted that Assistant Administrator Widmer indicated that a decorative street light policy within the Town should be considered. Discussion followed regarding possible future lighted areas such as MacGregor Avenue to the Hwy. 34 Bypass, new riverwalk projects, Moraine Avenue to the South, Post Office area to Picadilly Square, the outlet store pedestrian way, and, East to the Chamber of Commerce. Discussion included the statement that a policy should be flexible, because as pedestrian use is modified, the need for lighting may increase. Consensus is that EPURA take all discussion under advisement and return with a proposed street light policy for the Town's consideration within the next two months. Upon Director Anderson's request, all present unanimously voted to adjourn to Executive Session to discuss strategy regarding potential litigation. EXECUTIVE SESSION Stanley Hotel Access Director Anderson presented information concerning potential litigation. Strategy for negotiation of the conflict was suggested by the Boards.
