Dane County Zoning and Natural Resources Committee May 25, 1993 Page 2 Zoning Petition No. 5622 . They also advised you and the Committee that "the current status of Zoning Petition No. 5622 is that the Town of Westport Board has not taken any action based on the merits of such zoning petition due to potential violations of the Wisconsin Open Meeting Law and code of ethics provisions applicable to local government officials contained in chapter 19 of the Wisconsin Statutes. " The attorneys then go on to discuss these alleged problems as they see it in some detail. That is simply not the reason why the Town Board did not take action on the zoning petition by the Fagas. As noted above, the Town Board was asked by the Fagas not to take action. In addition, the Town would certainly like to take the opportunity to review the Fagas ' amendment to the zoning petition. The Town Board is again to consider this matter on June 7, 1993 . Perhaps at that Board meeting, the Town will take specific action as to the rezoning. The Town will then advise you of its action after that meeting. Accordingly, we would ask that the Dane County Zoning and Natural Resources Committee not take action with respect to Zoning Petition No. 5622 at its meeting on May 25, 1993 . The Town has at this point voted to hold this in abeyance so that it can review this matter with legal counsel, and because it was requested to do so by the petitioners. The Town will likely take action on this matter on June 7, 1993, and will advise the County of its decision with respect to the rezoning. Please distribute the attached copies of this letter to the various Dane County Zoning and Natural Resources Committee members prior to or at tonight's meeting. We also ask that this letter become part of the record for review at the May 25, 1993 meeting. TGW26,V
