Subject:  This public hearing was not required.  It was desirable, however, to solicit public comments on the proposed Lake Pointe project and its impact on the environment.  An environmental report was placed in the Village Hall for public inspection as per the required advertisement on June 14, 2005.  The results were that there was no impact from the project.
