Answers/response for Dillon Wuellner

 Dillon Wuellner, I will happily respect your insistence on keeping the content of your post between you and I, but I do want to respond to what you said.  I will reply in full tomorrow.

So here goes Dillon.  I see the face of the new Budweiser sign on the front of your mom's new venture, the Rustic Bar, has now been removed, leaving only the lights and mechanics of it.  I would imagine, this is due to the letter of inquiry to Dmw Properties LLC, August 5, 2014, from Ben Oleson (the zoning administrator) to determine if this property is out of compliance with the sign ordinance or not. According to my records the Budweiser sign was erected in violation of the sign ordinance limits on that property. In addition to that sign overage there was a banner erected awhile back that was also not permitted.  I recorded the meetings where signs at this facility were discussed with your mom Dina Wuellner and/or Tim Witucki present.  They were both told by the Historic Preservation Committee,  that in order to have large signs on the front side of the bar, they would have to be behind windows.(a loophole  HPC created to benefit strictly commercial speech) On June 2nd, 2014 the second meeting that Tim attended, there was discussion that the signs on the backside alone were 48 square feet(the TOTAL allowable  square footage for signage on the entire property).  The property has 24' of front footage and in the B-2 District the sign code allows BY PERMIT two square feet of signage per front foot of property.  The Budweiser lighted sign in the front is 9'x4' (36 square feet).  They were well aware that their signage was not in compliance.  Evidently they thought THEY didn't have to follow city laws.

 I wonder if your comments(that are very unfriendly and suggest I leave town) have anything to do with this issue? Just how do you propose I be removed from Morrison County and not let back in Dillon?  You speak like this is another country.  Do you believe in our laws and our Constitution that protects everyone, or just some?  It is not the laws that I have a problem with, it is the SELECTIVE ENFORCEMENT OF THOSE LAWS THAT I VEHEMENTLY OBJECT TO!!

  This property, and all of it's past bar owners/tenants have never been compliant with the sign ordinance as far as I can tell.  I fact check everything.  I do my research and yes I show up at the meetings so I can get the clear picture as to how decisions are made. 

One of my blog posts tomorrow will speak directly to the other businesses that were sent recent warning or inquiry letter(by name).  Stay tuned.  Getting hot roun hea'.
