, Dane County <br /> 4. e <br /> ParIç Commission • <br /> commis. ,N 4318 Robertson Road, Madison, Wisconsin 53714 • Telephone: 608/246-3896 <br /> JAMES G.MUELLER, Acting Director KENNETH J.LEPINE,Supervisor WAYNE PAULY,Naturalist <br /> 246.3893 246.3894 246.3899 <br /> January 22, 1990 <br /> TO: Agriculture, Environment and Land Records <br /> Committee , <br /> FROM: James G. Muelle A <br /> r; cting Director <br /> SUBJECT: Zoning Petition #4653 <br /> It has been brought my attention that the land being <br /> considered for rezoning under this application is part of the <br /> planned route for the Ice Age Trail. Although the proposed <br /> Ice Age Trail route through this area has not been official <br /> adopted by the State of Wisconsin or Dane County it is my <br /> understanding it has been officially recognized and adopted <br /> by the Town of Verona. It was an oversite on the Town's part <br /> in not taking this fact into consideration during their <br /> review of the rezoning application. <br /> It is my understanding that the Ice Age Park & Trail <br /> Foundation could play a active role in preserving this <br /> property. I have learned that the Foundation is reorganizing <br /> at this time but could possibly discuss acquisition with the <br /> land owner once reorganization is completed. <br /> Because of the lack of good alternatives to the trail <br /> location in this area I request that the Committee consider <br /> deferring action on this rezoning until the Ice Age Park & <br /> Trail Foundation has an opportunity to meet with the land <br /> owner. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> ks <br /> • <br /> cc Richard J.
