Minutes of the May 21, 1990, Town Board Meeting were
approved as read.
There is another meeting scheduled for the same date the
Board has set to re -convene the Annual Town Meeting.
Motion by Douglas Lindenfelser to change the date of re-
convening the Annual Town Meeting to Wednesday, June 27, 1990

Larry Koshak reported to the Board that he had obtained
cost estimates from 3 Aerial Photogrametry Companies to do a
contour and topography map of the Eastern part of the
Township. Sections 15, 16, 17, 20, 21 ,22, 23, 26, 27, 28,
29, 32, 33, 35 and 36 of Range 23. The estimates were as
follows:
For a Pencil Manuscript Mylar:
Horizon Martinez Markhurd
$44,040 $69,423 $76,200
For a Digital Mapping & Auto Cadd Files:
Horizon Martinez Markhurd
$58,360 $74,445 $77,460
The Horizon CO. was able to provide a lower estimate
because they had already flown the area. Also it would cost
an additional $9,750.00 to provide ground control for
mapping. Mr. Koshak said his firm's surveying staff could
provide the ground control. There might be some Grant money
available from the DNR for flood plain mapping.
The contour mapping will be necessary to do detailed
planning for future sanitary sewers, storm water drainage and
land use studies. Copies of the map could be sold to
developers and any one else interested in it to help defray
part of the cost.
Mr. Koshak also proposed preparing a Township map by
putting all available data on a Auto Cadd disk. The data
would include section lines, street right-of-ways, plats and
individual property lines. Street names, plat names, lots,
blocks and pin numbers all could be labeled on the map.
Larry Koshak reported to the Board that he had talked to
Dave Montebello concerning increasing the culvert size at
Station 42 of the Co. 42 construction project and doing it at
the County's expense and Mr. Montebello had said that the
County would not pay the difference. However, the County

Attorney has said that if the Township could prove that
development is occuring in that area, the County could
justify paying for the increased culvert cost.
Norman Freske said there is a new driveway in James
Addition that is built around an electric pole. The Board
agreed that the pole should be moved and the driveway
straightened.
Attorney Bill Radzwill advised the Board that a Public
Hearing should be scheduled on the 85th and 87th Street
proposed construction projects.
Motion by Douglas Lindenfelser to hold a Public Hearing
on the proposed construction of 85th St. from Page Ave. to
Co. 42 and 87th St. from Page Ave to River Road on July 2,
1990 at 7:30 PM. Seconded by Norman Freske,all Board Members
voted in favor of the motion.
Concerning an Ordinance to prevent Adult Book Stores
from opening and operating inOtsego, Mr. Radzwill said the
Township is in a vulnerable position if we do not have an
Ordinance to prevent it. He suggested adopting the best
possible Ordinance to prevent this from happening. He will
research Ordinances adopted by other communities to get an
insight on an effective Ordinance for Otsego. Ing Roskaft
suggested putting a moratorium on permitting Adult Book
Stores until we can get an Ordinance in place.
Motion by Norman Freske to table a decision on an
Ordinance to prohibit Adult Book Stores until Mr. Radzwill is
able to research on Ordinance and submit it for adoption.
Seconded by Douglas Lindenfelser, all Board Members voted in
favor of the motion.
Mr. Radzwill said he has not heard from the State
Municipal Commission regarding the Public Hearing on
Incorporation. He has suggested as tentative dates August 8
or 9 and August 15 or 16. The resolution requesting
Incorporation has been determined to be adequate.
