The Chairman, Thomas Farrell, called the meeting to order at 7:03 p.m.
CASE NO. 508 Washington County for developing an
Special User Permit 8500 square foot office expansion to
the present courthouse complex.
Charles Swnason, Director of Public Works, introduced Lyle Doerr
representing Washington County, and architect, Fred Shank.
Mr. Doeer explained plans for the layout of the addition. He states
that the addition will make room for Social Services, presently located
in the old hospital. This would be the largest single division in
the new addition. There will also be room for administration, a new
board room, training rooms, planning, dept., etc.
Details of the building were given by Mr. Shank. The addition will be
3 levels but the roof will not exceed the existing building. The
existing building is 93000 square feet. There will be room to store
many records in the new addition. There is presently one full-time
employee for microfilming, but there are many records. There are
presently 250 employees at the chourthouse and with the addition,
160 will be added, making a total of 410 employees. Traffic signals
at 62nd and 4th St. were discussed and a recently study showed it does
not meet the criteria. As soon as figures are met, Washington Co. will
be responsible to install them.
A neighbor, Don Swenbert, 14990 N. 60th St., was present and expressed
his concern. He states it must also be remembered this is a residential
area and the addition would create more traffic problems. He has a
petition signed by several neighbors stating their- concerns regarding
the addition. Mr. Swenberg-feels the building should be placed some-
where in an already commercially zoned area.
A letter from a resident, Barbara O'Neill, 6215 Panama Ave., was read
by chairman, Tom Farrell. Ms. O'Neill was unable to attend tonight's
meeting. She also stated her concern regarding traffice, noise, lights,
parking problems, etc.
