William McLaughlin, who is now deceased, was the original owner of the property located east of Kenosha County Bike Trail, north of 128th Street for the proposed development as Prairie Trails East. Mr. McLaughlin had conditionally sold the land to Prairie Trails LLC who was represented by Ted Pickus as you may recall over several years of going through the planning process. As a result of the Prairie Trails LLC not meeting the terms of the sale, the McLaughlin family foreclosed on the property. The property is now owned by Nellie Mac LLC which is a family partnership that includes Joann McLaughlin, the mother, Maureen Harty, the daughter, and Jim McLaughlin, the son. The intentions of the current owner, Nellie Mac LLC is to sell the property, however the existing market conditions is making it hard to sell or find a reputable buyer.
Mr. Pollocoff "The plat from what I know of the update to the comprehensive plan is in compliance with the upcoming comprehensive plan. It’s met the requirements that the Village Plan Commission and the Board have put on it through the years, albeit quite a rigorous, lengthy process. And I think a lot of that is not attributed to the plat itself or the concept but probably the lack of candor and straightforwardness that the developer that was developing the plat put on the project himself. I think they created more of their problems than anything."

“It’s going to be tough,” said Village Administrator Michael Pollocoff during Thursday’s work session with the Village Board. “And I don’t see 2011 being any better.”
Pollocoff said village income is being hurt by a 15 percent cut in state shared revenue. Less development has hurt fees and income from building permits, zoning permits and engineering department services, and are projected to decrease a total of $447,635 next year.
Trustee Mike Serpe suggested the public help out. “Maybe they could keep culverts clear and watch the house on the corner where the kids are gathering,” he said.
