ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MONDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1998 (#2434 Carol Olson, Kid's Art School, continued) Van Zomeren commented to the Planning Commission that a $250 fee was charged for this application, because there is not a reduced fee schedule for conditional use permit amendments. Stoddard recommended adding the condition that the City is not liable for the construction or use of the tipi since it may not be covered under the City's Building Codes. Van Zomeren stated she will discuss the construction of the tipi with the building inspector. Hawn moved, Lindquist seconded,to approve Application #2434, 2180 North Shore Drive, amending the conditional use permit permitting the erection of a tipi in the area designated per Staffs drawing, with the recommendation that the$250 fee be waived. Olson indicated she was fine with the motion. Van Zomeren stated the building permit is based on the value of the structure, and will discuss the fee with the building inspector.
