Village of Fox Point

The Building Board reviewed and approved several residential projects, including an in-ground pool, a sunroom replacement, a storage shed, and a gazebo. The approvals for these projects were contingent upon specific conditions, such as accessory structure height confirmation and the use of cedar siding instead of masonry.

The Village Board meeting covered several items including committee reports from the Plan Commission and Centennial Committee, and conducted public hearings on institutional district and conditional use permit requests. Key business items included the adoption of resolutions related to sanitary sewer activities and commendations, the approval of various license renewals, and the consideration of storm water improvement proposals. The board also reviewed updates on the municipal pool, discussed revisions to the Food, Lodging and Recreational Safety and Licensing Code, and approved the issuance of promissory notes and collective bargaining agreements.

The Plan Commission agenda included the consideration of a conditional use permit application for a new restaurant, Donut Zone. Additionally, the commission reviewed a request from St. Eugene Congregation to install a backup generator within an F Institutional District and discussed a proposal to authorize pickleball play as a public outdoor recreational facility on existing tennis courts at Indian Creek and Longacre Parks.

The Plan Commission considered and recommended that the Village Board approve a Conditional Use Permit application for Las Cazuelas. The recommendation included specific conditions regarding live music hours, restrictions on outdoor music amplifiers, requirements for additional screening of outdoor seating, adherence to staff recommendations, and submission of a site plan for engineering and Board approval.

The Village Board meeting included a ceremonial oath for members and committee reports from the Plan Commission and Centennial Committee. A public hearing was held regarding a Conditional Use Permit for a restaurant, which was subsequently considered by the Board. The agenda covered appointments to various boards, committees, and commissions, as well as commendation for a former Village Trustee. Updates were provided on the municipal pool fundraising, and several referrals and proposals were discussed, including recreational use of tennis courts for pickleball, the installation of a backup generator, and engineering proposals for addressing local infrastructure issues. The Board also addressed administrative and financial matters, including budget revisions, contract approvals for fence replacements, ash borer treatment, and police equipment, as well as a collective bargaining agreement with the police association.
