Docks as Principal Uses <br /> Barnhart discussed the item, he is looking for guidance from Council in regards to docks as <br /> principal uses. Barnhart mentioned staff does not recommend change because it may open <br /> up many other possibilities that could cause issues later on. <br /> Johnson thinks that people should be able to use their property as the feel fit. Johnson added <br /> that he thought property rights are being affected here by not allowing it. <br /> Council discussed the various concerns and benefits for allowing docks as principal uses. <br /> 5.
