A conditional use permit in order to construct chimneys 40’8” in height where 30’ is allowed and a 50% height increase is permitted by conditional use permit. Curtis reported at its May 17,2004 meeting, the Planning Commission voted 5-2 to recommend approval of conditional use pennit for the chimney heights and approval of the variance and conditional use pennit for construction and fill within the floodplain incorporating the recommendations of the MCWD and the City Engineer. The Planning Commission recommended denial of the hardcover variance and variance to allow a fence within 75’ of the lake.
