TO 8:48 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of riailing v;ere <br />duly noted. <br />Mr. and Mrs. Noelting were present. Mr. Neil Weber, the <br />Woelting's Architect, was also present. <br />.'labusth summarized the information presented in her memo <br />dated August 16, 1990. Mabusth said, "I have explained the <br />City's position regarding the height of the dock. At its present <br />height it appears more as a deck than a dock. The dock should be <br />lowered to conform more to the height of the dock sections <br />extending into the lake." <br />Mr. Waber stated that lowering the dock will pose no <br />problem. <br />Bellov/s asked whether it would be appropriate for the <br />Planning Commission to specify an elevation for the dock level. <br />Mabusth replied, "I don't believe we have adequate <br />information to indicate a specific elevation. The ordinary high <br />water mark is 929.4'. We could ask Mr. Weber for his opinion." <br />Mr. Weber suggested 3' above the high water mark. He said, <br />"That would be higher than most docks, but would allow some <br />flexibility. If there is an ice movement, that additional foot <br />or so \rfould make a difference. I would say that is not likely to <br />occur, but it can happen." <br />There v/ere no comments from the public regarding this <br />application and the Public Hearing was closed. <br />It was moved by Hanson, seconded by Moos, to recommend <br />approval of variances and conditional use permit for construction <br />- 14 -
